Naples, FL June 24, 2008 -- While marketing budgets may be squeezed, Web 2.0 and rich media continue to be at the forefront of aggressive spending increases. In fact, over 50% of marketers are intending to make these increases, according to MarketingProfs' report, 'B-to-B Marketing in 2008.' In response to the overwhelming demand from marketing professionals to ensure those dollars are well spent, Neighborhood America is launching a new 'Coffee & Clarity' series over the summer.

"While marketers understand the need to engage consumers, we see a lot of confusion in the marketplace," said Dan Miller, Executive Vice President of Neighborhood America. "Our customers express a need for this type of seminar - one that will enable them to feel confident that they're going to be able to deliver results from their community-building efforts. We're pleased to offer this breakfast series to help participants learn from our experience: what works, and what doesn't."

The 'Coffee & Clarity' breakfast seminars will kick off in Boston on July 28, and will continue into Atlanta and New York City in August and September, respectively. To learn more or to register for an upcoming event, visit http://www.neighborhoodamerica.com/events.
