Discover 2 Skills to increase revenue in 6 Weeks Without ANY Additional Funding, Zero “Inside Connections” And No Sales Calls.
Our mystery guest speaker (we’ll call him Mr. X for now) has helped countless underground startups make tens of millions of dollars with NO funding… and he’s going to walk you through how you could double the profitability of your business within the next 60 to 90 days.
Join us on October 5th for the best online marketing event at Austin Startup Week!
In honor of Austin Startup Week, we'll also be holding an Online Marketing Job Networking Happy Hour the night of the meetup brought to you by WP Engine. If you're looking for a job or looking to hire someone in online marketing don't miss this event :)
More about the presentation....
Little did you know, there's a secret world of Internet Marketing where products are launched and promoted in just a few weeks and can generate tens of millions of dollars.
The high-paced world of "IM" is like a mad scientist's laboratory of direct response marketing strategies and techniques.
And the online products promoted by these “underground startups” are the perfect analog for the work you do in the funded startup space, as well as their marketing departments large and small.
As for “Mr. X”... Well, our speaker is the infamous and insanely smart David Gonzalez.
David is one of the country's leading thought leaders in the Digital Marketing space and he'll be sharing VIP access to the secrets used by this elite group of online marketers.
Here are the highlights of what he’ll reveal:
* How to 4x your revenue using the existing web traffic you’re already getting.
* How to maximize the revenue from every single person opting in to your newsletter… and if you don’t yet have a newsletter, here’s why you need one and how to get started.
* The secret key to growth that lets you go toe-to-toe with the Fortune 500 giants and increase your revenue on demand.
* The little known business skill that’s actually the most powerful thing for any business or startup owner to learn. (hint: it might have something to do with robotics)
If you're ready to accelerate your marketing efforts using techniques from the top-secret world of Internet Marketing, don't miss this meetup.
RSVP NOW! Spots will fill up fast because of Austin Startup Week.
-------------------
Job Networking Happy Hour: If you're looking for a job in online marketing or if you're looking to hire, join us for the happy hour following the speaker's presentation for a great opportunity to make meaningful connections that will improve your business or your career.

The trouble with having a big toolbox is that some of the tools get used all the time, and they stay on the top of the pile. But sometimes the perfect tool for the job is the one hiding in the bottom corner of the toolbox. The same is true of the Ruby core. Tonight we'll dump the toolbox onto the table and rummage around. We'll look at some very useful methods in Array, Hash, IO, Enum, and elsewhere -- methods that may not be used very often and may be unknown or forgotten.
Hal Fulton has two degrees in computer science and more years of experience than he will admit to. He has used Ruby since 1999 and is the author of _TheRuby Way_. He is obsessively interested in way too many things, including music, art, space travel, theater, and torturing people with bad puns. He is an Austinite currently living in exile in Fort Worth, and has an imaginary friend named Nola Stowe.
More about the AustinRB Meetup Group
This is a group devoted to Ruby, a great language used for things beyond rails. We talk about Sinatra, Deep dives into the workings of Ruby, other things we find interesting as Rubyists and practicing Ruby by doing katas in the second half of every meeting.

The technology revolution is moving into space. Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Paul Allen and other tech billionaires are investing in projects to open the frontier to business and settlement. By next year the first non-government human space flight operations will begin, meanwhile a dozen or more companies are almost ready to fly or have begun commercial space activities.
Companies are also raising millions to mine the Moon and harvest asteroid resources, with the first missions planned within five years. New technologies, processes, and most importantly a new attitude has taken the old space program and – rather than killing it as some have proclaimed – is building on its amazing legacy to throw open the airlock to space.
So how do we redefine our human space activities in light of a possible new partnership between governments and the people? Why Must our governments not just encourage this to happen, but help Make it happen? What does any of this have to do with a spiritual quest to explore the Universe and find the meaning of life? Why is this possibly the most important human activity of all? Why is it happening now?
What does this have to do with you?
