Frontend Tricks + Marketing Strategies

If you are a merchant utilizing Magento or a developer customizing Magento websites, come join us to learn more about Magento, meet fellow Magento experts and enjoy some pizza!

Our August 15, meetup will be held in Absolunet's downtown-KC location at 6:00pm.

Location: 140 Walnut St Suite 204, Kansas City, MO 64106

This meetup is sponsored by SwiftOtter and Absolunet.

Joseph Maxwell, President of SwiftOtter (a fast-growing Magento Community Insider) will talk about "Delving into the Magento frontend: making magic out of mystery." The Magento frontend with LESS and RequireJS can seem obfuscated and cryptic to use. However, there is much power that is available to make a developers work easier. Joseph recently wrote the Frontend Developer Study guide (from SwiftOtter) and will share about his journey to better understanding of the Magento frontend.

Jason Hughes, VP of US Sales and Operations from Absolunet (a Magento Gold Partner and 2016 Magento North American Shooting Start) will talk about "The Magento Ecosystem: the core eCommerce disciplines you need to increase sales." Magento is an incredibly powerful platform. With the new modules and 3rd-party integrations that Magento has recently bundled, that power is expanding. Jason will share tools that Absolunet has used to increase merchant sales across markets. Some of the tools covered will include Product Information Management (PIM) and syndication with inRiver, personalization with Dynamic Yield and web accessibility with Siteimprove.

Come join Kansas City's Magento community on our quest for more knowledge.
