Announcing CenPhoCamp

Dis­claimer: Cen­Pho­Camp is not affil­i­ated with Cronkite School or Ari­zona State Uni­ver­sity. We are grate­ful to have the use of their world-class facil­i­ties for our event.

You’ve heard of social media. You’ve prob­a­bly heard of Pod­Cam­pAZ. You prob­a­bly don’t need much more help.

But PLENTY of small, local busi­nesses do need help. They need assis­tance con­nect­ing their cus­tomers, they need a kick start on inter­net mar­ket­ing and they need to be reminded that the inter­net isn’t a place, it’s a chan­nel they can use to solve cus­tomer problems.

This is where Cen­Pho­Camp comes in. Designed to be a 101-type overview of sell­ing, com­mu­ni­ca­tion and mar­ket­ing tech­niques, it will be a mix of pan­els and pre­sen­ters all look­ing to show busi­nesses with­out tons of resources how to bet­ter mar­ket them­selves using low– or no-cost techniques.

It’s a chance for those in the know to bring those that don’t into the fold. It’s an oppor­tu­nity for those who already know what they’re doing to learn from oth­ers. It’s here so the many pas­sion­ate, local groups don’t over­lap events, make the same mis­takes or waste time on meth­ods that don’t work.

Cen­Pho­Camp will be held Jan­u­ary 23 from 2 to 8pm at the Cronkite build­ing on the down­town Phoenix cam­pus. We’re look­ing for speak­ers, vol­un­teers, speak­ers, pan­elists and spon­sors to help out. Spon­sor­ships will be avail­able per room or per speaker, or can help sub­si­dize the cost of the after party.¹

Want to help out? Leave a com­ment. Fol­low us on Twit­ter. Tell oth­ers that you know.
