It is with great pleasure that we announce the next event of the WITI network in Santa Barbara, California!

We invite you to join us for an enticing event on one of today’s hottest topics: Social Media and Marketing!

Ever been confused about Social Marketing? Wondered if your plan was effective or not? Been unable to keep up with the rapid changes in Social Marketing?

Lorin and Tom will first wipe away all the noise and confusions associated with social and Internet marketing. Then they will look at why you should put a social and Internet marketing plan in place for yourself or your business right away. Finally they will look at how you can build a plan and strategy that can be implemented quickly, efficiently and affordably. You will walk away from this session with a whole new perspective on social and Internet marketing, its importance and how it can be practically implemented with great results!

Our event will be held at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where you will meet great women and men who share a passion for technology and a desire to enhance their careers. It will be an inspirational and fun evening of refreshments, networking, and a dynamic keynote duo of speakers.

Bring your questions for Tom and Lorin. We look forward to seeing you at the event!
