Change Isn’t Coming…It’s Here

Monday, April 30th, 2012

The Agents of ChangeThe most important channels today are search, social & mobile. Here’s a conference with all three.

If you’ve been following this blog for a while you know that for the past few years I’ve been running a conference called Social Media FTW with a couple of friends.

We retired that brand after three successful years but I wasn’t quite done.

So this year I started a new conference that would focus on the three most important channels for businesses and organization today: search, social & mobile. These are the Agents of Change.

Earlier today we launched the website for The Agents of Change Digital Marketing Conference.

This all-day conference is happening in Portland, Maine and online on 9.14.12. 

And while the speaker lineup is just getting started, we’ve got some amazing speakers already lined up:

  • Chris Brogan, co-author of Trust Agents and Google+ for Business
  • Amy Porterfield, co-author of Facebook Marketing All-In-One for Business
  • Derek Halpern, brains behind the insanely popular marketing website Social Triggers
  • Rich Brooks, who hasn’t done anything, but might. One day.

So, how much are tickets? you’re probably wondering.

The physical ticket is $199 and the digital ticket is $99. The digital ticket gives you access to the live stream and you can watch the presentations over and over again for a full year!

But for a limited time only, we’re offering an early bird ticket: you can get the physical ticket for only $99 and the digital ticket for only $49…that’s over 50% off each!

But wait…there’s more!

If you order the physical ticket by 11:59pm, Tuesday, 5.1.12, we’ll throw in the digital ticket for free! (And yes, it’s still only $99. That’s $298 worth of edutainment for only $99!) Why would you want both the physical ticket AND the digital ticket? So you can watch all the presentations over and over again, or see presentations you may have missed.

If you can’t make it to Portland, Maine on 9.14.12 we’ve still got an amazing deal for you. The digital ticket is only $25 during this 36 hour sale!

Whether you plan to attend in person or virtually, don’t miss this amazing, very limited sale.

Get your tickets now!

How to Build Your Blog Subscriber Base

Derek HalpernDerek Halpern knows what makes people tick online. He’s here to share that insight with you.

Rich Brooks: I’m here today with Derek Halpern who is the brains behind socialtriggers.com and we’re going to be talking a lot about what Derek has done with his website and blog. Derek, thank you for talking with me today.

Derek Halpern: Thanks for having me; really happy to be doing this.

Rich Brooks: Excellent. I don’t remember how I found your blog but I remember when I got there that I was immediately struck by a number of things that you were doing that were different than what other people seem to be doing. It definitely had a different look and feel, and I’m talking beyond just the fact that you have a lot of white space going on, which is always a refreshing change for any blog.

One of the biggest differences that I immediately noticed is what you call your feature box, which is the big box at the top of the homepage on your blog. Can you tell me a little bit about what you’re trying to accomplish by using that feature box?
