Ron McArthur, president of WSI, says, “According to eMarketer, advertising spending in Mexico is expected to increase 7.5% in 2010. For that reason, WSI is investing a lot of resources to help our Internet Marketing Consultants leverage this growth through our relationship with Google Latin America. By sponsoring this iMex Conference next week, we seek to educate and empower local business owners and marketing professionals to effectively use Internet marketing, build their brands online, generate more leads and boost their revenues.”

The WSI Area Representative for Southern Mexico, Carlos Guzman, will share a presentation about how marketers can leverage social networking tools and technologies to build brand credibility and drive more qualified leads to their business. Local WSI Consultant based in Mexico, Lev Castalan, as well as Toronto based Internet Marketing Consultant, Doug Schust, will join Guzman at the iMex Conference to share their expertise as well. Collaboratively, they will deliver four presentations at the event.

The presentations are entitled "Your Presence on the Internet" (Castelan), "Positioning in the Search Engines: The Importance of SEO and PPC" (Schust), "Lead Generation Through Search Marketing: Ad and Content" (Schust), "Social Media for Lead Generation and Brand Positioning" (Guzman). Also, Ana Paula Blanco, the PR Manager for Google Mexico, will share more about Google’s vision and the latest online marketing tools available for Mexican businesses.

Carlos Guzman, WSI Area Representative for Southern Mexico , says, “Our 2010 goal for the Mexican market is to continue working alongside Google to educate local marketers on the value of online advertising. We have a team of Internet marketing experts, whose goal is to consult businesses on how to incorporate tactical marketing campaigns, such as advanced paid search advertising, search engine optimization (SEO) and social media marketing, into their overall strategy. I am honored to share my knowledge, alongside my WSI colleagues and Google, to help marketers learn how to leverage Internet marketing”.

This is the second iMex Conference that WSI has participated in, and one of many Internet marketing seminars to which WSI has contributed.
