"I literally couldn't wait to get to the office this morning and start my list of new marketing initiatives after the conference yesterday. I have to say, that was the best marketing seminar I have ever attended. First, I realized I didn't understand half as much as I thought I did. And second, I really felt everyone in the room was excited about the topics and that excitement inspired me. Job well done and please include me on any future events."

"The day was full at a comfortable level, with enough time to stop and break down real-world examples for each participant as needed, and you all really made it simple — the bare bones and ideas we could take home and build on. I was already excited for The State Journal's launch into Web 2.0, but the conference helped me get organized and encouraged, so now I have solid steps and information to back up my excited ideas."

"As a recent attendee of the nextgeneration marketing in Charleston, I can honestly say it was awesome! I have been in marketing and public relations for over 10 years and still learned so much in the one day session it was amazing. Skip, Justin, and James make the day fly by and are all wonderful presenters. I am a believer that this new thing we call social media and internet marketing is the next phase in the communications profession. After attending this interactive seminar I now feel like a “marketing rockstar” and can’t wait to shred on some blogs!"

"The Next Generation Marketing conference was great yesterday. This was the second marketing conference we've attended where Justin Seibert and Jeff James were speakers. The other was in Southpointe, PA. Please keep us on your list for other conferences like this in the future. We walked away with pages of notes and ideas to tweak our Web sites and improve our marketing campaigns."

"The Next Generation Marketing Conference was a great investment for our marketing dollars. The Conference team reinforced information we have gathered over the past year regarding the importance of web marketing and then gave practical pointers on "how to" implement the steps. Thanks!"

"I thoroughly enjoyed the May 14 Next Generation Marketing Conference held in Charleston, WV! It was informative, educational, and an eye-opener for me. State government would benefit greatly from participating in a conference designed especially for the work that we do. I did not realize the opportunities for my agency to improve our marketing strategy until this conference. We have a tendency to be 'reactive' versus 'proactive' when it comes to dealing with the issues we face every day. I now know that we need to get the 'feel good stories' out there as well. Before this conference I was not up to speed with the latest Web technologies other than search engines, in fact, I feel a bit intimidated by the new Web 2.0 Tools. I realize now how valuable these new tools are. To Jeff, Justin, and Skip - Awesome job! I also want to thank Bill Rock, Brad Howe, and Elizabeth Pellegrin for their contributions!"

"I attended the Next Generation marketing seminar in Morgantown last week and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The location at the Waterfront Place was excellent. The material was very helpful and I have already used the The 'Discipline of Differentiation' and 'Inspiring customers to become advocates' material in a manager 's meeting. The material presented was good and well done by the speakers. Those who spoke all were interesting, informative and I would highly recommend the seminar. It was and would be a good investment of both your time and money!"
