Facebook at the Avvocating Conference
With one week until the Avvocating Conference, we’d like to tell you about another speaker scheduled to address the 185 lawyers already confirmed to attend. Maz Sharafi is the Head of Local Advertising Sales and Partnerships at Facebook, responsible for developing Facebook’s local advertiser acquisition strategy.
Prior to joining Facebook, Maz worked at Google in Strategic Partnerships where he managed a portfolio of client relationships and a team of account managers on the Local Reseller team. Before Google, Maz spent multiple years in Investment Banking, Corporate Strategy and Business Development for Citigroup and in Strategic Planning and Business Development at American Express. Maz has his undergraduate degree in Systems Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania and a MBA from Wharton.
On Thursday, January 21 at 11:00AM, Maz will provide an insider’s view of the world’s largest social network that engages over 350 million users. He will explore Facebook’s many marketing tools – from simple profiles, groups and fan pages to its open developer platform and advertising solutions. Lawyers will learn how to best use Facebook to build a virtual referral and client base.
Maz joins an exciting lineup of speakers that includes Google, Microsoft, University of Washington, Nine by Blue, Justia and more.
There is still time to sign up for the Avvocating Conference – we hope to see you there!
