Entrefest Wrap Up

February 28, 2010 by Doug Mitchell · Leave a Comment 

The createWOWmedia team had an amazing time at Entrefest 2010. Thanks again to the UNI team that gave us great support as we streamed and recorded video and audio. We even did 4 episodes of BizTactical and interviewed some very smart entrepreneurs.

The exuberance and passion that I heard in the walls was amazing.  I didn’t get to hear ANY of the sessions this year because we were just too busy in our multimedia streaming suite.  Next year I hope to change that.  Stay tuned for video and more clips coming from our 2 days of participation.

Take a look at the twitter stream from Entrefest and see the great commentary coming directly from the show.

We put together a little video to promote Entrefest.  Hopefully Entrefest 2010 will benefit from this piece where we tried to capture the collaborative, informative, and upbeat environment that surrounds the conference.  The create WOW media team is proud to have been a part of the show!

I was priveleged to speak at Entrefest a couple weeks back and I had the time of my life.  Entrefest is a 2-day conference that delivers training, information, assistance…and awareness to businesses new and old.

My sessions were on Search Engine Optimization and Social Media and they were very well received.  The bottom line is that most businesses and government (state or otherwise) sponsored business programs are not talking about the Internet as marketing platform.  If they are, it’s most likely in the context of a “brochure site”.

I think I can walk away from this conference proud that we made a difference.  Our team hopes to continue the conversation with all of the individuals and agencies that we met…both online and offline.

Thank you so much UNI, Maureen, and Amy for making us feel so welcome.

We’re gearing up to hear the keynote speaker Rhonda Abrams. Her talk is called, “Surprise!  Why Now’s a Great Time to be An Entrepreneur”.

We’re doing the best we can to live stream the event at http://createwowmedia.com/entrefest   Streaming wasn’t part of the original plan for the conference and we got involved about 3 weeks ago…so we’re doing the best we can :)

If you’re following the event on Twitter, we’re using the hashtag #entrefest

Hope to chat w/you online.

Entrefest Conference

Entrefest Conference

I’m getting ready to head off to the Entrefest Conference in Coralville, Iowa this afternoon.  I’m unbelievably excited to immerse myself in throngs of entrepreneurs…some of which are budding “yet to take the plunge” folks while others are probably much more experienced than myself.  The speaking panel alone comprises vast resources that I can’t wait to connect with.  Word is that attendance is WAY up and there will likely be close to 300 “Uber-preneurs” providing positive energy.  Can you feel it too?

I’m giving two breakout sessions:

  1. Search Engine Optimization:  The Basics
  2. Social Media Marketing:  New Name. Same Stuff

I hope to bring a unique approach to each session and can’t wait to field the QA portion of the show. We’ll be capturing my talks and others on video AND:

We’ll be live streaming my sessions and others, providing real time chat, and the twitter stream at http://createwowmedia.com/entrefest so tune in at your convenience and see what we’re cookin’ up.
