Description
User-generated content has disrupted business as usual. The current economy is asking everyone to do more with less, while today's digital environment is providing new opportunities to create unique products and services. Customers are marketers, new distribution models replace the traditional, and businesses everywhere are forced to rethink their revenue models.
Following the success of mediabistro's first UGCX in San Jose last February, the fall 2009 conference will uncover the best places to target and maximize content, optimize customer data, and generate revenue as the big shift in media continues to take shape.
