Welcome!

Hi I’m Bret Rowe and I want to get social. I am a social media observer and I want to share my thoughts about social media marketing as well as learn from other PDXer’s who are marketing themselves through Social Media.

If you are a merchant, speaker, consultant or marketer interested in hearing how others are growing their businesses and making money through social media make sure you are in attendance.

Here’s my initial list of topics that I’d like to discuss and I think are important

Using Friend Feed as your social cockpit
How Google’s friend connect will be the ultimate social marketing app
How brick and mortar businesses use social media to drive traffic to their locations
How coaches, speakers and consultants are turning social media connections into real dollars.

If you see my social profiles you’ll know I’m a marketer food enthusiast and Wine drinker. I’m hoping that these meetups are a learning experience as well as mixing in some of the things that I call fun.

The first Meetup is scheduled for Tuesday July 14, 2009, I will be choosing a location in the SW area of Portland.

Looking forward to meeting you at the Meetup!
