Why are we involved with digital marketing? Cutting edge? Bleeding edge? It's where things are going? Advertising is advertising where ever it takes place? In seeing a tag line and list of speakers at IDEA 2009, a top Interactive Marketing conference I starting trying to imagine what ONE SHOW I would attend, which show would it be? What path would I choose as a statement about my passion and my creative vs. business acumen.

On the advertising and marketing side I have the IDEA conference. The presenters runs like a list of visionaries and people to watch in hip marketing, pr and advertising [yes there is a difference].

On the uber-visionary side I have TED. Yes it's expensive but just going sets a bar pretty high for your ambitions.

Then there's WOMMA and the InBound Marketing summit. More for the practitioners of social media and the monetary connections to be made there. People we are all addicted to like Chris Brogan, David Armano, Seth Godin.

And lastly is Austin's own SXSWi (South-by-Southwest Interactive). I still have a panel in the running for presenting in 2010, so wish me luck. [I know this is a limited and incomplete list, but this is supposed to be a short engaging post.]

And this year, my answer is... IDEA. Roy Spence from GSDM, Barry Diller, Paul Bennett from IDEO, Alex Bogusky from Crispin Porter + Bogusky. And the list goes on. The whole inspiration for this post was their tag line that touched a nerve or a vein [if we are characterizing passion rather than irritation].

IDEA 2009: Reinvention. The Velocity of Ideas. What are your thoughts, choices, additions? What ONE CONFERENCE would define your passion and core strengths best?

Stacey Soleil wears many hats (both literally & figuratively speaking). She's a performer, a spokesperson, a social media junkie and a self proclaimed "TrekkieTechGirl" (due to her addiction to NextGen reruns). Yet behind the whimsical demeanor you will find a solid entrepreneurial backbone. For the past several years, Stacey has been the proud owner of Soleil Marketing & Promotions whereby she strategizes and implements all of the sponsorship deals, digital placements, online promotions & grass roots marketing campaigns for her broad range of clientele. Stacey garners more than 15 years of sales & marketing experience within the general entertainment, music, and non-profit organization forefront. In early 2005, Stacey shifted her focus to the web upon recognizing the necessity for new media marketing campaigns that would reach the latest generation of web and mobile savvy users. Stacey currently serves as the Director of Social Media Strategy with Karma Media Labs and has served as the Director of New Media Marketing & Promotions for both Toucan Cove Entertainment & Arthropoda Records. She also participated in a tour wrap sponsorship program for artists such as Killswitch Engage, Mudvayne and Static-X. Furthermore, Stacey launched grassroots marketing endeavors for various websites such as iLike.com, garageband.com, & handheldcomedy.com. Stacey’s creative approach to marketing & branding has created partnerships between musicians and major athletic figures as well as co-promotions with big brands such as DirtBag Clothing for tour sponsorship. During her stay as Director of New Media Marketing, Stacey helped Toucan Cove Records secure top billing as the #1 independent label during 2008. Ms. Soleil's most recent endeavors include NextWeb64, Girls In Tech OC, as well as community outreach for The Angela Shelton Foundation. Soleil Marketing & Promotions is conveniently based just outside of Los Angeles, allowing Stacey to meet directly with a majority of web, mobile & entertainment headquarters throughout southern California.

Hello Ladies in Tech,


I don't know about you, but every year, I find it more and more frustrating that not enough women are represented on panels at SXSWi (especially given our sizable presence in the field).

Let's change that!

VOTE for these panels and RT/RP:

The first time I ever saw The Dodos was a few years back at Todd P's party at SXSW.
It was one of those times where you just stumble in not expecting anything in particular and then walk out blown away.

 This is my favorite track so far off their new "Time To Die" album:

The Strums by The Dodos

MailChimp says...

Face it. We’re all in it together. To grow, we must work together to build the overall market for web applications. Last SXSW, like-minded software companies banded together into the Small Business Web (http://www.thesmallbusinessweb.com). We’ll talk candidly about what happened, what we’ve learnt, and why you must join the movement. panelpicker.sxsw.com

Will feature MailChimp, Freshbooks, Batch Blue, Shoeboxed and Outright. Have a second to give us the thumb's up?

Lori says...

I first saw Sunni's work at SXSWi in March 2009 as she graphically
recorded Tony Hsieh's (Zappos.com) keynote address. Tony's speech was
insightful and refreshing, but I spent a good bunch of time mesmerized
by Sunni's real-time visual interpretation of what he was talking
about. "Now there's a visual thinker...wow," I thought.
 
Okay, enough gushing...
 
Burt Lum (@bytemarks) helped find a way to bring Sunni to Hawaii...for
a project of course. And if she meets a few Hawaii tweeps along the
way, all the better.
