I’m headed to NYC early next week to attend SMX Social Media where I’ll be speaking on the Linkbait panel with RKelley and Brent Csutoras. It’s a smaller show but that’s a good thing. It gives attendees a better opportunity to network with the bigger names in the industry which is, in my opinion, the best reason for going. I think there are probably still a few tickets left so if you’re interested in catching up with the all the latest in social media marketing then grab a ticket.

There will also be a charity event on Monday night that is put on by both the Internet Marketers of New York group and BOTW, the web’s best directory. I really like the way these events are setup. Everyone is charged $40 at the door and then it’s open bar all night. The $40 all goes to the charity and BOTW sponsors the food and drinks. Pretty cool!

The great thing about the charity we’re supporting is that it hits close to home within our industry. Both Marty (aimClear) and Danielle Winfield have recently blogged about their experiences with Leukemia and Lymphoma. Marty actually won the fight with Lymphoma, awesome.

In the spirit of charity I’m tagging three of my friends to help keep this meme going. Neil Patel, Rebecca Kelley, and Brent Csutoras.
