A Note to Readers
from Ann Handley
Chief Content Officer

See You in Scottsdale!

As you read this, I'm hopefully on my way to Scottsdale for this week’s MarketingProfs Digital Marketing Mixer. If you'll be there, too, I look forward to meeting you.

If not, you can follow the back-channel conversation and get event updates from the event on Twitter simply by logging into Twitter and searching at search.twitter.com on our "tag" for the event, which is #mpdm. (If you don't have a Twitter account, setting one up is both easy and free at www.twitter.com.)

Also this week, Premium Director Carol Burns asks me to pass along the details of a new Premium membership Tell A Friend program she's rolling out today.

Essentially, members can refer their colleagues, friends or family to become either a Premium or P+ member and they both will receive discounts (or extensions) to their memberships. It's an especially sweet deal for Basic members, who will receive a 10% discount for each person they refer who becomes a paying member. In turn, the referee will receive a 20% discount to join.

Are you still following? No worries, get all these details (and more!) here.

See you in Scottsdale, or on Twitter. Or at the very least, see you next week!
