TESTIMONIALS

This conference was an incredibly valuable investment for me. The fresh set of speakers addressed many new ways that local media companies are attacking the rapidly changing local/social space. Getting introduced to new models and new companies pushing the boundaries really stimulated my thinking about our own business. Thanks to the Kelsey crew for yet again putting on a great conference. These events are the best value for my time and budget. Wouldn’t miss one! —Brian Kraff, CEO, Market Hardware
 

I enjoyed participating in the conference very much. You attracted a great crowd and I learned something in each of the sessions I attended. —Anna Zornosa, Executive VP and GM, Dealix
 

It was good fun. The subject matter covered was really interesting. —Dave Alberga, CEO, The Active Network
 

I felt the content and presenters across the board shared invaluable insight and experiences that will benefit all who attended as we navigate the local marketplace, its consistent evolution and this unprecedented economic climate. Great Job. —Tony Wills, Chief Revenue Officer, Dotmenu
 

Precisely because of these tough times, “local search” remains massively interesting. Marketplaces 2009 provided a terrific vantage from which to assess the full landscape and identify opportunities for further growth. —Matt Howard, CEO, SMBLive
 

I had a great time. I feel like I’ve found my “flock,” having tangled with so many of the same local directory product, business model, sales, etc., issues. Now on to apply those insights! —Willem Maas, Founder and Publisher, Green Home Guide
 

I enjoyed myself and was extremely impressed with the high level organizations and individuals present. Great showing. —Mike Rutz, Vice President, Angie’s List
 

I always look forward the Kelsey Marketplaces conference. They bring together a great bunch of people. My days are always filled with valuable meetings — both planned and serendipitous. And this year, I was pleased to find that the event was more intimate and ideal for networking. —Craig Donato,  COO, Oodle
 

Thanks for hosting a wonderful conference last week in L.A. — we made some great new connections and had a chance to catch up with many of our existing partners. —Krista Plaisted Campbell, Google

I've been attending Kelsey Group events for the past five years, and always found them a great way to reconnect with peers from the industry, and to be thoughtful about where the local space is headed. —Matthew Berk, Executive VP, Product Engineering, Marchex
