It’s the Great Pumpkin, Search Marketers!

Apple picking and liquor treating aside, October can be a strange and spooky month. At our San Francisco office, while it seems the rest of the world is settling into autumn, we always experience a brief but cruel heat wave in October.

Luckily, October also means we get to bring Marin to the rest of the world and cool our heels a bit before the holidays. Where are we going? Where have we been? Maybe your college philosophy professor wasn't able to give a proper answer to those questions, but I absolutely can.

Earlier this week we exhibited at Pubcon Vegas. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and said hello. It was a fantastic show and it was so wonderful to meet you all. We hope you made good use of our Marin schwag: pins, pens, stress balls, and chapstick sturdy enough not to melt in the heat of Tao’s VIP section.

In the run-up to Halloween, you can catch Marin at two more major events.

Find us at Seattle Interactive on October 29th and 30th. We’ll be at Booth #307 both days and our VP of Marketing, Matt Lawson, will be speaking about the latest search marketing and social media trends, many of which can be found in our latest whitepaper.

Marin will also be exhibiting, for the first time, at ad:tech Tokyo! Find us there October 30th and 31st at Booth #223.

In the run-up to ad:tech Tokyo and the official launch of our quickly growing Japan office, this gaijin has been dutifully re-reading her Battle Royale and Death Note manga. She has also been practicing her forlorn stare, in her best attempt to float through Tokyo a la Scarlett Johansson in Lost in Translation.

If this fact isn't enough reason for you to get to Tokyo at warp speed, you should know that Marin will also be celebrating the recent launch of our Tokyo office with a party on the evening of October 30th at La Mere Poulard/Miraculeuse in the Tokyo International Forum. Any and all ad:tech attendees are cordially invited and Ed Stevenson, Marin Software’s Managing Director, EMEA & APAC, will have a welcome speech that you’re sure to enjoy.
