LocalU Advanced Workshop - Monday, February 27, 2017
Join Local U for a full day of tactical workshops focused on the how-tos of local search marketing on Monday, February 27, 2016 at Hyatt at Olive 8 in Seattle. At most conferences, questions pertaining to a specific business, website, or agency issue aren't addressed. But at LocalU Advanced workshops, answering those types of questions is exactly what we'll focus on - helping you with your specific questions and problems.
We'll get you up to speed on all the best practices related to local search using a real local business and show you methods and tools used to find weak spots in your competition and marketing sweet spots for you. We'll discuss agency management issues and solutions and brainstorm link opportunities with attendees. There'll be workshops devoted to helping you to better track and report on local search and how to manage your business listings. As always, a representative from Google My Business will be there to answer your questions and assist in resolving any problems you may have. There will also be plenty of time for Q&A.
MozCon Local Conference - Tuesday, February 28, 2017
Join us to deep dive into local marketing and SEO with industry experts and brands at MozCon Local. Informative for national and regional brands, agency marketers, and business owners, you’ll learn next-level tips and tricks for building citations, creating content, getting reviews, and optimizing SEO and local ranking factors as you attend talks, participate in live Q&A, and mix with fellow in-house and agency marketers, and consultants. See you in Seattle!
