Gaining Insight From Social Media Data

A Chance To See Richard Branson, Colin Powell, Tony Robbins, And Me

by Tom Webster on September 14, 2012

So, it’s been an eventful week or so–apologies for not posting recently, but I’ve had a birthday and gotten married in the same week, which resulted in a net gain of +4 to my Klout score. So, there’s a handy tip if you are also looking to gain influence. In any case, it’s time to get back on the road to talk insights, influence, data and The Social Habit.

Next week, I’ll be speaking at the same event as Branson, Powell, Robbins, GE’s Jeff Immelt and even the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And, I am sure, they are busily writing on their blogs that they’ll be appearing with me. Of course, we won’t all be speaking at once (my rider prohibits sharing the stage) but you can see us all at the biggest honkin’ event I’ve ever attended, Dreamforce, in San Francisco next week.

Unlike those rookies Powell and Branson, who have merely one appearance, I’ll be speaking at three different times–if you are going (and, statistically speaking, roughly 1% of the US population will be there) I hope to see you at one of the following:

Tuesday, 2PM: Social Media Influence-Can It Be Measured? What Do You Do Next?

Wednesday, 12PM: Using Social to Gather Intelligence Behind Enemy Lines

Thursday, 9AM: How To Derive Insight From Your Social Media Data

None of these sessions are linkable at the Dreamforce site, sadly, but if you are going to be attending, and have any of those time slots free, I’d love to meet you!

Rumors that the Red Hot Chili Peppers will be performing at one of my talks are unconfirmed, and, in fact, ludicrous.

    Thanks, Raul! It’s a GIANT conference, that’s for sure.

    This year I have not gone to many conference. Only one was SXSW! Tough year Financially. If I had the $$ looks like I would like to go to.

    See you there!

    There you’ll be with all the superstars and I’ll be with Buffy, Winky, and StuntBoy, and many like them at the Radio Show. I’m so happy for you, not just for the big speaking gig but for all the great things happening in your life, but quite jealous that you’ll be with much bigger names than me next week.

    You’ll be with my boss, Mark–that ain’t nothin’!

    See you there. Two out of three are already on my agenda.
