Here’s who this event was designed for:

#1: The social media marketing professional: If your job is to manage social media marketing, but you’re struggling to keep up with the ever-changing nature of social marketing, this event is for you. You’ll be amazed how many people you connect with who are are just like you.

What makes Social Media Marketing World so unique are the friendly attendees who either own or work for businesses with fewer than 100 employees. But we also attract plenty of marketers from big businesses. For example, in 2017 marketers attended from Apple, Cisco, CBS Interactive, IBM, Deloitte, Hilton, Humana, Macy’s, Mayo Clinic, McDonald’s, ReMax, Reuters, Sprint, Toyota, the United Way, UPS, and WalMart.

This is a great opportunity to connect, share ideas, brainstorm, and amplify your social marketing with your peers, marketing professionals, and experts.

#2: The influencer, blogger, video creator, or podcaster: If you regularly create content to establish yourself or your business as a thought leader—or you want to build a sustainable business on the back of your social content—we have an entire sub-conference just for you. We call it the Creator Ticket!

This event will help you get more attention online and better monetize your content. There are also many marketers attending who are seeking for creators just like you! That alone is worth the entry price. You don’t get that level of networking and connecting anywhere else.

#3: Are you new to social marketing or want to be a creator? If you’re relatively new to social media marketing or you aspire to be a creator, just know that the industry is in constant flux. This means even the most experienced marketer is often restarting the adventure, over and over. You have an opportunity to embrace the latest techniques at this event. So while this event is ideal for the experienced social marketer or content creator, even a beginner will find value.

Here’s why you should attend this conference:
