Kansas City marketers, business owners and social media evangelists have a the opportunity for an up close and personal insider’s glimpse into the workings of Google and how important it is to today’s business world. KC Small Business/Thinking Bigger Media Publications is bringing Doug Merrill, former CIO of Google, and author of Getting Organized in the Google Era to Kansas City on Wednesday, March 31st as part of their Thinking Bigger Speaker Series.
The event will be held at the Overland ParkConvention Center, and doors will open at 11am, with lunch served at 11:30am, and the presentation to begin shortly thereafter.
Merrill will take attendees on an inside tour of the inner workings of a company that is, in my opinion, an essential part of business growth in today’s marketplace. He’ll provide scoop on things like the new Google Apps programs, more powerful search techniques and other digital tools that are, or should be, an integral part of every marketer’s strategy. You’ll walk away with information and tactics that you can implement in your business right away.
