Grow that blog! Round dos!

One night a couple of weeks ago I put on my trusty mint sweater that makes me look like a real teacher and a half, styled my hair to look just like a scarecrow and was off for an hour of stimulating blog conversation.

Ten girls all gathered around a table talking twitter, pinterest, growth strategies, and everything bloggy that you can never talk about with real people because they just straight up think you be cray!

I stole all these pictures from Bella just like a thief in the night.  Credit goes to her.

I told you the hair looks like a scarecrow.  It's an embarrassment!

And if someone would have told me those pants made my thighs look that fat I wouldn't have spent 80 bones on them.  Curse you, Express!

In all seriousness, I had the time of my life at this event.  I came home feeling energized, inspired, and full of great ideas to use for my blog.  Somehow my life has gotten to the point where spending hours talking about blogs and drinking diet coke has become my idea of perfection.  Don't ask, people.

We all had so much fun that we decided to do it again.  Hey!  Why not?  Let's make this a monthly thing, shall we?!?

And so, we announce...

Our second blogging roundtable event!  The topic will differ but the stimulating conversation will be guaranteed.

Seven o'clock in the evening

In a public Provo, UT location to be disclosed upon booking.

Here are some questions to get you thinking before our discussion and let you know the direction we'll start in

• How and when should you initially start offering advertisements on your blog?
• How do you know when and if sponsoring is right for you and your blog?
• What should you look for when sponsoring a blog?
• What do brands look for in bloggers?
• How can you set yourself apart from other advertising options?

Bloggers of all degrees/levels/commitments welcome - last month we had a range and it made for insightful conversation.  I know it is scary to show up at a blogging thing all by yourself to meet random girls you have only seen online.  But I promise within minutes we're all friends and laughing away.  You won't regret it.   I would have killed for something like this in my first months of blogging.  Even now, it is a very valuable resource to me.  Also, I know this title sounds somewhat threatening.  Basically we're just finding ways that you can grow your blog by working with other bloggers.  You know, a partnership.  In a total non sexual/ blogging kind of way.

Interested? Jump on board already! $10 reserves your seat.  Email me at thelifeofbon@gmail.com asap because spots be flying like flipping pancakes.  I so want to meet you!

P.S.  Non Utah bloggers... would you be interested in an online version of this sort of thing?  Last month there were some that mentioned so, I'm trying to get a feel of how great the interest really is.  Also, if you could ask any "blog question" to blogging buddies, what would it be?
