Post image for Upcoming Meet The New Media Events – Register now for 3 and save $10!

In an effort to help Triangle companies raise awareness in their community and on the web, we’ve scheduled three more 2009 Meet the New Media forums:

  • July 21
  • August 18
  • September 24

Based on the overwhelming positive feedback and response to the June 18 Meet The New Media event, we know that dozens of businesses benefited not only from hearing real world solutions for getting noticed in the press or online, but also attendees were given a perfect opportunity to network and make connections. Connections that turned into CASH!

Some of our June 18 Meet The New Media attendees told us that they left the meeting “inspired, energized and motivated” to spend the rest of the day working solely on their PR and social marketing.

We’ve decided that’s a grand idea for everyone! So, with that in mind, we offer you a chance to take advantage of a very special limited time offer. Register TODAY and get a seat at all 3 of the upcoming 2009 Meet The New Media forums for just $50 and save $10! This offer ends soon, so don’t miss your chance to be here. Go ahead and register today. We look forward to seeing you there!
