Wright Fri, 31 Oct 2008 22:45:42 +0000 http://www.troyrutter.com/?p=599#comment-10742 Hi Troy, thanks for the kind comments regarding Lava Row! First, kudos to you for waking up at such an ungodly hour to make the drive to KC for Highlight Midwest. That is not something I could do! I'm glad you enjoyed the presentation and the entire event. Regarding your comments about us being THE social media firm in Iowa - right now we are truly alone. However I look at guys like Mike Templeton who I think are pretty close to emerging as a force in this industry and market, and I know that within the next 2-3 years we are going to see more of them popping up. Yes, Lava Row is committed to being the best not only in the state, but the Midwest. We have a lot of hard work ahead of us if we're going to achieve that status, especially after meeting all the talented social media peeps at Highlight Midwest from KC and Omaha. For our presentation, we chose not to focus on tips/techniques largely because we felt the audience (lots of new media / social media gurus) already knew that stuff, so we wanted to focus on - as you said - being able to grow a social media biz anywhere. Thanks again for the remarks and I will hopefully see you at the next tweetup! Best, Nathan Hi Troy, thanks for the kind comments regarding Lava Row!
