American Marketing Association—Austin Chapter and InnoTech present Going Viral...how best-in-class companies make word-of-mouth marketing work
Thursday October 16, 2008 from 11:30am - 1:00pm
Austin Convention Center
500 East Cesar Chavez Street
Austin, Texas Get Directions
Luncheon Event Description:
Almost every marketing professional has been told to “go viral” or become an expert in “Web 2.0”.
Viral marketing and Web 2.0 are the latest in a vast array of shinny marketing buzzwords. But having someone make something “go viral” is about as easy as telling them to go buy the winning lottery ticket. Join us as Scott Ballantyne, VP Consumer Direct at Hewlett Packard, discusses specific case studies on how HP used social media, not social technology, to increase sales and create a buzz around their products.

Date: Thursday, October 16, 2008
Time: 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Location: Austin Convention Center
Address: 500 E. Cesar Chavez, Austin, TX

AMA Event Sponsors:
