The Mic Is On: Mark Davidson on The Art of Self Promotion

March 10, 2009 by Liz


It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Guest host Mark Davidson, Social Media Promoter

Man about Twitter, Internet strategist, and social media manager, Mark Davidson, will be here to talk about nuances self-promotion and Twitter.

  • Is self-promotion an art or a science?
  • What’s good and bad self-promotion?
  • Is it ever good to be shameless?
  • How do you get other folks to promote for you?
  • What’s the secret to promoting on Twitter?
  • And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

    Oh, and bring example links about your ideas.
