The CFDD’s 2010 Advisor Conference themed “New Age Marketing: What Worked In The Past Is No Longer Effective”, is an all business event designed to help retirement plan specialists adapt to new trends, increase activity and grow their business.  This year’s conference is expected to draw more than 1,000 retirement plan experts, including over 500 advisors.

Piccirillo is one of four panelists for the session entitled “The Intersection of Inbound Marketing, New Media and SALES” which will address social media strategy, blogging, compliance issues, and practical tools for managing online efforts.  Piccirillo is one of a handful of financial advisor bloggers embracing the use of social media for business.  He is a steering committee member and co-founder of the Social Media Club of Southwest Florida, and is a member of the Southwest Florida Regional Technology Partnership.  His blog deanpiccirillo.com was featured in the March 26, 2010 edition of The Internet & Marketing Report as an example of how the lines are blurring between blogs and traditional web sites.
