If you are the fence about coming or are unsure of what this CU Water Cooler Symposium thing is, watch the video. I think I do a pretty good job of explaining and selling it!
Make sure to take advantage of the $249 earlybird ticket price. It will move to $349 on August 1.
I just returned from speaking, learning and hanging out at the Partnership Symposium in Fishers, Indiana. FORUM Solutions and Trabian pulled together a stellar line-up of credit union thought leaders to present the best two-day credit union conference I have ever attended.
I travelled with my collegue Nala Henkel and our friend and client, Gene Blishen from Mount Lehman Credit Union. We had a blast hanging out and getting to know the Trabian crew.
A special thanks goes to Kristi Lowell and Doug True from FORUM Solutions who made us feel like rockstars from the moment we landed to the moment we flew out on Friday morning.
Remember me? I'm the Canadian juggler that was picked to speak at the Partnership Symposium on October 4. With the event just over five weeks away, I am starting to prepare my presentation—Where Does Traditional Marketing Fit Into a Web 2.0 World?
To illustrate my key points, I will include real-world examples of how credit unions are integrating on- and off-line tactics in their marketing efforts to deliver killer results. Rather than just including examples that we have created for our clients at Currency Marketing, I want to include diverse examples from all over North America. That's where you can help.
And, since I got the gig with a YouTube video, here’s another one to hopefully bring a smile to your face today (and not annoy you too much). Although I only included a few residents of Open Source CU in my video appeal, everyone is invited to take part.
I will be sure to give full credit to the agencies, credit unions and individuals involved. So what do you say? Are you in? E-mail me, post a comment (without giving everything away) or, better yet, post a video response on YouTube!
