On Wednesday September 16th, I’ll be joined by Jason Pratt and Amanda Warford from Jacksonville.com as I moderate the panel: Building an audience with digital and social media in the age of new journalism.

Content, Conversion, Community: The Keys to Online Marketing is a single day conference hosted by the Jacksonville chapter of the American Marketing Association.

$20.00 for JAMA Members and $50.00 for a non-member.

Big props to Tom Brenneman from 352 Media for putting this together and inviting me participate in this awesome panel.

We’ll talk about our real-life experiences building online communities with Urban Jacksonville and Jacksonville.com. Jason and Amanda have helped Jacksonville.com build a loyal following through video, social media tools and good ‘ol fashioned customer service. Come hear how they did it.
