Social Fresh in Charlotte, NC - A Special Opportunity

May 22nd, 2009

NOTE:  LINKS TO THE DISCOUNTED PRICE ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE AND MY INTERVIEW WITH JASON CAN BE LISTENED TO HERE.

Two years ago, I moved to the Charlotte area.

Before I moved, I spent hours trying to figure out what the online community was like.  I looked for web developers, online marketers, & bloggers.  I wanted to know how my business would do in Charlotte and if I would enjoy living there.

Guess what?  It was difficult.

I don’t know why.  But as you can imagine, I’m pretty good with Google and other search engines, but I could only find so much.

In 2 years, everything has changed!

Charlotte has exploded on-line.  We have regular meetups, social networks, in-person classes, streaming online events, web communities, and more.

The online community here is strong and exciting.  In fact, The Charlotte Observer, The Charlotte Chamber of Commerce, local marketing agencies, Fortune 500 companies and others are noticing, too.

Along comes Social Fresh!

The timing could not be better for a significant Charlotte Social Media event.  And thanks to Jason Keath (@jakrose on Twitter), it’s going to happen.

Social Fresh will be held at the Holiday Inn in Charlotte Center City on Monday August 24th, 2009.  Businesses such as Rubbermaid, Best Buy, IBM, MySpace, and others will be involved.  In fact, many of them will be presenting.

Jason has lined up some great speakers.  You can see them listed on the site and more are in the works.  They will be sharing their insights into Social Media and other topics.

We Have the Best Price Available

So here’s the deal…

I honestly feel very strongly about this event.  I think it’s going to be the best thing that has ever happened in Charlotte for the online community.  Honest!

So I had a little talk with Jason.

At first, he offered me an affiliate code for my readers.  I would make a certain percentage off everyone that signed up.  But I told him I would rather give the savings to my readers.  He was willing.

So now I have the best price available anywhere to attend Social Fresh.  (Cool, eh?)   For a very limited time, I can get you in for about $150.  This price goes up to $230 on June 1.  (See below for update)

This offer is not available to everyone.  And it only lasts until May 31.  (See below for update)

How do you get it?

First, you need to signup as a subscriber (for free) to my newsletter.  (Don’t worry, you can always unsubscribe at any time.)

Then, follow the links at the bottom of this page and you will get the best price available to Social Fresh.

In conclusion…

Please think seriously about this opportunity.  It ends soon.

I’m making no money for doing this.  I just bought my ticket.  I hope you will too.

NOTE:  The original discount code is out of date.  However, starting July 1, Jason gave me a new (15% off) discount code you can now use.  So still use the below links to get a decent discount. (Thanks Jason!)

    I always wait until the last minute to buy tickets to these events….I always pay the highest price and sometimes come very close to missing the event because of limited availability. I procrastinate the purchase of the ticket even though from day 1, I know that I am going. SocialFresh is not an event that I want to take the chance of missing…or paying $100 more later. Count me in!

    Wonderful. Glad to hear it. (I’ve done that more than once too. It’s very frustrating to know you could have saved $100 or more by just being a little more proactive. We all know this is going to be a good event. Might as well spend the money now.)

    Very exciting event here, thanks to Corey for spreading the news and to Jason for putting this together.

    As you guys know, I just moved to Charlotte not quite 6 months ago (wow has it been that long? okay 5 months…) and did the same kind of research about the online community. It seemed as though it was just starting to blossom a good bit.

    The funny thing is Baltimore seems to be doing the same thing in the last 6 months too… when I left there were few events and only a handful of meetups. 6 months later there’s a party every week :) I think we’re seeing that with the spread of social media the “social” part is encouraging offline gatherings too. I really credit much of this to the social media community… as developers have been doing their thing for years and not really getting out and meeting others in the local community to the same degree as is happening today.

    Talk about Just In Time. Thanks Corey, see you there!
    I am so glad that the Charlotte community is blossoming - now I can finally start attending some really valuable, educational, cool events.

    Yea, it’s a quick trip over from Asheville. Glad to hear you will be coming. It should be great.
