Boot Camp | Real Time

After much preparation (both measured and frenzied) and some astonishing sales work by our newest recruit Cory-Ann Joseph, Boot Camp has begun. In fact, it’s happening right now.

Day one, the morning

So what’s happened so far?

• Writing for the Web 101
• Social Networking for Profit
• Kick Start Your Web Strategy

I throw all objectivity into the wind, being that I taught Writing for the Web 101 (the strongest workshop, of course).  The old staples — the aforementioned and Kick Start Your Web Strategy (led by Morgan) — went off without a hitch, and indeed some valuable insight, both from the workshop itself and from some workshop attendees.  For me, some of those great questions will shape next year’s presentation.

Then there was Shane’s brand new and much a-buzzed course, Social Networking for Profit. Since I’m blogging about it, this has suddenly become metaphysical.

The spread

The Radisson Royal Hotel seemed almost truly royal during lunch. There were shrimp served in glasses. You can’t get classier than that.

Day one, the afternoon, i.e. now

• Driving Self Service Online
• Web Analytics 101
• Web Content Strategy

Shane must be tired with two back to back courses, with Web Content Strategy this afternoon. Colin and Brian are rolling out their new course, Driving Self Service online (check out their promo) and Clodagh is laying the ground work for Niamh on Thursday with Web Analtyics 101.

The important stuff: brownies

I hate to be base, but the coffee breaks come with brownies. Perhaps this should have been our slogan.

Check us out tomorrow with some more riveting Boot Camp (semi) live coverage. Or come see us at the Radisson Royal hotel. Maybe I can sneak you a brownie.
