Surefire Signs of a Virtual Violation

Lisa Manyon got burned by signing up for a conference that turned out to be less-than-reputable. She wants you to learn from her mistakes, so before you sign up for any writers conference, workshop or gathering, she has advice on how to avoid losing money (and your pride.)

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion's Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook's Morin Oluwole, and bitly's Tim Devane. Register now.
