Columbus, OH -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/21/2010 -- Ryan Bauer, founder of the media clearinghouse, Ryanomics Media and a newly announced partner at Vivian’s Voice, a digital marketing and mobile media agency in Columbus is sharing his new media expertise as a keynote speaker for mywebWOW!com’s How to WOW! Now seminar on April 29, 2010.

At the seminar, Bauer will be sharing a 30-day action plan on social media, marketing campaigns and new media to help attendees further their businesses or start one. Bauer has contributed his innovative marketing campaigns to several successful start-up organizations and several well-known alternative brand clients. He is the strategist behind 20 brands, both locally and nationally and he also has an extensive background in the environmental and eco-advocacy industry and the tech and gaming industry.

“The most successful businesses now speak directly with their customers through a content-focused strategy,” Bauer said. “Your company, too, must find its voice and create bold and compelling content that will attract people to you. I will show you how to make social media operational by integrating five key points.”

Bauer is passionate about using marketing strategies as a solution to overcome challenging economic hurdles facing today’s organizations. His areas of expertise include experiential marketing, social media, leadership strategies, new media, start-ups and community organizing. He is a well-known community leader and speaker and his insights on the success of new media strategies make him one of the most desired speakers in the marketing industry today.

Other keynote speakers who will be joining Bauer at the seminar are Gabe Spiegel (former Fox news anchor turned PR guru), Shelley Moore (founder and president of Insight Strategic Concepts), Bruce Heinemann (former fortune 500 CFO, now principal of The Heinemann Group) and Andrew Catapano (founder and CEO of mywebWOW!com).

In addition, several recognizable small business owners from local companies such as Barrel 44, The Candle Lab, Tan Envy and Small Business Beanstalk will be on hand to facilitate an “open-forum” panel discussion where they will share stories of personal success in their online marketing strategies, as well as answer attendees’ questions about building your own WOW! factor.

Seminar attendees will learn how to successfully start a business on the Web, drive traffic and increase sales through the use of social media marketing, search engine optimization, Web site usability design standards, unique branding and public relations initiatives — the WOW! elements every business needs.

The seminar will take place April 29 from 6-9 p.m. at the downtown Courtyard by Marriott, located at 35 W. Spring St. The event is $45 and a portion of the proceeds from the event will go directly to Junior Achievement of Central Ohio.
