There were several topics we wanted to include but didn’t make it in because either;Â there we no presentations of it online, we weren’t thrilled with the content available, or Iweran out of time in trying to keep this virtual conference to one day.
Some of the important topics we wanted to cover:
1. the importance of good copywriting online
2. comparing search, display, ppc, cpm, cpa, etc.
3. creating efficiencies in your marketing
4. marketing in a recession
5. Integrated Brands & Interaction: connecting your online to your offline channel
6. preparing your organization for social media
7. why organization must adopt a continuous improvement process for their marketing efforts
What topics would you like to have seen?
P.S. We made the decision to leave any of our presentations/interviews out of the agenda to eliminate any bias, but if you want to watch some of our presentations, here you go:
1. How to get your organization to start testing
2. How to use personas to increase sales
3. Using Persuasion Architecture to improve your online results

Bryan,
This was such a brilliant idea that I stole the concept (with all the love and attribution back to you ;).
I called mine: Pixelated - Your New Business Conference Starts Now Online. With the idea being to get some unique perspectives on the changing world from a business, marketing and technology perspective.
And, you know me, I had to throw some motivation in there as well
Thanks (as always) for the amazing content and inspiration!
