The marketing team finally had its first "real" meeting. It is amazing how much work can be done virtually. We all recognize that marketing TiECon in 2006 is a monumental task since we are looking to make a monumental improvement in attendance.
And who will market TiECon East 2006?
You! Being a non-profit organization means that we do not have the resources for advertising. Every dollar that is spent on marketing means that either we raise the registration fee (something no one wants) or we cut back on the quality of the conference (again, something that no one wants).
So we are relying on people who already know TiE as an organization or have attended other TiE conferences or events to reach out to their colleagues, peers, and friends. If you see the value in being a member of this organization or attending the events, particularly TiECon, then we ask you to let others know about it. And in doing so, if you need our help in any way, just ask. You can simply shoot an email to the TiE Boston office.

TiECON East has evolved to be not only the premier conference on the East Coast for innovation and entrepreneurship but the only one that is organized only by volunteers. Each year 80-100 volunteers from the Boston tech community get together to put on TiECON East. That is why we are able to offer incredible content and speakers for just $300!
