Last week we had another Burlington Social Media Breakfast. Adrian Ho from Zeus Jones spoke to a crowd of 175 people from large and small companies, big agencies and one man shops. Adrian is a big thinker and he challenged us to re-look at the way we market, especially through social media. I find that a challenge with crowds like this is that there are a number of people who just want to “know what to do and what tools to use.” Others are trying to figure out if this would be good for their business. Adrian provided lots to think about and we had a lively Q+A and blog posts afterwards.

Seamus Walsh of Vazt.org filmed the presentation. You can see the video here.
One note, though, to you Breakfast organizers: We had a late, last minute cancellation on Saturday before the Monday event. Being in Burlington, we had almost no chance of replacing the speaker, despite some collaborative hail Mary passes. Lesson learned: prepare a back up! The event still went off well, but it was less than I had planned and that people expected.
