If you’re planning on joining me and a roster of amazing speakers in Toledo May 18 for the Exploring Social Media Business Summit, the Early Bird Deadline is TONIGHT at 11:55 p.m. ET! Register by then to get $50 off the full price! We’ve got an all day strategy learning session planned that is sure to take business owners and marketing managers from wondering about social media to having a strategic approach to implementing it.

The roster of speakers and their topics are listed on the ESM Business Summit event page, along with the great sponsors who will be in attendance. As you know from the events I produce, each sponsor is asked to prepare a talk for the audience that is focused on our overall theme and not their sales pitch or demo. So attendees will get to learn from our four highlighted speakers - Joe Pulizzi, Allen Mireles, Erik Deckers and myself – as well as some of the innovative thinkers at impressive companies like Awareness Networks, Radian6, Emma, Compendium and Cision.

The event is 8:30-4:30 on May 18 at the Hilton Toledo. We’re providing you with breakfast and lunch and each attendee gets a one-month free subscription to Exploring Social Media as an added benefit. We’ll also have some fun giveaways and plenty of time to network and rub elbows.
