Last night I attended my first Social Media Club Dallas meeting since the relaunch of the club. I must say this was a super organized well thought-out event. My colleague and I geeked it out with the best of the Dallas Twitterati and Foursquare fanatics. The meeting had a great turnout, which isn’t surprising since they kicked off the first meeting of 2010 with the highly esteemed blogger and writer Chris Brogan. Brogan tackled a bunch of my favorite concepts -
- We are all in the Customer Service business.
- If you aren’t living in Twitter search, you aren’t using the tool to it’s full potential.
- Don’t self-promote all the time. If you want readers on your blog don’t write about yourself.
It was great to reconnect with folks that I’ve met at other Dallas events and meet some of my Twitter friends face to face! I also met a few new contacts as well.
Mike Merrill, SMC President, did a great job of kicking off the new year. I have a feeling lots of new locals will be joining Social Media Club Dallas after this event.
Christi,
First, so thankful for Southwest for sponsoring the event. Secondly, I’m glad you and Lindsay could make it and help spread the word about the club. We are continuing to work on better programming as well as networking events.
Hope to see you in the future at our events.
