At Blogging Concentrated you don’t have to choose one session over another, you attend them all

How to be Awesome:
Knowing where you fit in the eyes of your audience will lead to more money, better opportunities, increased traffic, higher reach, and sponsor love.
Marketing Calendar: Editorial calendars are just a tiny part of a complete marketing plan. Looking for traffic independent of Google and Facebook? This is it. Learn why a marketing plan is integral to solid, long term, business growth. And find out how to stay in front of your audience all the time.
YouTube: This is a tremendous traffic source so lets start looking at YouTube from a totally different perspective. Then, with that perspective shift, you’ll learn easy strategies to implement to make your YouTube presence the power it deserves. The 80/20 Rule: Let’s learn how to see what’s working, so you can focus on what’s working. Why spend your time on the 80% of your business that’s only bringing in 20% of your revenue? Through solid example you’ll see how to structure not only your time, but also your sites, your marketing, and your future plans to maximize this powerful principle.
Adsense: This is a micro-topic. But, remember, a well set-up dashboard can make you money. We’ll share with you strategies on setting up your dashboard. Then, in the process,  the lessons you’ll learn regarding Adsense will thus provide tools to improve every other monetization source you have. SEO: Keywords / Rich Snippets / Open Graph / Social: They can no longer be separated. Let’s put together a system on your site to always be optimizing. This is a foundation tool for an effective site. Sites need to be built properly so that they can support the awesome content that you produce.
Ebook: We’re going to show you how to turn your knowledge into a product like an ebook that has viral sharing elements, that is priced for business growth, and designed to build your business. You’ll learn what makes a great ebook, why your readers already give you clues into what to put together, and you’ll
learn simple strategies to make your ebook rock.
We use examples you’ll never forget from Howard Stern. . . Mario Batali. . . Paris Lenon. . . Walgreens. . . . Larry David. . . Tom Jackson. . . Philip DeFranco. . . Perry Marshall. . .ABC’s The Bachelor . . . Subway. . .ChadMattandRob. . .YoungHouseLove.com. . .
Branding &Messaging: Do you know your message? We’re not simply talking about colors and logos. . . we’ll be talking about creating solid messaging that builds your business. It’s critical that you know the power in messaging and that you consistently build your brand’s message. Finally. . .What order do I do things?. . . this is always the last question of the day. We’ve got so much to think about, and then the question tends to be, “how do I get it done?” You will leave Blogging Concentrated with a solid action plan. You’ll have goals, a renewed sense of vision, and a larger resource of new tools that will propel you as the CEO of your company forward.

WHERE ARE WE GOING TO MEET?

This event we’re co-existing with The Blended Conference. The event will be held at the Embassay Suites Phoenix Scottsdale. . . what a beautiful place.
