Preparations of Epic Proportions

Have you heard the news?


I'm Going to the CBC!




According to their website, the following individuals should attend CBC:


* The person who knows nothing about blogging, but wants to learn. By the end of the conference they will not only know HOW to start a blog, but how to design it, photograph for it and have inspiring posts.

* The person who wants to take their writing or photography to the next level but just does not know how. This conference has some of the best teachers in the industry available to help you learn the basics all the way to "the real deal".

* The woman who feels she is "just a mommy blogger". There is no such thing as "just" a mommy. This conference will offer her opportunities to see that her life has power as a mommy blogger.

* The person who wants to learn more about design, programming, and the importance of backing up your blog.

* The person who has a small business and wants to get different ideas on how to market better using social media. CBC'10 has something for everyone!



I know, you may be thinking: "Jessica, you're already fantastic at blogging, writing, photography, AND social networking, not to mention you're not a mommy. Why in the world would you need to attend CBC?"



Well, to answer your brilliantly insightful question, CBC is a killer opportunity to market myself to my target demographic. (whew, is it just me, or am I using big words today?)

CBC also happens to fall the weekend of my birthday, so we're making it into quite the affair. My best friends Tylynn (left) and Lacey (right) are both forking out $155 for tickets and we're all taking a road trip up to Sandy, UT just for CBC.



I did everything within my power to score a free ticket, but to no avail. (I'm not bitter or anything. Actually, I am. Very. I guess I'm just not "in" with the right people.) So, with an estimated investment of $250ish per member of my posse, you can bet your bottom that I'm pulling out all the marketing stops I can while I'm there.



My marketing preparations include:


1. Business cards.

2. Brochures.

3. T-shirts for me and my ultra-cool groupies.




...and last but not least...


A brand new look for A Blog to Brag About.

Be watching for my next post where I'll spill the deets!
(that is slang for "details," which I just invented.)
