Social Media Week NYC – From Burger Blogging to Bar Owner to Cake Boss to Dragon Meat Shirt Entrepreneur

By February 21, 2013 it will have been 1,589 days since I started on the glorious pursuit of delicious Burgers; The Burger Conquest.

Along that ride there’s been a few milestones:

• Eaten nearly 600 Burgers
• Opened a Bar named Idle Hands
• Started serving top rated Burgers
• 8 TV appearances including an entire episode of TLC’s “Cake Boss“
• Became business development manager for victors of the “Great Food Truck Race,” the Grill ‘Em All Truck 
• A Proclamation from the Mayor at The Food Film Festival
• Became a part of Get Real Presents Beer & Food Festivals
• Started selling t-shirts with images of Butcher cut Mythical Animals

Was it a result of starting the blog? Quite possibly. Why don’t you start one yourself and find out?

On that note, if you are going to be attending NYC Social Media week, be sure to come to this event at Idle Hands Bar:

Doing It Live: The Integration of Social in Live Events
Tuesday, February 19, 2013
From 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM (EST)

Idle Hands Bar
25 Avenue B
Downstairs
New York, NY 10009

Hosted by: TBA Global

Marketing mediums merge and build off one another to maximize communication and impact. Nowhere is this more prevalent than in the integration of social into live events. Social spurs connections, creates discussion and generates awareness both inside and outside a live event. It creates extremely powerful experiences that blur the lines between what is happening in the digital world and what is happening in the physical space.

PANEL DISCUSSION
Join us for happy hour and a thought-provoking panel discussion about the integration of social and digital into live experiences. Topics will include the changing nature of Twitter and Facebook amplification, the power of social media promotion, the impact of location-aware technology like Foursquare, and the future of experiential marketing. Our panelists are some of the best in the business!

Don’t miss this great opportunity to discover new information, join the dialogue, and meet the people that are shaping this ever-evolving world.
