Mitch Joel and the Media Hacks Must-Listen-To-Podcast

Mitch is a published author (Six Pixels of Separation: Everyone Is Connected. Connect Your Business to Everyone. affiliate link) and runs Twist Image, a Marketing firm out of Montreal. Mitch produces some of the best marketing and tech content out there, his blog: http://www.twistimage.com/blog/

My favourite content that Mitch produces is a podcast called Media Hacks (free to download from iTunes or listen to from his site http://www.twistimage.com/podcast/ - make sure you look for the Media Hacks casts...). He now has three different podcasts, but Media Hacks is my must-listen-to-cast.

Media Hacks has five core individuals (Mitch Joel, Chris Brogan, C.C. Chapman, Hugh McGuire and Julien Smith) that join a conference call, and they essentially have a “fire-side” chat about what is happening in marketing and tech. Watch out though, this is not necessarily a cast rated for the whole family, depending on who’s on the call there can be a stream of (often hilarious rants by @julien) curse words.

Mitch will be in Calgary on June 14, 2010 at the Art Of Marketing “Innovation and Marketing Conference” at the Epcor Center. http://bit.ly/aRsmCX

Hope you enjoy it all,

The Art of Marketing Event in Calgary

The Art of Marketing Event in Calgary
Presented by Microsoft Dynamics CRM
Full Day Marketing / Social Media Class

Okay Calgary, we have been asking for it....more Marketing and Social Media conferences. The Art of Marketing is coming to Calgary! A line up of influential marketers will be in Cowtown on June 14th, 2010.

It is a one day conference that features six different speakers. Tickets are $399 or $499 for preferred seating.

I was sold on the event when I saw that Gary Vaynerchuk and Mitch Joel will be speaking. If you haven't read Mitch's Marketing blog check it out, it's one of the best: http://www.twistimage.com/blog/, and his book: Six Pixels of Separation: Everyone Is Connected. Connect Your Business to Everyone. (affiliate link)
And check this video out on You Tube of Gary Vaynerchuk: http://bit.ly/9uHPsk , and Gary's book: Crush It!: Why NOW Is the Time to Cash In on Your Passion
(affiliate link) I prefer the Audio Version, his voice, and he talks a bit more than just what is in the book.

Here's the full line up of speakers:

• Mitch Joel - Digital Marketing & Social Media http://www.twistimage.com/blog/
• Sally Hogshead - Persuasion & Influence http://sallyhogshead.com/
• Chip Heath - Strategy & Communications http://heathbrothers.com/
• Gary Vaynerchuk - Personal Branding in the New Media Landscape http://garyvaynerchuk.com/
• Max Lenderman - Branding & Experiential Marketing http://www.experiencethemessage.com/
• Sir Ken Robinson - Innovation & Creativity http://sirkenrobinson.com/skr/

I hope the conference is as good as I am expecting it to be... see you there.
