Ed Skimin, Co-owner Emerge Inc., Co-founder LorainCounty.com

New York Times best selling author Chris Brogan.
September 29, 2009 -- Chris Brogan, social media rock star and co-author of the New York Times best seller Trust Agents: Using the Web to Build Influence, Improve Reputation, and Earn Trust (amazon) has been added the to Credibility Conversation (Website | Profile) line-up. Hosted by Emerge Inc. (Website | Profile) and LorainCounty.com (Website | Profile), the Credibility Conversation, is a 3-part speakers series focused on building personal and business value through social media.

Chris is a ten year veteran of using social media to build digital relationships for businesses, organizations, and individuals and his blog ChrisBrogan.com is in the top 5 of AdAge Power 150, a daily ranking of marketing blogs and in the top 100 on Technorati. Chris also keynotes major Internet Conferences around the Country.

"We are very excited to have such a high-profile innovator and thought leader coming to Lorain County," said Ed Skimin, one of the organizers of the Credibility Conversation.

Chris will anchor the speakers series, presenting on January 13. Each event is on the second Wednesday of the month from 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. at Lorain County Community College (Website | Profile). The speakers for each event:

November 11 - Lewis Howes, author of LinkedWorking: Generating Success on the World’s Largest Professional Networking Website and Shawn Morton, Director of Social Media at Nationwide Insurance

December 9 - Tom Wanek, author of Currencies that Buy Credibility: Methods to win your customers trust

January 13 - Chris Brogan, social media rock star and co-author of the New York Times best seller Trust Agents

An Oxford College of Marketing review of Chris Brogan's book Trust Agents says, "...it’s all about what every marketer needs to know about building influence and reputation in business – both on-line as well as off-line. Chris and Julian wrote this book to explain where we are today with business and how new media is changing ways we connect with people, we establish and develop relationships and how we (not) harvest them when it comes to our own business goals."
