Good article, but it’s interesting that you mention Upcoming.org. For San Francisco, I find it to be pretty sparse compared to Craigslist events (http://sfbay.craigslist.org/cal/). I’m pretty sure that Craigslist also has much higher traffic than Upcoming.

I’d recommend that marketers look at both Upcoming and Craigslist, and post to whichever makes the most sense for the market/community they’re trying to reach.

I love Meetup.com. I’ve met some good business contacts by taking my dog, a Puggle, to a Puggle Owners’ Meetup group. I’m afraid to attend any business-type of meetups though because I don’t want to be sold a timeshare (which I’ve heard of happening to a business associate)! I’ve never used Yelp before and didn’t even know it existed and it looks good from what I’ve briefly checked out. Thanks for the tip!

Online Tools that Blend Online and Offline Marketing Efforts…

Marketers spend a lot of time on MySpace, Facebook and on their own blogs, wikis and podcasts to connect to other marketers and to potential customers. That’s all fine and good – it’s great, actually, but many marketers are exclusively……

Hi Chris

Yes, are absolutely right most people have overlooked these. We’ve been using it since last summer and have seen its benefits.

Nice you mentioned it here again

I’ve used Twitter & Upcoming a lot to organize Tweetups and Social Media Luncheons out here in Los Angeles.

I made it out to a few events on Meetup but started using it less and less as time went by because I ran into a lot of what seemed to be gimmicky “get-togethers.” People blasting the network to sell this or sell that. It became evident to me that I wasn’t going to find the benefit that I was looking for.

With the tweetups and luncheons, everyone always benefited from the collaborative discussion around social media. There’s always something new to talk about, a new idea to share…the conversation moves forward. Ya know?
