Social Media Business Forum to Feature Laura Fitton

October, 20, 2009 , by David

Friday at NC Central, business leaders and marketers will gather to hear panels from social media leaders from across the nation and around the Triangle.

One of the Speakers attending is Laura Fitton. Fitton was an early adopter who used Twitter to catapult her career as an author and raise her profile online to that of an advisor to the biggest names in tech, including Guy Kawasaki. Her company, Pistachio Consulting, was the first Twitter for Business consultancy. Fitton also started http://oneforty.com/, a resource website that catalogs Twitter tools.

In addition, the local heavy weights will be there too, folks like the infamous Wayne Sutton, Kipp Bodnar, Jeff Cohen, Ryan Boles of OurHashTag.com (the organizers) as well as almost every Internet Guru working in the Triangle today. Its going to be a huge opportunity for local businesses to learn about how they can use social media for their success.

The event is tailored to fit the needs of folks at every level, whether just starting out or seasoned pros looking to optimize their programs, there is sure to be plenty of learning to go around.
