<p>What are you doing on April 19?</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re smart, you&#8217;ll be going to Social Fresh St. Louis. Unlike some other social media conferences that focus more on entry-level information, the Social Fresh series of events is centered around case studies and success stories.</p>
<p>From the <strong><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Social Fresh St. Louis: Social Media Conference" href="http://socialfresh.com/stlouis/">St. Louis Social Fresh Page</a></strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Social Fresh St. Louis is our fourth event of 2010. We have a host of big name national speakers combined with some strong local experts. It will be a full day of rich, case study focused content.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>The sessions and speakers will strongly reflect all Social Fresh flagship events with big brands and real social media success stories, all specifically for marketing professionals. More case studies, less concept.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>St. Louis will mark the second Social Fresh event I&#8217;ve had the honor of attending as a speaker.</p>
<p>If you want tickets, you better hurry up &#8211; <strong>Early Bird registration prices are good through March 2, 2010!</strong></p>
