Social Media Help Is Right Around the Corner

Are you still trying to figure out how social media strategy applies to your business? Maybe you have an idea, but are struggling with figuring out how to implement it. I'll be moderating a social media panel discussion on Thursday hosted by Boulder Marketing Group. It will be a great discussion. I'll be there with three of the smartest guys I know: Doyle Albee, President and New Media Practice Director at Metzger Associates; James O. Clark, Co-Founder of Room 214; and Justin Wyman, Director of Business Development for Collective Intellect.

The event is almost full! Go to http://www.bouldermarketinggroup.com/events.cfm to register!

If you're already planning on attending, make sure to say hello!

Bring on the Green

I volunteer with a group called the Clean Tech Open, a proven and successful non-profit that transforms a clean tech concept into a viable business. Yesteday, we met with Colorado Governor Bill Ritter and he made some amazing statements about our competition and what we can do for the future of America.

The Clean Tech Open really helps to inspire the world to look at Colorado, the West and the United States of America for a different energy and environmental future for our kids and our grandkids," Ritter said.

9News, the local NBC affiliate, had a great story on it. You can view it here.

You can also read more about the event (written by yours truly) here.

I feel so excited to be working in an industry that is just taking off and really making a differernce in the world. It reminds me a little bit like the old days, when telecomm was on fire in the mid-90s. Only this time, it's not about making money, it's about saving the Earth and reestablishing the United States as a global market leader. It's really something to watch.

We're planning to announce the Rocky Mountain regional finalists in the next week. I'll keep you posted.
