SWOMfest '08 is during Halloween week, so we'll blind ourselves with costume party science on Wednesday, Oct. 29, the night before SWOMfest. The pre-conference party theme? The '80s. Bring your Devo energy dome and leg warmers. We'll have prizes for best costume. Then we'll adjourn to Cedar Street Courtyard to see the best '80s cover band ever, the Spazmatics,
THURSDAY, OCT. 30, 2008
Our 2008 event is dedicated to understanding the building blocks of grassroots-driven word of mouth:
- Discovering your company's purpose. Are you in business to make money or to make money and change the world? You'll get an inside look at how companies and brands with a strong purpose and cause grow through inspired word of mouth and evangelism.
- Telling your company's story. How can you tell the story of your company, or product, in a way that makes it easy for others to spread it? We'll venture beyond the realm of traditional PR and give you the tools to think about building and telling a buzzworthy story.
- Understanding networks and communities. Paying people to secretly spread buzz within networks is unethical. Some say it's evil. It's against the law in some countries. How, then, does your company's purpose and story spread through networks and communities? In this session, we'll jump into the cultural science of understanding networks and how information spreads and why.
