The last few years, I’ve really backed off of the speaking circuit. I used to try to speak at ever major marketing conference in the country. It was exhausting… not just wrestling with travel, but dealing with expensive hotels, monster conference halls, and overpriced everything.
About Sioux Falls
Then the incredible folks at KeyMedia Solutions asked that I come out to Sioux Falls to speak. They told me that it was going to be a unique event but I never imagined how amazing it would be. I flew out a few days early, landing in Sioux Falls airport… with its 7 terminals. I walked down, grabbed my bag, walked outside, and we were on the road! The flight out was as simple.
I stayed at the historic (and haunted) Alex Johnson hotel, avoiding the haunted floor – of course. Downtown Sioux Falls was a short walk from parks, breweries, museums, shops, and every type of restaurant. The hotel even has a rooftop bar with incredible views of the city. Over the few days I spent there, I visited national parks, Mount Rushmore, wineries, a bear and wildlife reserve, the city of Deadwood… and so much more.
Our ambassador was the founder of KeyMedia Solutions, Korena Keys, a wonderful host and successful entrepreneur. It was pretty obvious it was going to be an amazing event with her team in charge! Korena brought in talent from all over the country to develop an inspiring, single track of speakers who had really done their homework. The setting was comfortable – not some massive halls with standing room only.
You can see by the smile on my face how much I enjoyed the back and forth with everyone in attendence. I think this is the first event that I ever spoke at where I asked if I could come back the next year. And this year, I’m blessed to be join by a couple of professionals in the industry that I absolutely love and admire:
- Andrea Vahl – perhaps the most talented educator on Facebook and social media marketing I know, Andrea is also an accomplished stand-up comedienne! Her presentation had everyone in stitches and was packed with information.
- Phil Gerbyshak – Phil was a Navy Veteran as well and we’ve had an online friendship that easily spans 15 years. Phil is upbeat and the best sales & marketing speaker I know.
