doterati Brand Flakes Breakfast - A Success! We want more Brand Flakes!

Yesterday, there was another doterati event - this time a breakfast for showcasing creative online branding strategies. The event named, BrandFlakes: Online Creative Approaches was held at a hotel downtown. Great crowd of people and many new faces!

Our very own Sterling Raphael was moderating the event, and the speakers in attendance came from all different backgrounds, Anne Fischer of Busch Entertainment, Beth Marshall of the Orlando International Fringe Theatre Festival, and Dave Ugan from Ripley's Entertainment. All gave backgrounds of where their respective companies have been in terms of branding their products and services, but also where they are going, especially in regards to the social media and technology. Each one of them have accepted that they needed to jump on the bandwagon of signing up for Twitter, have a Facebook presence and more. They realize these are innovative tools to keep the company/consumer relationship more personable, and have a unique way of providing more information out to public.

Were you there? What did you get out of this event? Would you be interested in a session done more on personal branding or even personal and company branding - how to differentiate between the two?

Many thanks to Taylor and Greg Rollett for putting this event together!
