We are so thrilled to be a visionary leader sponsor of Craigslist Boot Camp. Not just because it’s the right thing to do by supporting our community and further educational development amongst non-profit professionals but because we get so much out of attending these things ourselves. We’re big believers in the idea, the cause and the movement.
Craigslist Boot Camp represents the forefront of non-profit thinking with the highest caliber of professionals, consultants and vendors. I’ll be attending a couple of the sessions to hear what people have to say. I think this is my schedule.
How To Think Like A Social Media Marketing Genius – 8 Principles for Success Inspired by Einstein (1:05pm, Zellerbach)
Presenter: Beth Kanter
A social social media strategy takes more than setting up a Facebook Fan Page or writing a blog. In this session, you’ll learn the secrets to crafting and deploying an ultra successful strategy.
Beth Kanter is a personal favorite of mine. I love her blog.
Future Tech (10:15am, Wheeler Hall)
Presenters: Peter Deitz, David Greenberg, Ramya Raghavan, and Marnie Webb
Moderator: John Scott
When it comes to technology, the future is now. The Future Tech panelists are experts in the development and implementation of new technologies that work for the social good. Learn about both community-driven and corporate tech initiatives that help you make a difference in your own communities, and hear about the opportunities and challenges of taking on cutting edge technology tools.
I am really interested in hearing the panel’s thoughts. If you have time check out Peter Deitz’s website, Social Actions. I love their API.
Get Started Using Social Media – Today! (3:05pm, Zellerbach Playhouse)
Presenters: Britt Bravo and Eric Leland
Using social media effectively requires two seemingly diverse tactics: planning and experimentation. You’ll learn what questions to ask to create your organization’s social media plan, as well as tips and tricks for getting started using social media quickly and inexpensively.
I got the chance to meet Eric a couple of weeks ago and I am interest is seeing what wisdom he spreads to the world. I also really want to meet Brit Bravo as her blog is often in my Google Reader.
What are you going to go look at and what do you hope to get out of Craigslist Book Camp?
Oh and come by the booth and say Hi!
