Quad Cities Social Strategy Boot Camp Announced


May 6, 2013

After sold-out events in Cedar Rapids and Des Moines, our Social Strategy Boot Camp tour has gotten off to an exciting start. As we look ahead to our upcoming stops in Madison and Omaha, we are looking forward to taking this intensive and interactive strategy boot camp to even more marketers and organizations throughout the Midwest. However, in looking at the region we realized that there was one area we were missing — our neighbors to the East in the Quad Cities. We’ve taken care of this by adding a new stop to our Social Strategy Boot Camp tour. 

The Quad Cities Social Strategy Boot Camp will be on Thursday, July 18th at the River Music Experience in Davenport. As we scouted area venues we knew right off the bat that RME was the place. After our successful events at the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art and the Science Center of Iowa, it seemed only logical to take our next event to the River Music Experience. And the venue more than lives up to its name, with engaging performance spaces, insightful exhibits, and an on-site cafe, which I’m sure we’ll put to good use during our post-event networking.

Cost for the all-day event begins with an early-bird rate of $95 that is currently available for all three upcoming Boot Camps — Madison, the Quad Cities, and Omaha. Thirty days before each event, the cost will go up to $115. Register now and save!

During Social Strategy Boot Camp, I lead the group through topics that include developing a social media business objective, how to engage, content marketing, social media implementation considerations, monitoring, measurement, and ROI. The best part? Attendees leave the event with a draft of their social media plan to share with their team.

Like all stops on our Social Strategy Boot Camp tour, the event is sponsored by multi-channel marketing hub, ExactTarget. We’ve also gotten great local support from our friends at Cedar Rapids/Quad Cities agency Henry Russell Bruce, who will be joining Macy Koch and myself to work with the audience during the event’s interactive breakout sessions.

I can’t tell you how excited I am to bring this event to our neighbors in the Quad Cities. This Boot Camp promises to be an exciting day of learning in the River City. I hope to see you there!
