MKELive To Offer New Perspectives On Social Media for January LinkedIn-Milwaukee Event

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

(MILWAUKEE, WI) 2009 is history. It’s time to launch into 2010.

On Monday, January 11th, LinkedIn-Milwaukee will bring in 2010 with new insight on how businesses can reap the benefits of social media, presented by the business people that use this valuable tool.

The January LinkedIn-Milwaukee event will feature a panel discussion made up of local business people that are using social media to promote their products and services. These professionals will provide real-time examples and be able to explain how they use social media in a very practical way.

“We wanted to give attendees a chance to hear everyday people that are using social media to build their businesses,” said Katie Felten, president MKE Live. “It’s likely to be a very uplifting event for those that want to make the jump to social media but may feel a little intimidated by this form of marketing.”

The January LinkedIn-Milwaukee event will also provide attendees with the opportunity to update their professional “head and shoulders” photos. Members of the 2010 MKELive Ambassador team will also attend the event to answer questions about upcoming events, social networking, and other networking opportunities in 2010.

The January MKELive LinkedIn-Milwaukee event will be held on Monday, January 11th from 5:30-8:30 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Wauwatosa (located at 10499 Innovation Drive, Wauwatosa, WI 53226). Networkers are encouraged to pre-register at www.mkelive.com/calendar

MKELive Provides Favre-Free Networking!

No one will mention “that” guy when
MKELive introduces its new website

(MILWAUKEE, WI) Enough already.

On September 14th, MKELive will introduce its new website during the fall’s first LinkedIn-Milwaukee event at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Wauwatosa.

The event will also be considered a “Favre-free zone,” in reference to minimizing or eliminating redundant conversation about the waffling, media-manipulating, attention-hogging, former Green Bay Packers quaterback.

“We’re really looking forward to introducing the new mkelive.com and explaining how it is such an improved networking and training tool,” said Katie Felten, managing partner and president of MKE Live. “The ‘Favre-free Zone’ is just for fun. Although, people might have to find another subject to begin their networking conversations – like Aaron Rodgers.”

Felten is featured in LinkedWorking: Generating Success On the World’s Largest Professional Networking Website. She is recognized throughout the state as a leading trainer in LinkedIn. She is frequently asked to speak to professional organizations about LinkedIn and social networking media, and has been quoted in media throughout the state. Since April, more than 2,000 people have attended MKELive’s LinkedIn training and networking events.

While admission to all LinkedIn-Milwaukee events is normally $10, attendees wearing Packers-gear (e.g., hats, shirts, accessories, socks, etc.) to this September’s event will be admitted for free.

LinkedIn-Milwaukee will be held on Monday, September 14th from 5:30-8:30 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Wauwatosa (located at 10499 Innovation Drive, Wauwatosa, WI 53226). Networkers are encouraged to pre-register at www.mkelive.com/calendar .
