SPEAKER SERVICE: Retail Brand Representative
I am looking for a retail brand representative to speak on a panel at the Internet Retailer Conference and Exhibition. The session will outline methods for winning customers back and increasing their lifetime value. It will include how to reach dormant customers through demographic and behavioral targeting and how user-specific content and message timing can prompt customers to open and buy. The speaker must be a retail brand representative and have experiences, successes and/or lessons learned to share. You will receive a full conference pass if accepted. The conference is June 15-18 in Boston. Contact…
SPEAKER SERVICE: Job Losses in Journalism
We are looking for speakers to address the topic of journalism layoffs. We are looking for: 1) a job placement expert to discuss career opportunities for laid-off journalists, both in and out of journalism; 2) a labor attorney to discuss employees’ rights during a layoff; 3) a CPA to discuss financial planning for laid-off journalists and those who fear losing their jobs. Speakers must be from the NYC area. The panel will be held in Manhattan on a weeknight this month. The program date will be determined by speakers’ availability. Contact…
SPEAKER SERVICE: Speaker for Camp Conference
We are looking for an expert to participate on a speaking panel for a conference of camp directors and staff. The speaking opportunity would be pro bono but the exposure to camp industry leaders would be great (over 100-200 camp directors and staff are expected). The speaker should be able to address how lessons learned from their industry apply to camps and/or teen programs. We are looking for a speaker from an industry that has similarities to the camp industry but is also quite different. For example, the speaker might be (but is not limited to): a military expert speaking on recruitment techniques, a toy-industry or youth expert who can speak about kids trends they predict for the future, a retirement home manager who creates facilities to allow their residents to feel at home, or a juvenile detention expert who creates constant programming for large youth groups. We are open to other creative responses that fit the criteria above. Please send your expert’s bio and some information about how you think the expert could apply their expertise to the camp industry. Contact…
