"Is there anyone out there who still wants to say that being on Google+ doesn't matter? Anyone? Because when being on Google+ means that you potentially can have your Google+ page leap to the top in those sidebar results, Google+ matters. It matters more than ever before." Danny Sullivan - Search Engine Land

Danny Sullivan's words mirror the sentiments of many experts in search marketing. Google+ is integrated into the world's most powerful search engine - Google. Think about what that means for your business. You will miss out if you don't get involved with Google+ now.

Attend this workshop to find out:
• Why your business should have a Google+ page and how to use that page to drive business
• How Google+ features affect search and how it helps customers find your business online
• How to develop an effective content strategy to keep followers engaged
• Why and how creating authorship gives you an advantage
• What other brands are doing successfully on Google+

You will walk away from this workshop with all the details you need to get started and build a thriving presence on Google+.

Jeffrey Salvitti is with Google's local field marketing initiative here in Philadelphia, whose mission is to empower local organizations and businesses with select Google products such as Google+. In addition, Jeff is a Google+ specialist who has worked with hundreds of businesses including local universities, nonprofits, corporations, sports teams and startups to improve their online presence. Jeff is a Philadelphia native and graduated from Bucknell University with a degree in Economics Google Philadelphia's goal is to work with businesses and organizations of all shapes and sizes to help them leverage the power of Google+. If your business is interested in working with Google you can contact Jeff after the presentation.

Bechara Jaoudeh is a Philly Marketing Labs co-founder and the owner of BagelSpice, a food product business driven solely through social media efforts.

The Crowdsourcing Entrepreneur: Going Platinum

Philadelphia, PA 19104

In a September 2009 article in Forbes, entitled The Myth of Crowdsourcing: Crowds don't innovate - individuals do, Dan Woods argues, “There is no crowd in crowdsourcing. There are only virtuosos…” Some 32 months later, the concept of crowdsourcing continues to build momentum. What does it mean, and how does it work? Is it a powerful tool for entrepreneurs to scale their businesses or just another social mechanism that appeals to our need to affiliate?

Regional business professionals and the entire Drexel community are invited to attend the 2012 Entrepreneur Conference to join in an engaging and unique discussion regarding the power of crowdsourcing. This event also features the Baiada Incubator Competition presentations and awards ceremony.
