2. Be Bright!
You will be remembered
You'll be easier to find

3. 1 If you know a shortcut, share it!
2 Look at every conversation as an opportunity to
collaborate, not compete
3 People appreciate steps they can take more than
theories or ideas
See Joe Pulizzi's Orange Watch?!
Thumbs up to that!

Be Friendly!
Todd Wheatland of King Content taught us
all about slideshare and canva. But then he
laughed with us at lunch. He made a point to
be accessible and friendly.

4. "Practice the art of JOMO, rather than FOMO."

5. Ian Cleary of RazorSocial had a brilliant idea
that inspired me. He passed out cards
inviting people to his session that explained
what we'd learn if we showed up. His
session was standing room only.
Be Self-Promotional

6. Be Funny
Don't take yourself too seriously.

Attend the conference with your best

is nothing better than meeting new people
with someone you can be more yourself
around.
