Speaking gigs: AAF Mississippi Gulf Coast, January 2016

My first speaking gig of the year will be on the Gulf Coast. I’ve spent a lot of time in the area, especially in the months and years after Hurricane Katrina, serving as a volunteer.

I’ll be at the January meeting of the American Advertising Federation Mississippi Gulf Coast to talk about “The Art of the Brand: What Your Blog Needs and Deserves.”

The official description:

Your blog stands for something. It represents your values and your personality, even if unintentionally. Branding might be more buzz word than tactic, but you must make it meaningful.

Join Y’all Connect conference director Wade Kwon as he explains how he turned a campaign launch with a so-so logo into a juggernaut. And how his online dating profile made him invisible. And how his adventures in branding helped his clients create and maintain standout brands.

The event takes place at 11:45 a.m. Tuesday at Bonefish Grill in Biloxi. Tickets, $20 to $25, are available online.

I’m looking forward to my trip to Mississippi. Hope to see you there!
