Brad Kleinman and his team just completed the 3rd Annual eMarketing Techniques Conference to a sold out crowd of 250 at Corporate College East in Cleveland.

You can see audio, video and ideas from keynote speaker Rick Burnes and plenary speaker Matt Dickman.

Besides running the successful event, Brad Kleinman also co-presented (with David Toth) a session titled Facebook For Business. As Brad told the audience, "It’s not just about your website… It’s about your web strategy."

There are two things I really like about this conference. The first is the quality of the speakers and the relevance of the topics they present. The presenters are a who's who of SEO and Social Media experts in the region.

The second is that from the beginning, Kleinman and his team have "eaten their own dog food." They have used social media and eTechniques to plan, advertise and execute their events.

And then they use more techniques during the event (many of us communicated via Twitter during the event for example - #eTechniques) and after the event to spread the knowledge and connections. The Great Lakes Geek is proud to be a sponsor of this must-attend annual event.

You can also follow Brad on Twitter and be sure to join the LinkedIn group eMarketing Techniques to connect with conference speakers and attendees.

In this video and podcast interview with Brad Kleinman, we discuss the event and the use of Social Media. Then Brad gives a few key tips from his Facebook for Business session.

2007 eMarketing for Entrepreneurs
"Marketing is the most important function of a small business."

That's what John Jantsch, author of Duct Tape Marketing: The World's Most Practical Small Business Marketing Guide said in his keynote to the eMarketing for Entrepreneurs event at Corporate College on May 4, 2007.

When you combine the importance of marketing with the cutting edge and powerful tools that the Internet offers, you get eMarketing.

The eMarketing for Entrepreneurs conference was the vision of Brad Kleinman and the sold out conference and satisfied and excited attendees are testimony that his vision was on track.

One of the interesting parts of the conference was how they used eMarketing tools to attract interest and sell out. They used the techniques that were taught throughout the conference - eMail marketing, podcasts, RSS, blogs, search engine optimization, on-line surveys, mobile marketing and other eTools.

The bad news is there was space for only a couple hundred people at the sold out event. The good news is that some of the sessions, including the keynote, were videotaped and will be available at their website.

Even better news, as you will hear in this interview with Brad Kleinman, is that plans are in the works for a similar conference this fall with a focus on Sales and a 2nd annual eMarketing event next spring.
