Any upcoming user group meetings planned for October?

I agree that we are due for a local gathering, it looks like the last one was six months ago. How do we make that happen? Can anyone plan it?

I would be happy to help plan one for late Oct / early Nov!

Hi everyone - yep - I'm no longer the organizer as of earlier this year. Paul Wilson and Sophia Farina took over the organizer role.

I would also like to attend a MUG here locally soon!

GOOD DAY!

I am looking to organize the next MUG for mid November after the election. I will have a venue confirmed in the coming days targeting November 24th.

Is there anyone interested in speaking at that event? Love to hear your ideas!

Thanks,

Paul Wilson

Just some suggestions on what I'd like to hear at a users group:

1. We are just exploring their new v2 email editor and modules and finding that even when we send through email on acid email checker there are still so many inconsistencies on outlook, etc, would be interesting to cover how others are combating this.  ie. do they contract out responsive templates, is there someone in house developing, have they experimented with them and what have they learned.  Also what is true responsiveness, many companies still send image based to avoid all these inconsistencies and ensure constant look, even if its not truly responsive or built for mobile etc. Should anyone really invest a lot of effort to move that direction?

2. We are also doing more dynamic content using  snippets and segments and would be interesting to hear how others are using or not using. Segments don't let you use smart lists or sfdc custom objects

3. Email insights - do other people use and here again there are some limitations I've found such as there search only does "starts with" etc.

4. We are b2c and I'd I often here a lot of b2b uses but not as many b2c and overall would be interested in hearing about their execution of some of these things. 

Hey, I'm disappointed that we couldn't meet before Thanksgiving and it might be tight to meet before Christmas, but I'm still up for this.  My office doesn't have a great space to host, but I'm happy to help organize the details.  Paul, if you'd like me to take the lead on this, I'm happy to do so.  Or we can have a little committee to organize. 

I'm also happy to present on my "traffic cop" since it sounds like people would be interested.

Who has an office that has a great meeting space? Something fun that we could do for lunch or a late afternoon before rush hour?

Hi everyone,

I agree I've been waiting for a user group as well and I really like Amy Berg's suggestions for email/dynamic content discussions, etc. & Laura Michael's "traffic cop" suggestion would be great as well.

I believe that I can offer space in our building, Gogo Business Aviation - 105 Edgeview Drive, Suite 300, Broomfield, CO. What does everyone think about December 12th from 1:30 - 3:30?

I'm really happy to arrange the space but likely won't have much time to coordinate an agenda. If we have a few takers I can get the ball rolling & hopefully a few volunteers to support content and other coordination as needed

Thanks,

Hi all,

Sorry I couldn't make the session: Ironically, we had a Marketo consulting session today. Hope to attend the next one!

Great meeting yesterday. Thank you, Beth, for hosting, Paul for organizing, and to Laura and Amy for their fantastic presentations. I took away some great insights, and I'm looking forward to our next gathering!
