January is a great month to briefly look behind. But more importantly, it's time to look ahead. Just as you watch the weather forecast, it's time to review the forecast for Internet marketing in 2011.

We're talking Social Media, Mobile Marketing, Online Video, Google, Facebook, Apple, and more.

But it won't just be my opinion. (Although I have plenty of them!)

I'm honored to include my all-time favorite local Internet marketer & social media consultant, Brandon Uttley.

Brandon (https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonuttley) has a rich, long, history in Internet marketing right here in Charlotte. In fact, he lives just down the street from our office in Huntersville. Most recently he's been a social media consultant and public relations professional working at Wrayward, a full-service creative marketing communications firm in Charlotte.

What I like best about Brandon is that he's smart and speaks his mind. He and I come from very different background (PR vs Training, business vs entrepreneur, social media vs search engines). Yet, we always have extremely interesting conversations.

So this time, you get to watch (and hopefully learn).

If you've never met Brandon, this is your chance to learn from one smart guy. I know I always do. If you're just getting started in Internet marketing or a seasoned professional, I'm sure you'll enjoy this opportunity.

Here's the schedule:

7:00 - 7:30 PM - Networking
7:30 - 8:15 PM - Brandon and I discuss 2011
8:15 - 8:30 PM - Q & A

Here are the topics:
Last year's social media trends
Facebook vs Twitter in 2011
Mobile phones and tablets
Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft
What should small businesses do in 2011?
What's the next big thing?

This is the first ever HIPPO Internet Marketing Meetup. Let's start it off with a bang!

Please RSVP to attend.
