As a way to empower small business owners, Google has partnered with Local Business Rockstar to offer an exciting free online marketing event in the Phoenix, AZ market. The live event will be taking place at the Homewood Suites on March 5, 2013 from 11 A.M. to 1 P.M. The seminar will provide free catered food as well as giveaways for those attending the event.
Local businesses in the Phoenix Valley are encouraged to attend the event and walk away with new business ideas to market their company and establish an improved online marketing presence. Seats are limited, so small businesses eager to take advantage of free networking opportunities and online marketing lessons provided by Google and Local Business Rockstar will need to reserve their spots immediately.
Among the various speakers at the seminar, Google’s Vice-President for America’s Marketing, Lisa Gevelber, will be one of the keynote speakers Tuesday afternoon. Streaming live from Google headquarters in Mountain View, CA, she will be discussing how businesses can grow and succeed in the modern age of digital marketing. Staying relevant should be a top priority when it comes to growing a business and there are few companies that are as successful in online marketing as Google. Several other Google executives will also be speaking at the seminar on Tuesday and Local Business Rockstar is going to reveal some up the upcoming developments that Google will be rolling out later this year.
When asked why Google contacted Local Business Rockstar, a small business marketing firm, founder and CEO, E-Rock Christopher, has this to say, “As a Google Engage agency and a Certified Google Partner, we have an opportunity to connect with Google regularly. However, to be able to partner with Google for a livestream event like this is not common. To have the honor of educating local businesses and entrepreneurs about their online marketing efforts in conjunction with Google is really cool. I can guarantee this… those entrepreneurs smart enough to attend will have a definite advantage of their competition
after this event!”
