DrupalCon LA Periscope, BOFs, and Happy Hour
The team is out in Los Angeles this week for DrupalCon 2015! We had a successful day two with our Drupal interviews using Periscope. Be sure to follow our developer and resident startup evangelist, Kyle Taylor, on Twitter @kyletaylored.
Don't forget that we still have two Birds of a feather left, one today and one tomorrow!
GROWING YOUR CONTRACTOR/FREELANCE DRUPAL BUSINESS
Day: Wednesday, May 13, 2015
Time: 2:15pm-3:15pm
Room: 506 -Ashday
Transitioning from Drupal contract work to an agency requires solid web development skills. It also requires legal contracts, sales processes, knowledge of accounting and many, many more facets of business that most contractors take for granted. Join us as we discuss ways to overcome these challenges, as well as:
- ways to increase hourly rate
- value-based selling
- retaining customers to decrease downtime
- and much more!
Let's have an open discussion and learn ways to improve our businesses together.
DRUPAL ANALYTICS AND PERSONALIZATION
Day: Thursday, May 14, 2015
Time: 1:00pm-2:00pm
Room: 505 - Chromatic
We live in a data driven world where making decisions based upon quantifiable data can be the difference between success and failure. This BoF is intended to be an open discussion on gathering data from Drupal, integrating with analytics platforms and determining ways to improve how we measure results.
Discussion topics might include:
- How deeply Drupal can integrate with Google Analytics
- Where should data that we capture reside
- How can we collect data that is meaningful and that provides actionable insights
- How does Drupal 8 change the data collection/display landscape
If you're interested in analytics and looking for better ways to collect and organize valuable user data then this BoF is for you!
Lastly, we are hosting a happy hour event TODAY! Call it a pre-party to the bigger ones happening later tonight. Check out the details in the flyer below:
Hope to see everyone there!
