If you're involved with commanding social media for your business or civic organization (or if you'd like to join the conversation and aren't quite sure how to jump in with both feet), you can't afford to miss SummitUp. This year's event takes place October 18 at Sinclair Community College. In response to attendee surveys, this year's event will only be a half-day, starting at 8 a.m. and running to noon.

Members of DCS and AAF-Dayton can get in at the $49 member rate. (Non-members can attend for $69.) For that, you will get four incredible speakers, breakout sessions, networking with like-minded professionals, breakfast, snack, and free parking in the garage.

Inspring speakers will engage you with keynote addresses and facilitate breakout sessions to help you learn what/how your business should be using the web, tips for developing a social media strategy, establishing and using ROI to demonstrate your social media success, and more!

Check out the website for details. See you at the summit!
