<p>I was excited by the large turn-out at the Q&amp;A session I hosted in Santa Clara at SMX West—the popular conference for online and search engine marketing experts.</p>
<p>Leading up to the SMX conference what weighed on my mind was the obvious—our collective anxiety about the recession and the ubiquitous pressure to do more with less. Focusing the Q&amp;A on strategies and spending choices across PPC, SEO and Social Media Marketing must have struck a chord because we covered more questions in greater depth than I anticipated.</p>
<p>The savvy search marketers at SMX zeroed in on questions like “PPC advertising–Technology or Human Driven?” and “Social Media Marketing for brand reputation monitoring and brand healing?&#8221;. Folks wanted to hear about Ford&#8217;s Scott Monty smartly using social media to nip a PR nightmare in the bud. I went on to explain how a major travel firm used the social media group at Position2 to turn around negative sentiment from a promotion gone wrong.</p>
<p>In these tough times, every search/online marketing manager and CMO is ready to listen to innovative approaches. I’m glad the Q&amp;A lifted attention from each company&#8217;s specific business challenges and the sometimes arcane technical aspects of a conference for experts.
