Search is Social & ROI in Social Panels

Next week, Social Media Week will commence and I’m proud to announce that both my business partner and I will be panelists at two very social events.

The event I’m speaking at is called Search is Social. The panel is being moderated by Sean Percival, Director of Online Marketing at MySpace and Founder of lalawag which I’m really excited about. He used to work with my old boss, Ben Padnos, and my business partner Rex Freiberger at Tsavo. Additional panelists include Tony Adam of MySpace, Josh Ochs of Media Leaders and Erica Forette of Internships.com.

We will be discussing the impact that search engines play on social media networks and vice-versa, most namely how social networking profiles now seem to “dominate” search engine results pages and how some of the “search” share has gone to people searching on social networks for information instead of Google.

My business partner Rex will be speaking at an event later in the week that, in my opinion, is going to be the best event of the week. It is a two part event that features panelists from huge world-wide agencies. In fact, I think that this is event is going to be so good that it’s ALREADY SOLD OUT but check it out anyways!
