January 13

A Note to Readers
from Ann Handley
Chief Content Officer

Watch This Space for Changes

First: Are you registered yet to hear about Facebook, Twitter (with CoTweet's Jesse Engle and Frank Eliason of Citigroup), and Blogging (with Lisa Petrilli and Mack Collier)? This is one Post-Holiday Palooza to look forward to.

Second: If January 6th weren't my daughter's birthday, I would absolutely be in Vegas on that day, specifically at the Mashable Awards.

This fourth annual event—sponsored by lots of great companies, including MarketingProfs—celebrates major innovations and achievements in the digital and social media space by businesses, people, and projects in 25 categories, ranging from "Best New Gadget" to "Best Music Discovery Service" to "Must-Follow Brand" to "Coolest Eyewear."

(So I'm kidding about that last one... but Seth Godin would totally win.)

This year, Mashable has partnered with Cirque du Soleil to bring its awards to the Zumanity stage during the 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) Convention. And if you want to go (and you swear it's not also your kid's birthday), MarketingProfs has discount tickets right here.

You'll get 40% off what the other poor slobs will pay—or just $24 to $75, with the MarketingProfs discount, depending on your desired capacity (or expense report allowance) for getting your party on.

See? Aren't you glad you're a MarketingProfs subscriber? (As if you needed another reason!)

If you go, please post photos in the MarketingProfs Facebook group. I'd love to see you there, even if I'm not. (If you know what I mean.)

BTW, can you believe this is the second-to-last newsletter of the year? I can't. We have big changes afoot for MarketingProfs Today in 2011, so watch this space next week for details.
