The three-day event was filled with networking and learning opportunities that allowed attendees to share ideas, ask questions and create plans for immediate and long-term business growth.

Ideas shared during the day included Marketopia CMO Andra Hedden, who explained to the crowd the importance of optimization with this great quote, “If you've got a website that looks good but doesn't do anything for optimization, it might as well be a billboard in the desert.” Marketopia CEO Terry Hedden opened day two with the assurance that the entire conference was focused on “2020 as the year to maximize your business value, prepare your future and pave the way for epic business growth.”
