I have already proclaimed how much I enjoy the format of the upcoming version of Local U Advanced. It is in the Valley Forge/Philadelphia area the night of March 7 and the day of March 8th.

Besides our all new content, great food, drink and conversation, Wil Reynolds will be providing the keynote. He is an incredible speaker and you will learn some of the most effective strategies for driving local customers and fans digitally with his Real Company Stuff guidance.

To keep the atmosphere intimate we are limiting total attendance to 60 folks to be sure that everybody gets the answers that they want. We are currently at 20 sign ups. That leaves only 40 more spots.

We are also hoping that you will see some beta software that will change how you are currently doing local. Incredibly good stuff.

It will be 36 hours of geeking out on local with David Mihm, Mary Bowling, Mike Ramsey, Aaron Weiche, Ed Reese, Will Scott, Derek Wetzel of Google and myself in a relaxed and collegial environment. That’s the good news.

The bad news is that the EARLYBIRD discount will be ending on February 7th, just 4 days away and this week is your last chance to save $100. If you are thinking of coming, now is the time to sign up.

Head over to Localu.org/Advanced2014 and sign up while you can still save the $100.
