San Francisco, CA, July 12, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Marcademy (http://Marcademy.com/), Inc., founder and chief executive officer Tim O’Connor will join a panel of small business experts to kick off Bizapalooza ’13. Bizapalooza is an annual online conference designed to help attendees overcome common issues facing small businesses today and give them valuable tools for success. The event runs from July 16-18, 2013.

With topics ranging from brand building, to customer retention, to the effective use of social media, in his discussion entitled “How to Select an Online Marketing Company and Not Get Scammed,” O’Connor relies on his extensive professional marketing background as he walks attendees through a host of important lessons for identifying the best Internet marketing partner for your small business. He joins representatives from a variety of industry leaders from HP MagCloud, FoundMoney, QuestionPro, GoDaddy.com, freelancer.com, and others.

In addition to founding San Francisco-based Marcademy, the country’s fastest growing Internet marketing career training school for modern marketers, Internet marketers, and growth hackers, O’Connor has led marketing efforts at three multi-billion businesses and several in the hundreds of millions, been a founding member of four startups, invested in or advised early stage tech companies, and been named a digital thought leader by Jive Software and MIT/Sloan. His breadth of experience makes him a welcome addition to the already distinguished Bizapalooza speaker panel.

O’Connor said, “It’s tough to get more customers when your business is not online. But finding professional Internet marketers who can deliver on their promises can be equally challenging ‘What do I need?’ ‘What do I look for?’ ‘Who do I trust?’ My goal is to help small business owners learn fool-proof ways to identify, select, and ultimately achieve success when hiring an online marketing company to help grow their business.”

Up Next: Marcademy’s "Test-Drive Online Marketing" Weekend

In addition to Bizapalooza ’13, O’Connor and a team of Marcademy instructors will continue the highly successful “Test-Drive Online Marketing” weekend program on July 27-28 at the school’s San Francisco location. Attendees receive an introductory crash course, learning online marketing basics and experiencing life as an online marketer or growth hacker. Tuition is only $99 and includes:

• 2 days hands-on experience in storytelling & UX, social marketing, web optimization, coding for marketers, SEO and more.

• Mentored by world-class marketing pros

• Networking dinner with school advisers/teachers

"The experience was beyond what I could have imagined. I learned so much -- to tell you the truth my brain is still recovering,” said Veronica Kim, a recent Marcademy Test Drive Weekend attendee. “Within two days the instructors covered everything from marketing fundamentals to tips on maximizing the incredible array of Internet marketing tools available today.

“More importantly, they took time to understand each participant’s background and were genuinely interested our future. It was a great feeling to walk out of the workshop without “information overload" and a clear agenda of what to do next."
