One of the key messages from DOYO Live’s keynote speaker was that today’s business professional has an attention span comparable to a goldfish.

We know that sounds bad, but it’s just an adaptation to the overwhelming amount of information we’re given every day. Today’s digital marketer has to cut the fluff and get to the point!

So with that in mind, here’s a super-scannable look at our favorite people and presentations from DOYO Live 2017:  

Debra Jasper – Mindset Digital (Keynote Speaker) 

  • Don’t write long emails, they won’t get read
  • Use more slides in your presentations but less words per slide
  • Pick a happier LinkedIn profile photo
  • Use Readable.io to see how easy your content is to read (this blog scored an A)

Dennis Schiraldi – DOYO Live

  • Turn video content into blog content instead of vice versa

Jim Komara – PALO Creative “Be the Big Dot: Local Search Results” 

  • NAP- make sure your company’s name, address and phone number are the same across all its various listings or get penalized by Google

Marisa Sergi – RedHead Wines “Guerilla Marketing 101: Creating Buzz for Your Brand!”

  • Be authentic
