LMA-LA Summer 2013 Newsletter

A Note from the President...
Happy Fourth of July!
As we mark the halfway point of 2013, I’d like to remind you of a few upcoming events that you won’t want to miss!
Thursday, July 25th – celebrate the long, bright days of summer at our social event, held on the Lobby Court Patio at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Century City. This event (free for members) will incorporate an entertaining (and purely voluntary) charity component to help raise money for the LA Food Bank. Invitation coming soon!
Thursday, August 22nd – join us for our monthly program: “It’s Not Magic, It’s Persuasion – Getting Buy-In for Your Ideas”. Stay tuned for additional details and look for the invitation in your inbox. Invitation coming soon!
Wednesday, September 25th – our annual Continuing Marketing Education (CME) event will take place at the Beverly Hills Hotel. This year’s program will carry-on last year’s engaging TED Talks format, delivering diverse speakers who will present 15-minute segments on a number of topics. Stay tuned for more information.
If you happened to miss our May panel discussion on Directories, Rankings and Accolades, a fantastic recap of the topics covered and the best practices revealed is available on our site, written by Amy Spach of AS Written Communications. This is a "must-read" for those of us in the midst of "Chambers season," so I encourage you to read it here.
All the best,
Justin Portaz
2013 Los Angeles Chapter President
