Austin, TX (PRWEB) January 05, 2013
Digital marketing strategies need to stay cutting-edge, which is why Digital Marketer is proud to be presenting its fourth annual Traffic and Conversion Summit, being held in San Francisco, California on January 18-20, 2013.
Digital Marketer is excited to be organizing such an important event to the industry. Ryan Deiss, founder and creator of DM and the Traffic and Conversion Summit, is gathering his team to provide the kind of content-driven experience marketers are looking for. He will be on stage with some of the brightest minds in the business, and share what works in the world of digital marketing.
The module-based teaching and training manuals provided by the summit will give marketers the insight they need to understand and implement the kind of strategies that work best in today’s fast-paced and competitive online markets.
A group of exciting attendees are already slated as guest speakers, including William Shatner, Guy Kawasaki, Tucker Max, and Perry Belcher. Each will bring their unique experience to the stage and offer valuable advice on building a brand, promoting a business, and emerging as a front-runner in the world of digital marketing.
The three-day event will feature keynote speeches, informational meetings, and breakout sessions that will give people the power to develop their own master digital marketing plans. The after-hours events will also help attendees network and build business relationships in a comfortable, relaxed setting. The 2013 Traffic and Conversion Summit will enhance any marketer’s efforts as they move into the next era of traffic building and conversion enhancement.
Digital Marketer is advising any interested participants to learn as much as they can about the 2013 Traffic and Conversion Summit, and to do it fast.

Final schedules for the event will be determined closer to the January dates, but Digital Marketer’s website, blog, and emails will keep attendees aware of any announcements.

Maryland Association of CPAs Features Innovative Technologies and Social Media to Increase Engagement and Collaboration at Innovation Summit
Towson, MD (PRWEB) May 15, 2013
The Summit theme of Innovation, Connection, and Collaboration is designed to showcase innovation in the CPA Profession and features almost 20 of the top thought leaders in the Profession, top technology vendors and leading innovations in Accounting Standards, XBRL, Healthcare and more. All in an event designed to spark serendipity and innovation.
A recent IBM Global CEO study identified collaboration as the number-one trait CEOs are seeking in their employees, with 75 percent of CEOs calling it critical. The CPA Horizons 2025 Report by the American Institute of CPAs also identified collaboration in the top five skills needed by CPAs in the future. MACPA Chair Anoop Mehta said, “We are very excited to be able to use these technologies to enhance and accelerate collaboration among summit attendees, sponsors and speakers. These relationships will be instrumental in keeping our members ahead of the rapid pace of change we find ourselves in.”
Here is how these exciting technologies will be used at the Innovation Summit.
ThinkTank by Group Systems (http://www.groupsystems.com) is a powerful crowdsourcing, crowd-computing, and group decision support platform that wows participants, significantly accelerating and enhancing outcomes, creating a profound collective experience for participants. It will be used in a special session (on May 16th) with Learning Leaders across the CPA Profession titled, “Turning Training and Learning into Business Results” by the Business Learning Institute’s Richard Flanagan, author of The Six Disciplines of Breakthrough Learning and Bob Dean, CPA, CLO, Founder of Dean Learning & Talent Advisors
Flybits (http://flybits.com) is an exciting location-aware technology that connects people to places called “zones”. It is the way we are distributing conference materials to participants at the Innovation Summit. It’s an incredible technology that delivers specialized content to your mobile device based on where you are at any moment. Want some fun? See what pops up when you visit a vendor’s booth (aka “Flybits zone”). Zone’s will be created for the MACPA and our Platinum Sponsors, CPA2Biz (http://www.cpa.com), Sage (http://na.sage.com), CCH (http://www.cch.com), Ziptr (http://www.ziptr.com), and Simplified Innovations (http://simplifiedinnovations.com).
Conferences.io (http://www.conferences.io) is an innovative web-based audience participation application used to increase engagement and make learning more collaborative. Special polling and social Q&A features allow for constant participation during and after events and will be used in several sessions at the Summit.
MACPA Groups (http://cpa.tc/roups) is our newest tool to help MACPA members connect and collaborate and share the “wisdom of the crowd”. The Federal Tax group was recently used to crowd-source MACPA’s testimony for the House Ways & Means Committee about the “tax season from hell.”
Social Media will be used extensively at the Summit as a connection and learning tool. Special pre-summit webcasts were held with our members (Social Media Quick Start) and with sponsors (How to Tip the Adoption Curve) to teach them specifics around ”how to crush a conference”. A special Social Media Guide has been created to connect people to our sponsors and speakers. Follow the conference at hashtag #MDSUMMIT13.
Jennifer Warawa, Sage’s vice president of partner programs and channel sales, said in a recent press release, “This event is different from any other in the profession, so our approach to how we engage with the show and its participants is different. Sage is getting social with the help of MACPA and there are several initiatives planned to get everyone online and talking in the social channels.
MACPA CEO, Tom Hood, CPA,CITP, CGMA said, “we are now at a point where the collaboration curve can help us jump the experience curve. We are excited to see how these innovative technologies can help our members amplify their connections at our Summit and increase their ability to collaborate for years to come.”
