The digital and interactive marketing space moves fast and as both companies and individuals scramble to achieve and maintain a competitive advantage, it can be a challenge to find resources and likeminded individuals to help make that happen. Associations offer education, networking and in some cases, advocacy for members and sponsoring companies. The question is, where can you find interactive marketing associations are in your area?
We’ve listed regional Interactive Marketing Associations in the past and thought it would be time for an update. This post will be a work in progress, so please share in the comments the name and working URL of other interactive marketing associations that we’ve missed. We decided not to include groups and meetups that are primarily dedicated to SEO/SEM or social media. You can find a list of local Social Media Club chapters here and a list of Social Media Breakfast cities here. You can find abundant internet professional meetups here.
