On January 12, 2011 you will have the opportunity to attend Social Media Marketing Las Vegas and receive social media marketing tips, tools and techniques.

I had the chance to talk with Eric Peterson and David Koloski this morning, thank you guys for taking time to talk this morning. They are two of Las Vegas’s active Social Media Marketing participants and will be featured speakers at #SMLasVegas. One thing David mentioned that I agree with whole heartedly is: “No one is a social media expert!” Social Media Marketing is an insatiable little beast and requires it’s participants to continually educate themselves.

Eric and David shared valuable tips, insights, and a few of their secrets to successfully using social media marketing at 10 properties here in Las Vegas. Yes I did say 10, they manage 10 properties meaning 10 Twitter profiles, 10 Facebook Pages, I thought my head was spinning just managing my two identities @VAGirlFriday and @TheLVTweetup.

Social Media Marketing Las Vegas is a one-day event that will be held at the Flamingo Hotel. It’s not everyday that you can be schooled by a team of renowned marketing experts who will provide guidance on how to effectively engage with customers via social media. They will give tips on how to maximize the impact of your campaigns and offer insights into new services to try and trends to watch out for.

Just to wet your appetite here is a peak at the topics:

Social Media for the Hospitality and Gaming Industry
How NOT to Go Viral
B2B Social Media Marketing That Works Today
Stream Marketing and Content Automation – Drive Actions Drive Results
What about us? … Social Media Marketing for the Little Guys

This video shows @LewisHowes and @JohnChow playing in the main exhibit area of BlogWorld 2009.

Lewis Howes spoke on “LinkedIn for Viral Campaigns” and after listening to him I left the room with a new found respect for LinkedIn. Lewis always, always, gives great content in his webinars, and he gave all of us a gift for attending his session. The gift “LinkedIn Master Strategies – How to make a name for yourself, increase opportunities, and dominate your market on LinkedIn” You can get your own copy now for $19.95 and this isn’t an affiliate link (but Blog World is). I refer back to it on a regular basis and think you will do the same after you get your copy.

Here are the Titles for the first 2 chapters:

The Power of Adding Key Words
What is your Status? It’s a daily friend

One of the most valuable tips Lewis gave was to join Groups and participate in them. As an open networker I accept all invitations to connect on LinkedIn, so let’s get connected. Groups allow you the freedom of not having to know your potential connection’s email address. That is only one powerful way participating in Groups will bring you benefits, Lewis gives other reasons in his ebook.

Here is another video I captured, sorry about the audio I was in the back of the room this year I will have a microphone for my camera! I hope you plan on registering for BlogWorld 2010 the Early Bird Discount Code is EBIRD.
