UPDATE: This event is now sold out. Thanks, gang! For a head start on tickets to our next event, subscribe to our mailing list.

It seems like yesterday that this event was nothing more than an idea, and two years later, we’re about to host our tenth Social Media Breakfast Chicago.  The event is scheduled for Wednesday, April 6 at Hotel Sax, and will be sponsored by Verizon.

We did things a bit differently this time, giving email subscribers a head start on tickets, and before we could get this blog post up, the event just about sold out. But there are a couple of tickets left, so grab one now: http://smbchicago10.eventbrite.com/.

Hope to see you there.

If you missed out on tickets, I’d encourage you to join our mailing list on the right side of this page.  We’ll likely continue to give subscribers a head start on tickets.

Registration is open and tickets are already going fast for our next Social Media Breakfast Chicago at my home turf, Burson-Marsteller, on Tuesday, February 8.

You can register here: www.smbchicago9.eventbrite.com.

As always, we’ll be covering a range of topics this time, including social media measurement; building a network of advocates on the social web; how to engage with critical bloggers; and the role of social media in the B2B space.

All the money we raise from this event will go directly to Urban Initiatives, a great organization that improves the health and fitness of underserved Chicago communities through soccer programs and other outings.

Hope to see you there!

Registration is now open for our next Social Media Breakfast Chicago on December 14 at Loyola’s downtown campus.  You can register here: www.smbchicago8.eventbrite.com.

We have five killer moderators for you to choose from, covering topics like how to build a community around your blog, overcoming internal barriers to social media in your organization, finding the right mix of social media channels, a look at how search engine optimization impacts social media marketing, and an overview of some significant changes coming to the social media landscape.

All the money we raise from this event will go directly to the Infant Welfare Society of Chicago, a fantastic charity which provides healthcare to Chicago-area women and children who would otherwise lack access to basic medical services.  The organization was affected by a flood earlier this year and could use our support.

We look forward to seeing you on December 14!
