Social Media Club of Des Moines (SMCDSM) Kick-Off Event

I'd like to invite all of you to the Social Media Club of Des Moines (SMCDSM) Kick-Off Event. Though in existence for the past two years, we've been quiet for the past few months as we regroup and work on aligning our local Chapter with the National Organization so we can create a sustainable and viable Club for many years to come.

Won't you join us for a social event on Wednesday, September 12th at Exile Brewing Company (1514 Walnut Street, DSM) from 5-7pm? Claim your ticket (the event is free, but we'd like to keep a headcount) via Tik.ly and then like the SMCDSM Facebook Fan Page and share our event with your friends.

Hope to see you there!


East Des Moines/South Des Moines Chamber Luncheon

A big “THANK YOU” to the East Des Moines/South Des Moines Chambers for inviting me to speak to their members at a luncheon held at Blank Park Zoo this past month. I LOVE talking about LinkedIn and about how users can get the most out of the often overlooked “suit and tie” of social networks.

Are you looking for a speaker for your networking group? Shoot me an email!

Testimonial


I have worked with Suzanne on several projects and have been more than impressed with her. Suzanne is committed to understanding my business needs, she is extremely empathetic to our needs and she is wonderful at creating solutions that work within the scope of those requirements and resources. She is a consummate professional and she always provides value to the working relationship. Aside from being a great business person, she is also wonderful to work with and an absolute joy to be around. Suzanne can help you on so many levels and her expertise would be a feather in the cap of any business...big or small. I would gladly hire her again and would highly recommend her.
