Will you be attending the Event Solutions Conference 2010 in Las Vegas, March 8-10th? If so, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. A birdie told me that there will be a Tweetup on Tuesday, March 9th @ 6:30pm at Bally’s Indigo Lounge.
What’s a tweetup, you say? Why only the most fantastic way to meet all of the people you’ve been developing relationships with online. It’s basically a meetup that’s planned from Twitter – and this one started with a tweet from Deb Roth of Pink Inc.
Many people attend conferences and tradeshows for the networking opportunities – a chance to meet new people and hopefully trade business cards. The mountain they climb is standing out from the throngs of other (just as worthy) people trying to do the same thing. The opportunity for those of us who have been conversing and adding value online is that we’re not ‘just another guy trying to sell me something’. We’re friends, thought leaders, change agents, mentors, proteges and everything in between. In other words we’ve had the opportunity to blast past the awkward introductions and are already on our way to building great relationships. This tweetup will finally give us the chance to meet face-to-face. If history dictates future, there’ll be a lot of business card trading going on.
Even if you haven’t been networking online, I encourage you to come out to the tweetup to meet a great group of professionals and industry leaders. Grab a name tag and tell us how we can help you get started in social networking. You may just find yourself rushing back to your hotel room to start up a Twitter account.
I really hope to see you there. Feel free to email me (see the Contact page) and let me know you’ll be coming so I can look out for you. Tweet you later!

Bummer! I’ll already be at the airport heading back to Denver.
I get in on Sunday, so hopefully I can connect with everyone throughout the conference!

That is a bummer! Well, there’s still time to delay the flight 🙂 I’m sure we’ll have a mini-tweetup at the Awards and throughout the conference.

Thank you Lara! Yes to Glenn too, I am sure we will be meeting through out the conference. I will be there for Sunday night 6:30pm – 9:00pm Informal Meet and Greet with Event Solutions Staff – will you? And dare I ask where are we all going to watch the OSCARS?

This is really exciting & we’re sooooo looking forward to meeting you [finally!] and everyone else! Thanks to you & my friend Debra for the “heads-up!”
@Debra Deep, dark secret – I only watch the Oscars for the fashion. But I’ll take any excuse to hang out with you guys.
@Frank – Awesome! Looking forward to seeing you too!

I’ll be there & we definitely need to schedule a meetup with Glenn! Debra, looking forward to spending time with you again and I’ll see you on Sunday night! Wahoo…finally going to meet the infamous Mother of #eventprofs, Lara McCulloch. Can’t wait to see your workshops too.
