This Tuesday (17th July) we held our second Facebook Marketing Bootcamp at We Are What We Do in London. With Facebook trainer, Tania Jackson of Red Idea on hand, the day-long workshop aims to provide a hands-on and more personalised approach where attendees can learn what they can do to improve their techniques and strategies and how to do it.

We thought we'd share just a few things we learnt from Tuesday's Bootcamp.

What better way to begin our Facebook Marketing Conference next week (Weds 18th July) than with Facebook themselves?!

After some essential tea & coffee and a short welcome, we'll kick things off with a keynote from Andy Pang, Measurement Solutions Group Lead from Facebook.

You'll then get to hear about BBC Worldwide, Cadbury Dairy Milk / Kraft Foods, Yorkshire Tea, Manchester City FC, TBG Digital, Beyond, Markettiers4DC, Edelman, GlobalWebIndex and more! The full programme is below...

Remember the Chinwag Insight: Facebook Marketing Conference that took place last October? Well, it's back and it's bigger and better than before. A day packed full of case studies, panels, advice sessions and insight into marketing on the 800m+ social behemoth that is Facebook with the new commercial realities post-IPO.

This time around we're reaching an even broader digital marketing and agency audience by partnering with Our Social Times, who run events covering social media measurement, marketing and analytics to bring you a day packed with strategy insight, analysis and practical examples of how to access, engage and build value from Facebook's massive data-rich audience.

The first event of the series is taking place in London on Wednesday 18th July with future events planned for New York and Singapore later in the year. Whilst we confirm the full programme details there's a chance to save 50% off the standard rate with a Trust Ticket.

You don’t make viral videos. Sorry, the truth hurts.

As a conciliation prize I’ll tell you that you were half right. You do make videos. But it’s the public that makes a viral, so you shouldn’t be selling it to a client under that label.

Today is the last chance to grab an early-bird ticket to this week's Facebook Marketing Conference on Thu 6th Oct. We know everyone works late, so the early-bird lasts until midnight.

Early-bird tickets start at just £199+VAT+booking fee with the chinwag discount code, saving £100 off the regular price. And for those interested in the Facebook Marketing Bootcamp workshop on Wednesday, there's just one ticket left.

The full programme is up on the website with a few last-minute additions helping us to take an in-depth look of the impact of the f8 announcements. It's going to be a busy day with 30 speakers from leading brands and agencies, discussing the strategies of getting ROI fro Facebook Marketing.

This is a very handy resource for anyone tasked with getting stuck in to a Facebook marketing campaign. Priit Kallas at DreamGrow Social Media has put together a downloadable PDF with dimensions and sizes:

Seven hundred million is a very big number. And with Facebook's big number comes big opportunities for branding, marketing, commerce, games, analytics and insight.

Following on from the success of Social Media Week London, Chinwag is launching "Chinwag Insight: Facebook Marketing", a brand new full day conference exploring how to harness the 700m strong userbase to create a positive impact on their business. 

The event scheduled for early Autumn will take place in central London for senior marketers from agencies, brands and media owners and is the first event (we can find) focusing solely on Facebook as a marketing platform.
