Please join us on Tuesday, January 8, in the Heritage Room at BridgePort BrewPub as we welcome our expert SEMpdx panel, who will be hosting a Q&A discussion on What’s New for 2019 in Digital Marketing. Your panel members are:

  • Anna Hutson, founder of Avenue. Anna will cover the future of content and social media marketing, inclusive of content format trends and audience expectations, distribution for all stages of the buyer’s journey, paid promotion, live video/live streaming, machine learning and content personalization, and building a content and social team staffed for the needs of in-house teams and for clients in 2018 and beyond.
  • Kevin Getch, founder of Webfor. The future of digital marketing is one of Kevin’s favorite topics. He’s previously shared his theory on the future of digital back in 2015 where he mentioned it would follow 3 major trends. He called these the 3 P’s: Personalized, Predictive & Proactive. His predictions coming true has only served to make his head bigger. Still not as big as Todd’s though!
  • Scott Hendison, founder of Search Commander, Inc. Scott has been internet marketing and selling online since before the turn of the century, and plans to answer any questions he can. His primary strengths are organic and technical SEO, WordPress and Facebook Ads, and he has experience pushing the envelope with a wide variety of nefarious online activities that can get your domain banned from Google.
  • Ryan Campbell, Associate Director of Demand Gen at Obility, an agency that specializes in B2B marketing. Ryan believes in the power of digital marketing to drive effective and measurable results. Ryan started his career in internet marketing in 2006 and that’s when he discovered SEMpdx events. His career background and experience is diverse. He’s worked both in house and at an agency, helping small local businesses develop their first digital campaign or managing campaigns spending over $100K monthly to exceed company goals.
  • Introducing our Guest PanelistCaleb Donegan, VP of Digital at Vacasa. Caleb is an expert in national-to-local paid and organic search, and has led cutting-edge SEO, SEM and analytics initiatives for brands, agencies, and tech companies throughout his 11+ years in the industry. As VP of Digital at Vacasa Caleb manages Vacasa.com’s e-commerce solution and strategy.
  • Moderated by David Mihm, founder of Tidings. David is first and foremost an advocate for sustainable digital marketing techniques for small businesses.
