Julien Smith will be our featured speaker at Victoria’s Social Media Club on January 20th!
Julien Smith is co-author with Chris Brogan of Trust Agents, a New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-seller that has been singled out on Amazon.com as one of the top 10 business and investing books of 2009.
To quote Julien and Chris:
“This book is your guide to a new form of power broker–web natives who trade in trust, reputation, and relationships using tools you may never even have heard of. You will learn what you need to look for in such an agent for your business or how to become one yourself. Trust Agents is your guide to the deep end of meaningful relationships on the web.
Our goal is to help you build influence, improve reputation, and earn trust.”
Since its launch in August, Trust Agents hit:
- the New York Times bestseller list (#13)
- the Wall Street Journal bestseller list (#8)
- the Amazon top 100 list (#30)
- the Amazon Best Books of 2009 list (for business and investment).
Event details:
- Wednesday, January 20th, 6:45 – 9:00 pm
- University Canada West, 950 Kings Road, Victoria BC
- $5.00 admission
Sponsors:
This event is being held in conjunction with the Third Tuesday cross-Canada tour, and we are grateful for the generous support of Joe Thornley and Thornley Fallis, Morningside Estate B and B, Level Ground Trading, University Canada West, and of course our speaker, Julien Smith.
*** Please note that we are holding our meeting in January on the third Wednesday, and at a new venue.

Nice write up Cindy – thanks.
This is a special opportunity and an event not to be missed if you’re in the Victoria area and have any interest at all in social media, or media in general.
I also wanted to mention the Morningside Estate http://www.morningsidebandb.com who have graciously offered to accommodate Julien and his family while they are in town.

I’m very excited to have Julien Smith as a speaker at Social Media Club Victoria, not only from a social media perspective but because his book has applications for all areas of our lives – personal and business.
Thanks for organizing Cindy.
