Tampa Grows with Social Fresh
Last June we struck up a conversation with Jason Keath in a hotel lobby outside the American Advertising Federation’s national conference. Aside from being a former colleague through the national network of Ad 2, Jason (@jakrose) is also probably one the smartest and most highly regarded *real people* I know in the social media world. He’s the old guard; the early adopter; the antithesis of today’s all-too-common fly-by-night “social media (insert title of prominence here).” And we were literally days from the official founding of Social Forces.
I was honored just to share a drink and a chat with Jason – so you can imagine how exciting it was to share an idea – Social Fresh Tampa.
Jason and his team have been putting on Social Fresh conferences across the country for the last couple years: big, juicy, all-day events bursting with the flavor of the most accomplished, engaging, knowledgeable sources from the biggest brands and companies in the field of social media. Big names (whether you’ve heard of them or not). High-level discussions. Serious conversations about how social media impacts business.
At the time we spoke, Jason was plotting out his national tour for the year. And as our discussion continued, it was clear that Tampa Bay was definitely somewhere he should consider.
The key? Tampa Bay wants to grow. Our ad agencies don’t want to be “Tampa advertising agencies.” Our entrepreneurs don’t want to own “Tampa franchises.” I imagine even our sanitation engineers aspire to national stardom. We’re a city of professionals nothing less than obsessed with making a national impression. Yet all too often, we don’t get a stop on the tour.
By bringing national talent, big ideas and a huge, hyper-relevant topic to Tampa, Social Fresh is part of what needs to go right with Tampa. It’s a national entity coming and giving our city a shot. It’s a little ink toward getting our city on the map. More than anything, it’s a chance for all of us to grow.
Our team will be there on Monday. Our friends who are serious about being on the forefront of the advertising and marketing industry will be there. And a host of people I’d probably never otherwise get the chance to rub shoulders with will be there, too.
Will you?
