Highlights and Takeaways from Conversion Conference Fort Lauderdale

Dozens of digital marketers and certified conversion geeks gathered in Fort Lauderdale last week for the first ever Conversion Conference in Florida.

As in our previous shows in San Francisco and Chicago this year, the Florida conference was filled with energy and excitement by ConvCon speakers who did no-holds barred presentations and attendees who were eager to learn and share their ideas with each other.

If you couldn’t make it to the show, then it’s your lucky day ‘coz we brought back some rays of sunlight from our short stay at the Sunshine state. Here’s a quick rundown on the highlights of Conversion Conference East Fort Lauderdale:

Keynote presentations – Our three keynote presenters, Conversion Conference chair Tim Ash, the Conversion Scientist Brian Massey, and the Brain Lady Susan Weinschenk didn’t disappoint with their informative and entertaining sessions. Attendees especially liked the emphasis placed by keynote speakers on persuasion strategies grounded on the principles of neuroscience, human behavior, and psychology.

Breakout sessions – While all of the sessions were amazing, there were some that were simply unforgettable. Some speakers emerged as strong crowd favorites due to their sheer brilliance and killer sense of humor. These speakers’ sessions literally lit up the #convcon twitter stream with glowing tweets from attendees. (Hint: You can check out the #convcon tweet stream on Twitter to know which speakers gained lots of new fans).

Live from ConvCon – Speaker Dennis van der Heijden conducted a live webinar with Brian Massey during the conference, allowing those who missed the event an opportunity to participate.
