St Louis Interactive Community Event

Last night, at the invitation of James O'Brien from Lashback Communications, I had the pleasure of attending the St Louis Interactive Group.

The event had over 40 people show, and featured a panel speaking on the topic of integrated marketing, including people from Time.com and Time Magazine. CNN Digital sponsored the event (turns out CNN does a lot of business in St Louis), and so did Eye Wonder (a rich media firm from Chicago) and our own Charter Communications.

Color me pleased. The event was full of bright, interesting people with real jobs in interactive marketing. While most networking events leave me dying to run out the door after 5 minutes of a watered down drink and a vegetable tray, this event was classy, well-attended, and interesting.

We even had a woman who helped create the Monk-E mail campaign for CareerBuilder (who knew she was in St Louis) that was tabbed the best offline to online campaign, ever.

The event was held at the Lucas Park Grille, which has some awesome steaks, cooked perfectly, and if I have one event to attend a month, it's going to be this one.

I'll stop gushing. Get an invitation if you're in interactive marketing in St Louis. It's worth your time. St Louis Interactive Community
