4 Reasons You Can't Even..

Today’s millennials “can’t even” anymore. They can’t deal with minor day to day struggles that older generations would have given an arm or leg for. Millennials are lucky to have any piece of information or answer to there every “oh so important” questions; “Is there really a bacon shortage predicted for 2017?” With Google, Wiki, WebMD, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter there really isn’t ANYTHING you can’t find out today. Let’s face it, the children of today’s millennials will have a very difficult time getting away with anything. 

Unfortunately, with access to the all-knowing Google at our fingertips, Millennials can’t even face-to-face anymore. The need to do business face-to-face, look for answers from peers, or seek additional information from others has more or less died. But I am going to tell you, yes you the Millennial reading this on their new super-sized mobile device, why you can even attend PUBCON SFIMA Summit 2016 here in sunny south Florida.

Millennials seek out things that are useful and can enhance their lives. Although a conference is useful, it is also time consuming and out of the way. Why attend a conference that you will eventually be able to stream or read from your hand held device? Here is why live face-to-face settings such as Pubcon SFIMA, is both useful and “cool.”

1. Networking: Pubcon SFIMA Summit is two days of constant informal face-to-face meetings with people in your industry, competitors, and clients. Do not shy away from competitors but learn from their mistakes or relish in their accomplishments. Seek out new connections and advice from other areas in the industry. And lastly, put a face to your clients you have only virtually met. Getting to know someone on a personal level can be a huge business game changer!
2. Education: SFIMA meets monthly and hosts large conference such as Pubcon SFIMA Summit 2016 where creative juices are replenished and incredible brains are picked. This association provides endless information for all members new and existing with keynotes like Scott Stratten, Brad Geddes, Dennis Yu, and Tandem Interactives favorite; Joe Laratro.

From one millennial to another, SFIMA is not something you “can’t even.”
4. It’s Fun!: Believe it or not, you are in the “coolest” line of business. No one knows how to have a better time than online marketers. Isn’t our moto “work hard, play hard”? If not, it may as well be! Mix in with SFIMA’s social gatherings and see for yourself. Doing business should not be stale and boring. Get off the internet and start living! Accessing industry information via internet is nothing like live interactions. J

There is a huge benefit to connecting with people in similar and vertical industries that has been over looked by the recent generations. Joining an organization such as South Florida Internet Marketing Association is great to boost your social media profiles and resumes but why not get every penny out of your investment? Engaging and participating with SFIMA members may be just the thing your business or career is lacking.
