The NAB Small Business Summit was last week and it was a bit of a revelation! After missing the lunch (long story!) on Tuesday I turned up to see Rebecca Derrington from SourceBottle facilitate a panel discussion about ‘How to get the media to take notice of your Business’. Other panelists were Warwick Ponder – Corporate Communications Manager, EFTPOS, Jessica Gardner – Editor, Enterprise section Australian Financial Review, and Oliver Milman – Editor, Startup Smart.
Talk about being in the right place at the right time! The final panelist had been unable to make it and I was invited to take his place. Not being the shy and retiring type, I readily agreed and 3 minutes later we got started.
