The Team of cool people helping us with the Tweetup:

We’re very fortunate to have a great team on the ground in Miami helping us plan and promote the Social Fresh BonVoyage Tweetup.  The DoubleTree Grand Hotel has been an awesome partner; getting us an incredible Group Rate for the Social Fresh Cruisers and providing the venue for the Tweetup.  If you’re traveling  a couple of hours for the Bon Voyage Tweetup and would like to stay at the Hotel; contact me at rtucker@cruisedeals.com so you can take advantage of our Group Rate.

A special thanks to @MiamiandBeaches who helped us get the venue and is bringing many of their members in the Miami Hospitality and Travel Industry who are embracing social media and are excited to meet our guests from out of town.

We will be joined by the South Florida new media community, including Social Media Club South Florida, RefreshMiami , AWC, and others at the Bon Voyage Tweetup.  The Social Fresh Cruisers want to be able to put a Face to a Twitter ID for as many in our South Florida Network as possible!

Social Fresh Cruise - all about the Face to Face

Posted by richtucker in Attend on September 21st, 2009

I was just reading Greg Cangialosi’s Blog. His latest post titled “Trust Agents: There Are No Shortcuts to Real Relationships” gets to the heart of the Social Fresh Cruise.

You have to invest time and money in activities that get you face to face with key people in your network. You build real relationships during the face to face activities. On 11.12.09, the Social Fresh Cruise will give you the opportunity for 4 days to enjoy awesome dinners, watch broadway-style shows, private parties, play in the Casino, and participate in interactive social media sessions with others who are leading the way on the Social Web.

I challenge you to read Greg’s blog post about Real Relationships and try not to get excited about joining Greg, Chris Brogan, and many other Social Media Leaders on the Social Fresh Cruise. I don’t believe it’s possible!  

The investment is only $395 per person which inlcudes all taxes and fees. We have a few spots remaining, email info [at] socialfresh.com to request an invite code.

Social Fresh Cruise - Sessions Announcement

Posted by richtucker in Attend, Enjoy on September 10th, 2009

Our goal is for the Conference Sessions to be Fresh, Forward-Thinking, and Interactive. We want the sessions to spark ideas and conversation throughout the cruise whether that be at dinner, by the pool, at the cocktail parties, at the blackjack tables, etc.. After the cruise, the #SoCruise attendees will have a distinct advantage over those who did not attend thanks to a stronger network, new ideas, and rejuvenation from a 4-day Cruise Vacation!

Four 45 minute sessions are set. We are excited to announce that Chris Brogan will do a Reverse Q&A, Greg Cangialosi will be presenting the Future Interconnectivity of Email & Social Media, Amber Naslund Building ‘Real’ Communities, Jason Keath the future Democratization of specific Industries facilitated by Social Media (a similar panel Jason is pitching for SXSW made it to #8 on the Hot List). The subject matter on these may change slightly as we get closer to the Cruise!

To insure that the content is valuable and relevant to everyone sailing on the Social Fresh Cruise, attendees will pitch Session ideas, Q&As, Panels, interviews, etc. for the remaining 4 sessions. We are going to use IdeaScale to facilitate the process. Many attendees have inquired about the opportunity to speak on the Cruise, this is your chance to speak or suggest a topic. So get your pitches ready and we’ll start the process soon. Follow @SoCruise on twitter for the announcement with link to start making your session pitches.
