“For Art’s Sake” Not Forgetting The Bushfires
artwork in the cloister
by Karin Riederer
If you’ve peered into the Abbotsford Convent courtyard this week – especially from Handsome Steve’s balcony – you might have noticed that a word has appeared in the lawn.
what's a nice girl like you doing at a marketing shindig??
Coming from the non-profit sector I came into the Marketing Now conference (Melbourne 22-23 September 09) with my metaphorical arms crossed and resistant. A regular Lil' Miss Snippy with a huge non-profit chip on my shoulder. The words 'marketing', 'customers' gave me and still do, give me the heebie-jeebies.
I didn't come to learn how to be a marketer or to learn how to ensnare unsuspecting customers. (Not that all marketers are like that, just the ones that ring me at 6.30pm when I am mid burrito! ie commonly referred to as Burrito Interruptus :)
I came because the Social Media focus of the conference not only intrigued me but taken over my life and my little enterprise Digital Kulcha. I wanted to know more about how and why this Social Media zeitgeist had moved into my life and how it could possibly impact the communities & non-profit, community organisations I worked with....and oh yes, I wanted to change the world (again!).
