Speaking at the Erickson Barnett event “Tips on Building Communities

Hey guys, thought I’d let you know that I’m going to be speaking at the Erickson Barnett event “Tips on Building Communities” on November 12th from 8:30am to 10am. It’s at the Tower Club in Vienna, VA and free.  I’d highly recommmend checking it out.

Before joining Clearspring as Developer Community Manager, it feels like I knew a lot about the tools that you could use to build community but I hadn’t done much to put them into practice.

Over the last 9-10 months, I feel like my eyes have opened a lot to what works and what doesn’t.   I’ve noticed a few folks that really get the importance of building relationships between them and their customers and how incredibly successful they’ve been.  On the flip side, I’ve seen folks that continue to mainly use that one-way blast communications and continually lose the hearts and minds of their customers.

Well, during my time at the event, I’m going to be looking to share my thoughts and experiences.  So, you coming??  It’s free.
