Re-visiting The First Digital Marketing Therapy Session

Ok, so this post is late but now that things are moving quickly at CIMA, why not discuss it?!

On February 24, 2013, Brian and Tom hosted a Digital Marketing Therapy (DMT) session at PodCamp Toronto. Around 30 people attended the event.

As DMT sessions go, this was a success. We went around the room, one by one asking people if they had questions about online marketing, business issues, and so on. While a few people shied away from voicing any issues, others gladly shared their circumstances and asked for advice for everyone else.

We discussed different websites, freelance work, being a writer and journalist in the era of bloggers, working from home and in remote areas, among other topics.

Each DMT will have a completely different list of topics as it depends on the questions asked and those in attendance who are able to answer them.

The Session’s Description

The Cana­dian Inter­net Mar­ket­ing Asso­ci­a­tion (CIMA) presents Dig­i­tal Mar­ket­ing Ther­apy. Actu­ally, it’s not a pre­sen­ta­tion at all. It’s an open air ques­tion and answer period hosted by Brian and Tom. (But just because Brian is the pres­i­dent of CIMA, don’t assume he has the answer to every sin­gle ques­tion.) We want YOU to share your expe­ri­ence with every one else.

This ses­sion is ideal for busi­ness peo­ple and Inter­net mar­ket­ing pro­fes­sion­als. Dur­ing the Dig­i­tal Mar­ket­ing Ther­apy ses­sion, every­one comes together to help and sup­port one another. If you’ve had prob­lems or issues in your busi­ness, chances are, oth­ers in the ses­sion have too. Bounce ideas off oth­ers who have gone through it already and per­haps find solutions.

Pos­si­ble Top­ics That You Can Bring Up

• Issues with run­ning a social media mar­ket­ing cam­paign
• Client pay­ment woes
• Tried paid search, didn’t work out. Now what?
• Worked with a ven­dor who left you feel­ing used

In true uncon­fer­ence style, this ses­sion is about the atten­dees, for the attendees.

Come early to be sure there’s time to cover your spe­cific issue.

Share your challenges, be heard, and learn what you can do differently next time.
