The Utah DMC Blog

In partnership with several other Utah business organizations, we are pleased to present our next event for online marketers on Tuesday, December 4th, from 6 - 8pm.

Traditional PR has always been about the art of story telling, the maturing SEO industry has always touted "Content is King" and the new kid on the block, Social Media has jumped into the game. The new reality is that all of these marketing channels need to work together for optimal success. We'll dive into how to form a successful content marketing strategy that takes all three disciplines into consideration and provide takeaways for you to drive real value and ROI for your brand or clients.

SLCSEM.org, Utah's professional association for search and social media marketers, is proud to bring the internationally known Internet marketing expert and founder of
 SEOmoz, Rand Fishkin (
@Randfish), to Salt Lake City, Utah as we continue our evening series of networking and search marketing education.
Fishkin had this to say about the event:
"I'm incredibly excited to visit Salt Lake City again and chat with the SLC|SEM folks. There's long been a hotbed of web marketing and analytics activity in SLC, and I'm thrilled to see that culture continue." If that doesn't convince you to

Digital marketing is one of the fastest growing career fields in Utah, nationally and globally. Utah has a booming digital marketing community - with many of the industry's best and brightest living, working and playing in a state many surveys have said
is a great place to live and
do business, both now and in the
future. But is Utah on track with national salaries for comparable positions? Are Utah digital marketers fairly compensated in this very competitive field? Are you having trouble finding qualified talent to fill digital marketing roles? Are Utah employers doing enough to attract and retain top talent? Are Utah companies asking too much but offering too little in salary? How does education and experience factor in? If you want answers, take our survey now - it's
less than 20 questions!!

Are you trying to hire employees to manage your company's SEO, PPC, Social Media and digital content strategies & struggling to find qualified talent? Are you an individual looking to turn your passion for social media and online content into a long-term career?

SLCSEM.org
(Utah's professional association for digital marketers) and
SMCSLC
(Social Media Club Salt Lake City) are teaming up for special evening of networking & summer fun at Park City Mountain Resort.

Google Places is going away & becoming a part of Google+, forcing businesses with a physical location to join the social network.

Is this a good thing for local & small businesses? What are the implications for organic search results in a broader sense? What do you need know about managing Google+ business profile?

Interested in meeting more members of SLCSEM.org and learning from their experience? Thinking about joining yourself? This is the perfect event to attend if so! You'll get a chance to mix, mingle and talk shop with the best & brightest in Utah's search and digital marketing community.
