Chicago OMS Online Marketing Summit a great time!
The Chicago Online Marketing Summit, or Chicago OMS for short, was a great source of information and chance to see what everyone else was doing. The Chicago OMS is different from most in that the seminars are the main focus and not the commercial aspect . The Chicago OMS opened with a keynote motivational talk from Aaron Kahlow, whom if you’ve never heard Aaron Kahlow speak, you’re missing an outstanding speaker. Aaron is very inspirational and dedicated to education. Not wanting to commercialize the messages of the Chicago OMS, Aaron encouraged everyone to, “boo”, any speaker that starts to turn their seminar into a commercial by pushing their product. I believe the speakers got the message as they all stayed on track and shared some extremely valuable lessons.
Kevin Lee, SEO guru and founder of Didit, managed to pack 14 hours of information into his one hour seminar. I have writers cramp from taking so many notes of the great information that Kevin had to share. Chris Baggott, Co-Founder and CEO of Compendium Blogware also passed on some great info and techniques for successful business blogging which was geared for ranking with the search engines. There were a number of other speakers and events at the Chicago OMS as well which were all packed with great information. Definitely a worthwhile seminar! With lunch included that had the best darned cookies I’ve ever had, and free drinks after at a happy hour sponsored by the Chicago OMS, The Chicago Online Marketing Summit was a great value packed with information and networking opportunities!
In addition, the Chicago OMS was a good reason to spend some quality time with our east coast friends Adam and Beth from Baldy Dog and Pixel Head Online, who came in for the Chicago Online Marketing Summit. Not missing an opportunity to review some of Chicago’s finest culinary fare, Adam had a chance to review some Chicago Pizzas as well as the food at a Chicago Firehouse and many other great venues… including my cooking!
All in all, the Chicago OMS was a great time and a great chance to learn from some top level speakers.

Locale an warning is not the sheer means of influencing another, it is the solitary means.
Recently, I didn’t give so much thought to writing comments on blog entries and have left comments even less. Checking out your insightful page, will probably encourage me to do so more regularly.
