Thursday, September 3 is the next SMCUV event.

We are excited to have George Wright of the “Will It Blend” viral phenomenom as our presenter this month.

George has a proven track record of delivering strategic thinking, brand awareness and marketing strategy to drive strategic, sustainable, corporate growth.  These new strategies and tactics can be adapted and implemented by other companies without a large financial investment.

During his career, George has produced several award-winning campaigns and is the recipient of multiple awards, including a Clio, the .net Award , Silver Anvil, Golden Spike Award, YouTube Awards short list, and 2007 Best of Broadband and two Gold Communicator awards.

In addition to being a thought leader on the social media and viral marketing, George has demonstrated that YouTube and other social media sites can be harnessed to achieve corporate purposes.

Described by Entrepreneur.com as one of the 13 best marketing ideas of “all time”, George Wright’s Will it Blend? viral marketing campaign has changed the face and the future of online marketing.  Seen by more than 200 million people on the Internet and reported on by traditional media outlets like the Today Show, the Tonight Show, the History Channel, The Big Idea, etc.  Will it Blend? continues to deliver unprecedented corporate awareness through social media channels.  This new form of marketing has delivered a 700 percent increase in sales for Blendtec, a small Utah based blender manufacturer, with an initial investment of $50.

Thursday, September 3rd at 7:00, we will be meeting at The Noni building in Provo
