When you want to learn something, it always helps to seek an expert. Last week, Chris Brogan, social media extraordinaire and author of Trust Agents, conducted a four-hour seminar in Nashville. When I want to learn about social media, I look to Chris…and so do thousands of other people. If you don’t know who Chris Brogan is, I strongly encourage you to check out his blog.

I was unable to attend the event, but was able to watch the seminar via live video feed.  Chris gave some great advice about social media and business in general. One of the key tenets of his presentation was to be giving and helpful and it will pay off in dividends. But, you don’t have to take MY word for it. Here are a few bloggers detailing their key takeaways from Chris’ presentation:

• 5 Keys to Building Forever Followers – Chris Brogan Style
• Chris Brogan says give it away, give it away, give it away now
• Chris Brogan, Trust Agents and Social Media: Old Fashioned Common Sense
• Social Media Nuggets
• A Few Things Chris Brogan Reminded Me
  

The first hour of the event, which was not available on live video feed, is now available here. If you would like to see the entire DVD from the event, you can purchase it from Author’s Way, the sponsor of the event.

If you attended the event, what were your key takeaways? Are there other blog posts out there about Chris Brogan’s event in Nashville?
