The Situation
Times have changed… a lot! Events that put you in a
roomful of press and do nothing else are no longer
sufficient to meet the challenges you face today.
Of course press coverage is still critical but brands today
need to engage consumers directly, share compelling
content with them, and harness their influence to help sell
products.
By combining an exclusive press-only event with a
showcase for passionate tech enthusiasts, getgeeked is
designed to help you meet all the marketing/PR challenges
you face at one affordable, easy-to-execute event.
But that’s not all. We’ll work with you to create experiences
that our attendees will share across their social networks
and we’ll make sure you create your own compelling
content so you have a story to tell your fans after the
event.

The 4 C’s of getgeeked
1.  Coverage – You’ll meet with all the key tech press you’re accustomed to seeing during
getgeeked’s 2½ hour exclusive press-only event. We also have campaigns designed to attract
mom bloggers, broad-reach media, and local broadcast networks.
2.  Community – After the press time, we open the doors to over 1000 passionate, hard-to-reach
tech enthusiasts who are eager to learn about your products, get to know your brand, give
you feedback you won’t get anywhere else, and share their interactions with you on social
media.
3.  Content – Making sure your interactions with attendees generate content for you to share
after the event is a fundamental mission of getgeeked. We have our own editorial staff and we
record everything (interviews at your booth, conference sessions, attendee reactions, etc.). We
live stream the event and share the content on all our social channels, but, more importantly,
every sponsor receives their own Dropbox folder full of photos and videos after the event so
they can share their getgeeked experience with consumers around the world.
4.  Commerce – Selling products is the ultimate ROI. At getgeeked you can make your products
available for attendees to order online in our Social Shopping Zone.

Praise for the getgeeked New York
Highly recommended! getgeeked hits all the high notes for Lenovo with excellent attendance from the media and the unique
opportunity to meet with tech loving consumers. But wait there’s more … our conference session was professionally produced
and yet another way to get our story and message across to the attendee’s. On top of the event we had a number of great
stories from the press and fantastic social media traffic to show the folks back on the company home front. Jeff Witt, Senior
Marketing Manager, Lenovo
Tremendous first event. Barry promised us an event that was different and he delivered. Not only did getgeeked attract the key
press and the "right" consumers, but their focus on helping us generate social media activity and create content we could share
after the event was something you just don't find at other events. Andy Panizza, Sr. Marketing Manager, Sling Media
getgeeked is a great forum for introducing new technologies and products to both press and tech savvy consumers. For Phorus,
Barry worked with us to create a custom program that was not only cost-effective, but allowed us to tell our Wi-Fi whole home
audio story through many touch points. This included a keynote presentation, large exhibit space, contesting, and on-site social
media buzz. The best part, it wasn't just the press who were getting excited, the fans at the show literally "got geeked" about
our whole system. Sharon Graves, Vice President, Phorus, a subsidiary of DTS
getgeeked was a great event for Matter and Form. We were able to introduce our product to lots of media and influential
customers at one event. Barry is a joy to work with and found a great many ways (contests, speaking opps, social media
outreach, etc.) to extend the reach beyond the event itself. We can’t wait for 2015! Susan McLellan, President, Reimagine PR
(on behalf of Matter and Form)
getgeeked New York was a terrific event for us. Combining a true press event with a consumer showcase gave us the
opportunity to engage both key groups at one event. Both audiences - press and consumer - were better than we expected.
And the event's focus on creating opportunities for us to generate content and social media activity really sets it apart from
other events. Barry clearly has an understanding of the key challenges brands are facing today and has designed an event to
help us meet them. We're looking forward to participating in 2015. Kevin Oswald, Director, Global Marketing and
Communications, Boogie Board

enthusiasts. We’ll take care of everything and
you’ll be able to address the audience, demo
your product, and gather great feedback.

Leadership
getgeeked founder Barry Myers has spent the last decade helping brands engage the press and
turn passionate tech enthusiasts into brand advocates.
His first event, DigitalLife, attracted over 1000 press and 50,000 consumers in its final year. He
followed that up by joining forces with Peter Rojas and Ryan Block at gdgt.com where he created
the immensely successful gdgt Live Tour Series.
Following AOL’s acquisition of gdgt in early 2013, Barry decided it was time to start fresh and create
an event to help brands meet the challenges they face in today’s social media, consumer-driven
world.
With getgeeked, Barry has created an event where brands can cost-effectively engage both
communities of influencers that are critical to their success. He has integrated programs that ensure
participating companies are able to leverage their interactions with attendees to generate positive
social media buzz around their products and create compelling content they can share to reach
consumers far beyond the event itself.

already connected, chances are you have people in common!
