I'm a big fan of tradeshows

I’m looking forward to great event this week. On Wednesday night Milestone Marketing Associates will exhibit at East Meets West, an annual expo that brings together the Lakewood Ranch Business Alliance, the Gulf Coast Latin Chamber of Commerce, and the Longboat Key, Lido Key, St. Armands Key Chamber of Commerce.

Unlike the Techfast Breakfast series which had a half-a-dozen sponsors and 50+ attendees at each event, East Meets West will have 45 exhibitors and as many as 600 attendees. That means this event represents another first for Milestone, our first tradeshow.

Those of you who know me from the old Quest days know that I’m a big fan of tradeshows. As is Victoria Gillum, our media specialist, who will also staff our booth. Together we shall represent Milestone well. Thanks again, Vicki!

Speaking of events, last week’s YPG meeting was better than I expected, I thoroughly enjoyed Curtis Zimmerman’s presentation at AAF, and all three social media speakers at the T.I.P.S. session did a great job.

SAVE THE DATE – Dr. Larry Thompson, President of Ringling College of Art and Design, is speaking at the next STF Techbyte Luncheon on Tuesday, September 21^st.

For those of you who were wondering, my wife eventually made it home last Sunday after a particularly crappy Delta travel experience. Now that school started it finally feels like the Anderson family is getting back to normal.

Until next week,

Matthew Anderson, President
Milestone Marketing Associates, Inc.
