Search Engine Guide and Small Business Brief, two reputable sites and authorties in online marketing for small businesses, have organized a different kind of small business marketing conference featuring the best in the industry.

The two-day conference will run from April 21-22, 2008 at Northwest Forest Conference Center, Cypres, Texas (about 30 minutes from downtown Houston).
- DAY 1 : Day one will be a series of lectures from the guest speakers. Instead of hearing a panel of speakers share four different viewpoints, (leaving you to figure out which one is right), the stage will be given to one expert who knows how to explain the nuts and bolts of their topic to the small business audience. You’ll get the information that’s vital to improving your online marketing techniques and you’ll get it without the techno-talk and industry jargon so common to larger online marketing conferences.
- DAY 2 : On day two, the conference will take things a step further, breaking the show down into intensive workshops that actually walk you through the process of beginning to market your site. Whether it’s keyword reseach, viral marketing, paid search advertising or a variety of other topics, the expert marketers will walk you through the actual steps of launching your online marketing campaign and will send you home with the knowledge you need to finish the job.
Registration is still on-going but you need to hurry up as the number of participant is limited. Registration fee is at $975, a lot cheaper compared to when you hire most skilled online marketing agencies for a single day’s worth of personal consulting.
Here are the speakers invited to share their expertise and talk about their experiences in online marketing.
