Ok guys here’s the deal. The Search Marketing Salon launch event in San Francisco is tonight! And I’ll be very honest with everyone, it is going to be packed. We were planning to have around 60 people; we are now over 100. I have mulled over whether or not I should close the RSVP list but I decided against it. I don’t want to exclude anyone from this event. A very special thank you to all of you who helped spread the word about the group. Let’s keep that momentum going! We are already planning our next event. Remember this group is about all of you, if you have ideas or suggestions, I want to hear them, I’m going to try to get a suggestion box going at the event, but if not, then please e-mail me or leave a comment on the blog. If you have no idea what the Search Marketing Salon is, then please visit the link.
So, I promised all of you a sneak peek at some of the folks attending and here it is:
- Michael Brito- Social Media Evangelist at Intel
- Tony Adam- Program Manager at PayPal & SEO Expert

I’ll leave it here for now, many other great folks attending as well. This is your time to network and mingle with some of the best and brightest minds in the industry. Bring your questions, stories, and expertise. Don’t forget yours truly will be there as well and I expect all of you to come introduce yourselves!
Once again guys, please spread the group info to as many people as you can, the group is growing at a rapid pace. We really want to start expanding and holding events in other states or countries, but we can’t do this without your help.
