New Media Marketing Conference Round-up
So, I posted on the AlterSage FB group that I would do a round-up of the NMM Conference, but alas, time ran away with me….besides when there are already some great roundups available, I’m not going to rehash what’s already been said.
Take a look at the following sites / blogs of the conference:
- Â As it happened
- JoinIn60Second - round-up of all sites posting
- BizCommunity - 5 Take-aways ala Scott Gray
- Zoopy - videos of presentations
I will however give you feedback from the workshop that we hosted on the last day. Albeit that we had attendance of about 10 people, I feel that we made a difference and contributed to their understanding of Online Marketing techniques. The feedback that I had personally received from the attendees of the workshop was that they would have preferred to have attended our workshop prior to the speakers, as then they would have understood the topics that much more. Well, I’m glad that I could at least make sense of everything they listened to, afterwards 
Joey and I also attended the Joburg 27. Vastly different format to the Cape Town 27, in the sense that it’s definitely more ‘business oriented’ whereas Cape Town is more informational and general community catch-up IMO.
In general it was great to make future business contacts, meet new people, catch-up with ones we already know, and also put faces to handles on twitter
