Social Media is becoming a key piece of rounding out complete firms. Michelle Long will be leading a special networking session for attendees and vendors on Sunday evening. Seasoned tweeters will have an opportunity to place twitter handles with faces. New tweeters will be able to learn valuable tips and witness the power of social media.

While planning my fall conference calendar, I polled QuickBooks blogger, Michelle Long to inquire why I should include this conference in my schedule. Long said, "The Sleeter Group's Accounting Solutions Conference offers a great opportunity for learning more about products, services, technology, and other topics which can help you better serve clients and grow your business. Plus, it is a great networking opportunity with your peers, speakers, and vendors which can be invaluable all year long."

It is rare that I make a decision without running it past Twitter.

I asked:

The responses:

I'll be there. How about you? Join us and let us know to look for you at the tweet up.

Xero will be there!

We're looking forward to attending this year's Accounting Solutions Conference - for those who don't know Xero - come say hi at our stand and take a look at our online accounting software. For those who do know Xero - it will be great to put faces to names. I'll be at the social media event too if you want to see who tweets as ^OG (Orange Girl) from the @Xero account!
