8 Reasons to Register for TWTRCON Today

  1. TWTRCON means business.  We’re bringing together businesspeople (and if you’re a developer that includes you), non profits and government agencies to talk about how Twitter is transforming the way they engage with stakeholders and customers, and to discuss strategies for using the real-time web to add value to their organization.  This is the only conference with a pure focus on Twitter’s use in a business context, and the only one designed to let government, business and non-profits will have a chance to learn from each other.  And, TWTRCON DC 09 is the only Twitter conference on the east coast this fall.
  2. Jam-packed with content: in one day, you’ll hear from 39 amazing speakers, from keynotes such as Craig Newmark and Laura Fitton, from business users such as PepsiCo and Novo Nordisk, from government agencies such as FEMA and the Air Force, from industry experts such as Steve Rubel and David Armano, and from business tool vendors such as TweetFunnel and TweetMixx.  That’s a lot of information and knowledge in just one day.
  3. Don’t miss the fun and the networking:  your TWTRCON DC pass includes lots of networking opportunities, including breakfast, breaks, lunch and an open bar after-party.  There will be a book signing, a wine pouring hosted by St. Supery, and lots of opportunities to meet new people.  We are inviting attendees to select tables based on their interests, which means you’ll spend the whole day sitting with people interested in similar topics!
  4. You are part of the content. Our philosophy is that no one’s an expert on Twitter or social media–we’ve all been doing this for just a few months.  This means that your questions, ideas and experiences are as much a part of the learning for everyone as the speakers.  So bring your ideas and questions, because we are going to make sure there’s lots of time for discussion!
  5. Enter the #TWTRCON Open Mike competition.  Got something to say? Want a chance to say it onstage at TWTRCON?  You can enter the competition (details here), or just have fun voting and rooting for your picks to win.
  6. Participate in our DonorsChoose.org Live Case Study and see which tweet strategies raise more revenue. Each TWTRCON DC attendee will receive a $5 DonorsChoose Giving Card (included with your ticket!), which you can use to participate in a live case study.  We’ll all redeem our cards at the same time–your choice if you want to add another $5 or more of your own–and then select one of several approaches to sharing information about the campaign with our networks.  We’ll see updates throughout the day, and, at the end of the day, some metrics showing which strategies were most effective!
  7. Check out our demo area and learn about some of the latest Twitter business tools and applications from sponsors such as Sprint, TweetFunnel, TweetMixx, Attensity, TwAitter, Tweetfeel, PeopleBrowsr, Cloudprofile and Socialware!
  8. If you don’t come, the rest of us will eat your cookie.  You’d better register right now.

See you at TWTRCON!
