jantschStelznerJohn Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing will be headlining the Small Biz Success Summit along with Mike Stelzner of SocialMediaExaminer.com and 26 other of the world’s leading social media marketing experts.

The goal of the Small Biz Success Summit is to teach you how to use social media to attract quality customers and grow your revenue.

If you are looking for some no-nonsense "tell me what works now" advice about social media marketing, than you should definitely check out this event.

John’s topic will be Social to Local – how to use social media to drive people together, in person, to your store, event, etc.

The summit is a live online event. Instructors present their sessions live in real time, right on your computer screen. In addition to watching their presentations, you can speak directly to the experts, ask questions and get instant answers.

smallbizsummitOne of the things I really like about these online events is you get all the benefit of learning from experts without having to incur the expense and lost time of travelling.

To learn more about this event, visit the Small Biz Success Summit website. Look for the yellow box in the right margin – they are giving away a recorded class from a prior summit so you can get a feel for what it’s all about.
