Social Media Marketing World 2018 recently wrapped up in San Diego, California. For the last four years I’ve attended the conference and the past two years, I’ve shared the key takeaways I learned from the speakers and experts at the event.
In this episode, I share my lessons from the conference and why I believe it’s important to focus on one main takeaway when attending a massive conference or industry event like this. I explain how it can help you focus on one big change in your business to help you move the needle forward and take action to achieve success.
