My First Blog Conference. Type A Mom.
Thursday, September 24, 2009 Posted by Felicia
At some point this evening I will be attending my very first blog conference, Type A Mom. I was blessed to receive the ticket for free from a great social media guru that won it at a Twestival! He is obviously not a mom and wanted me to have it after a conversation we had about me not being able to afford it. I have to use my conference money for keeping up my license as a counselor so there is little to no room for extras for blogging. Thank you again to Gary at G Social Media!So, after a full day of work I will drag myself over to my very first blogging conference ever. I'm sure I will not be looking perky and fabulous (probably will be carrying the H1N1 virus on my sleeve somewhere), but I'll be there! If you are coming I'd love to meet you (I promise to offer you some hand sanitizer)!
Does anyone out there have any tips for a newbie blog conference goer?

Have fun. Bring business cards. Don't be afraid to look at name badges more than once if you have to. Everyone has to.
You will have such a great time! See you there.

I've never attended a blog conference but I have been to writing conferences. The best part is meeting people in person that you've interacted with online, I think. Have fun!

Excited to see you again! So glad you were able to get a free ticket. There's no way you can live there and not attend, so I'm thrilled for you that everything worked out.

I have no tips because I had hoped this would be my first bloggy conference but didn't work out that way.
I am super excited for you and some day we will get to meet up at a conference I am sure!!!
Have a great time, can't wait to hear all about it!
