One of the recurring themes at this year’s CMA conference is the potential of social marketing to transform your business. LinkedIn, Facebook, and other social marketing sites are drawing the attention of conference attendees.
But what the heck is social marketing? Is it real or just a fad? And can it benefit me even if I’m not a big wig with a big budget?
Well, we have an exclusive audio interview with Conference exhibitor Jason Alba, the author of “I’m on Facebook . . . Now What?” Jason helps make plain sense of what can be confusing for a newbie and shows us how we can leverage the powerful potential of social marketing.

The 2008 CMA Conference kicked off with a gala reception and town meeting at the Radisson Plaza Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. And hey, its wasn’t even cold, not even for this California boy! (Hi around 60).
However the locals say that will change in the days ahead, and they won’t let us leave without a little chill.
CMA Director Liz Sumner chaired the town meeting, which included some terrific, provocative results on the CMA’s recent survey of its members. 
There was alot of terrific discussion, including the unveiling of the location and date of next year’s conference.
And I would have brought you a video interview with Liz herself, except my jet lag began kicking in (up since 4 this morning). Hopefully, we will get that in tomorrow.
But the conference space is beautiful, and it looks like we are in for an amazing 2 1/2 days of inspiration and terrific information.

The Career Management Alliance Conference is just two weeks away, and I’m concentrating on the most important details- good food and partying on Friday night!
Members tell us that the Special Event is always a highlight of the conference. The best ones involve dinner, a convivial atmosphere, and an opportunity to relax with new and old friends. I think we’ve found the perfect choice-the award-winning Azia Restaurant and Caterpillar Lounge. Here’s how they describe it–
“Reimagine fusion! Asian spice meets Minnesota Nice! As one critic states, ‘Sacred Asian art meets James Bond chic.’ Let Chef and Owner, Thom Pham, take you on a culinary adventure ranging from traditional stir frys, to a North Woods Walleye in Jalapeno-Basil sauce, to a perfectly braised tenderloin topped with an exotic Asian mushroom demi-glace. When you visit, chances are good that Thom himself is on site, and hosting every guest as though he’s invited them for a private dinner party. In fact, fundamentally he has. ”
Check out their website at www.aziarestaurant.com.
We’ll have a group dinner party, with a mouthwatering menu selected for us and served family style. For those who want to stay on afterwards there’s music in the lounge. The price is $45.00 for dinner, transportation to and from the restaurant, tax and gratuity. (Beer, wine, and cocktails not included).
Everyone’s invited! Make your reservations now at: https://monkey.he.net/%7Ecareerma/reg-conf.php. Email liz@careermanagementalliance.com or call 603-924-0900 x640 if you have questions.
