O2 Media Founder to be a ‘Shark’ at Local Business Event for Women

Aug. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- August 23, 2011 - POMPANO BEACH, Fla. –O2 Media founder and Executive Producer, Mark Alfieri produces two national TV shows: ‘Designing Spaces’ and ‘The Balancing Act’ which both air on Lifetime Television.  There is no wonder why he was asked to be a guest panelist for an event that caters to women entrepreneurs.  The two-day event which includes speakers, panel discussions and a fashion show attracts women from all over the country.  

The underlying theme of the conference is that technology and online marketing are rapidly changing.  The woman who wants to stay on top of her game has no choice but to continue to educate herself in order to gain the top position in her niche.  Conference organizer Kellie Kuecha says, “Emerge is a conference unlike any other where you will take away simple and timely strategies delivered by top industry leaders that will work with you to help you dominate your niche, the internet and your brand category! As a result, you and your business will Emerge!”  

The part of the conference that Mr. Alfieri will be participating in is the ‘Think Tank’ panel discussion.  Roughly based on the concept of the ABC Show, ‘Shark Tank,’ he and other panel members will hear the attendees’ ideas for a new business or facts about an existing business.  Mr. Alfieri will then be providing ‘hard core advice’ on what it would take to get those businesses moving and thriving.    

“I started my first business in 1991 and I remember the biggest problems I faced was being financed and finding the right people.  I am happy to talk to these women and give them advice on how to avoid certain obstacles obstacles if I can forecast an issue based on what I hear.”

O2 Media is a national television production company and pioneer of the Branded Entertainment industry. “We often compare our TV shows to social media – it is very educational, entertaining, engaging and produced as a living-room style conversation between women and about women,” says Mr. Alfieri. “Meeting with women entrepreneurs is an important part of keeping my company up-to-date with what is going on outside of our studios and offices.”
