Next Week: Two Incredible Conferences In One
April 28th, 2010 | Published in Google Analytics
Hey marketers and data heads: heads up! Next week is a good week to tell your boss you’re taking “enrichment time off.” We totally support using this excuse to take afternoons off and go to baseball games, or using it to let your boss know you won’t be at work on a Friday, when you're actually planning to hit the slopes early for a long ski weekend. “Enrichment time”. But regarding next week, we’re actually talking about legitimate, professional, guilt free, educational enrichment time at two web analytics conferences happening at the same place in San Jose -- next week!
You’ve heard of eMetrics, a premiere event for marketing and website analytics. We’ve launched a bunch of stuff at this conference over the years because the atmosphere fosters innovation. Well attended and sponsored by the Web Analytics Association, it’s also a chance for the web analytics industry to get together and share best practices and help each other.
In conjunction this year, there will be an additional conference in the same space, targeted specifically at conversions, called Conversion Conference. This conference is aimed specifically at helping you make minor or major adjustments to your website or campaigns specifically to increase your online conversions. It will share social events with eMetrics, and registering for both will help you take full advantage of the week. And when you register at the Conversion Conference site you can get a late-bird discount of $250 off. Enter the code CCW646.
