You’re probably a photographer. You may or may not consider yourself a techie. What’s the value in attending social media related events if social media isn’t your core competency? It’s a great opportunity to brush up on some supplementary marketing skills that will help you grow your business.

I recently attended WordCamp Seattle, a one-day and very affordable ($25) conference for bloggers in the Seattle area. While there, I recorded a few interviews with attendees who were from non-tech industries. I wanted to get their thoughts on the value of attending a blogging conference when their business didn’t revolve around tech.
