The Ottawa Web Marketing Club's inaugural March 4th Executive
Breakfast, "How to Successfully Market Your Business Online in
2010", was huge success!
Held at the stylish Hellenic Meeting and Reception Centre, guests
enjoyed a delicious gourmet breakfast created by Executive Chef
Jason Duquette.
The morning was packed with energetic and accessible presentations
from a stellar round up of leading local web marketing and social
media experts plus a most impressive keynote speech coming from the
man behind the U.S. best-selling book The Digital Handshake, Paul Chaney. Paul dazzled Ottawa Web Marketing
Club members with seven proven strategies for growing your business
using social media, delivered with the enthusiasm of a man
following his life's passion.
Marketing Breakthrough's CEO and founder of the Ottawa Web
Marketing Club Steve
Klein ensured that local online marketing opportunities were
showcased. Providing resources to small and mid-sized businesses to
get them started in social media and web marketing was the goal and
it was delivered. Members walked away with MB's White Paper,
featuring a solid assortment of the local opportunities and learned
valuable tips, tricks, insights and secrets on how to use social
media to their own advantage.
A big THANK YOU and KUDOS go out to all our partners: Rogers
Media, Ottawa Senators, Ottawa Business Journal, Envision Online
Media, Duocom, Miller McConnell, Hellenic Meeting and Reception

your hard work and collective efforts, this event would not have
