The Minnesota Search Engine Marketing Association has grown to be an exceptional group putting together outstanding search and online marketing events monthly in the Twin Cities.  The first MnSearch event of 2014 took place last night and Spyder Trap is proud to be the venue host for all of the 2014 monthly events.

Search Marketing & Online Marketing Goodness

MnSearch has earned a reputation for putting on valuable monthly events and last night was no exception.  Exploring video optimization and marketing, Noah Turner of FRWD, Manny Rivas of aimclear and Carie Otto of Three Deep Marketing gave solid presentations, tips, tools and answers to the attendees.

MnSearch has proven to bring in top local and national online experts over the past few years and last night they even gave notice that a one day search summit with some big names in the industry will happen in 2014.  My advice is to become a member, attend events, meet great people and learn a ton!

A Great Minneapolis Event Space

Last night was something that our CEO Mike Rynchek, our CFO Barb Vanags and myself envisioned when we took over the space at 1625 Hennepin Avenue just about 14 months ago.  Our main level was built to be open, collaborative and able to host various events.

During the work day you’ll find a few large tables, couches, chairs, stage/steps, bean bags and a standing work station.  Anywhere from 2 to 30 of our amazing team members use the space in different ways at one time and we are very fortunate to have this space.

While we have had about six events already at Spyder Trap, last night’s had a different energy with industry peers and enthusiasts in the building and it was awesome.  We are looking forward to 2014 with MnSearch and we welcome you to attend a future event.
