Learn to Never Market Alone – Online answers over Pizza

Currently this event is off as an official Biznik event. I will be having dinner Q&A at the same location, but it will not be a Biznik only event.

The format will be different than described due to a communication problem between Biznik and I. I also invited some non-Bizniks last night, so hopefully there will be someone there to have conversation with.

I don't want to penalize anyone for being a no-show, advertise a non-filled event, or seem unprepared for the night since they didn't get a chance to send in questions the day beforehand.

The original concept for this event is below:

Come enjoy Pizza and Beer at The Rock- wood fired pizza.

This is a simple breakdown of applied assistance. Everyone will have 2-3 minutes for an introduction while we enjoy drinks and food, followed by an opportunity to ask one question in regards to promoting your business online. This could be about affiliate marketing, search engine marketing, social communities, profile questions, online public relations, reputation control, blogging, social media, newsletter marketing, and everything in-between.

If you register- you have to send your question(s?) to Barry Hurd at least a day ahead of our meeting if you would like a thoughtful and researched answer from Barry. All the questions and answers will be shared with the group and through conversation you'll find a comprehensive solution to the problem at hand.

There are several benefits to meeting:

1- You will leave with your question answered. 2- You will network with professionals with like-minded questions. 3- You will have the opportunity to share what you learn.

You will also have a chance to experience some great pizza.

Attending members will be encouraged to network with each other, but the group is limited to ten people to make sure everyone has at least five to ten minutes to drill down into your question and get your answers. If you really like your answers and find benefit in attending, Barry accepts payment for detailed answers during dinner sessions in the form of various lagers, ales, and spirits.

Commentary and information will be documented and provided back to attendees for on-going discussion and moving everyone forward on specific goals.

*If you have attended a previous "Answers over Pizza" event, please RSVP by sending a personal note to Barry. First time event attendees will be given preference so that everyone has a chance to attend the smaller group.

  I attended Barry's event last time and it was very helpful. Do you know how to attract traffic to your website? How to stand out among other professionals like you? How can you draw in more interest to your blog or make it more interesting to read? Do your clients read your newsletter? Well, he answered questions of this nature last time. We were all taking notes. I even got to shut up for once- for a change. :) This guy knows his stuff. I'll attend it again if he lets me... :)

  Barry - I would love to attend this if anyone cancels. Will keep an eye on this event to see if it turns out there is a space. Coming from Bellingham, Lynnwood is very convenient - rather than further south.... thanks, Lori

  Barry is really, really intelligent. His sphere of interest and ability is really deep. He really kicks it out of the ballpark-impressive plus.
