-> Speaker Spotlight: Brian SolisTalking with Brian Solis about digital addictions, the alarming effects of social media & the overuse of phones in our lives - issues that affect society in this modern & digitalized world.
Do we only matter when people are reacting to our posts or reaching out to us? Is our life measured by what we see on social media? Are we going to look or feel better with filters? Will others feel better? There is an overwhelm of notifications every single day that pulls us out of whatever we do & distracts us. Do we want our lives back? Once we have awareness, we can take ownership. We all have a choice of what we do online AND offline. No one will take care of you other than you. Check his tips here. |
-> Speaker Spotlight: Pat FlynnBuild your Market Map based on the 3Ps with Pat Flynn!
- Places - go where your target audience is - which socialmedia platform? Live events? Facebook Groups? - People - who are the influencers they already like, follow AND trust - Products - what products have been already offered, what does your target audience think about them. Every business can solve a problem. Map the 3Ps, do a good marketresearch, have conversations while you build relationships. Then offer what you have. :) |
