"When we decided to design a special day at ConneXions devoted solely to our marketing audience, we couldn't think of a more ideal keynote speaker than Seth Godin," said Matt Collins, chief marketing officer for Calix (News - Alert). "He's a visionary thinker and leader who's built an enormous following by pioneering many marketing concepts we now accept as standard best practices. For decades, he's educated marketers and entrepreneurs about how to pursue highly successful strategies, inspired them to think in innovative ways, and helped them embrace ideas that ensure long-term market viability and success. His messages are in perfect alignment with our goal to educate Calix customers on how they can win and retain subscribers in their markets-even against industry giants. We look forward to hearing him share his insights with our marketer audience on October 28."
