It looks like I'll be attending this "boot camp" event on February 12th before hitting NADA. I know most here are already very cognizant of SEO, but are you an expert? I wouldn't call myself one, but I want to be! With some of our manufacturers telling our Execs and GMs that they should be putting a big chunk of their 2010 ad budgets into SEO, I am doing all I can to get better.....because I'm about to have quite a few more SEO fans at Checkered Flag! That means a bigger budget to play with and more accountability.

I bet I'm not alone here.

I am fortunate to be in a town where there are some very proactive SEO groups, and get to attend a few events. However, none of these are automotive related. So, I am really looking forward to this seminar Brian is putting on - and applaud him for doing so

Welcome aboard Alex. The Automotive Marketing Boot Camp on February 12th is designed to give attendees to equivalent of a whole day of customized tutoring, coaching and strategies with industry leaders who are also practitioners of their work.

Since its the day before the official start of the NADA Convention which runs Feb 13th-15th, a trip out of the dealership can be doubly leveraged.

With everyone bringing their laptop and classroom sizes limited to 15 people, we believe that the experience will be very meaningful for automotive professional who want to build strategies specifically for their dealership. The teachers will know in advance who will be attending so pre-analysis will be done.

There will be no last minute sign-ups.

When the people who attend the boot camp get back in their dealership they will have the strategies lined up to implement and on their laptop ready to go. Best of all, attendees will have ample time to network and ask questions about their dealership marketing plan privately.

The Automotive Marketing Boot Camp shirts will be a classic. The staff will reach out to get your shirt size...see you in Orlando. Anyone who registers in November will save $100.
