Making The Brand. Social Media For The Long Haul.

I've got an offer for you that you can't refuse.

At Deep Focus, we always say that we’re about bringing brands closer to people — and people closer to each other. I don’t think you’ll find a better group of people than my friends Gary Vaynerchuk and Brian Morrissey (Digital Editor at Adweek) to explore that philosophy with. I’m proud to be sharing a stage with them at a discussion called, Making The Brand. Social Media For The Long Haul live at the Conde Nast building on Friday 2/13 at 11am. Here's the official description:

'Making the Brand: Social Media For the Long Haul' with Gary Vaynerchuk, Ian Schafer, and Brian Morrissey

Witness the fireworks in what's sure to be an insightful and fast-paced morning of strategies, tactics, tricks and tips as social media heavyweights, Gary Vaynerchuk, Host of WineLibrary.TV, and Ian Schafer, Founder/CEO of interactive marketing agency Deep Focus, "bring the "Thunder" and "Lightning" to a discussion of social media best practices for building, maintaining and sustaining your corporate brand. AdWeek's digital editor and notorious twitterer Brian Morrissey joins the discussion to lend journalistic insight and weight to the discussion, while renowned Wired.com NYC Bureau Chief John Adell moderates the action.

I PROMISE that this will not be boring. The energy levels (even for 11am) will be incredibly high.

Tickets are completely sold out for this event (they went in like, 15 minutes -- social media FTW!), but of course, this is the internet, so you can watch it in the space below -- LIVE. Once it's over, I'll also make sure the archived video is available too. And word on the street is that it will be totally clickable/hotspotted. Courtesy of Klickable.
