Inside Music MediaJerry Del Colliano

2013 is the year that you must master digital media to be viable, employable and prosperous.

The answers are not going to find you.

You are going to have to go after the answers.

That’s why the next Media Solutions Lab January 30^th at The Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, AZ is a meaningful refresher for digital media in the year ahead.  It is the most comprehensive, up-to-the-minute source of reliable information for the changing radio, media, digital and music industries.

Our mission is to provide those facing the many challenges ahead with authoritative, cutting edge information to not just survive in changing times, but to thrive.

The Media Solutions Lab is an all-day interactive learning experience in which the teacher and the taught together do the teaching.

It begins Wednesday, January 30^th with a complimentary breakfast; 9am class starts.  Jerry Del Colliano presents the emerging trends for 2013 and then delivers the answers to key issues (listed below) that will be so critical to your success.  A complementary lunch is served at The Phoenician 12 noon.  “Visiting professors” join Jerry in the afternoon.  Complimentary breaks are offered all day.

Then the next morning, Thursday, January 31^st, is the optional Next Day Big Ideas roundtable breakfast where Jerry shares the best new thinking that will help you achieve your personal and business goals in 2013.  A complimentary buffet breakfast is served.

Jerry will also be meeting with attendees who want additional private time.
