Open networking will begin at 6 p.m., followed by 30-second introductions and then our featured speaker.

"Raise Your Advertising IQ in 20 Minutes or Less"
Advertising is a science first, and an art, second. Success can be reduced to tried and true formulas. Barry Cohen, author of the book 10 Ways to Screw Up an Ad Campaign, will show you how smaller companies can avoid critical mistakes and out-advertise their competitors, even when they can't outspend them. He covers both messaging and media do's and don'ts.
