Conference Recap Day 2

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

It’s Wednesday and for the most part we have the day to pick up our registration papers, set up the booth, network and most importantly hit the pool.  We are in Orlando after all. 

The booth looks amazing; we will share photos as soon as we download them, but I am so proud of it and what we have accomplished.  We are starting to visit with organizers from all the USA and Canada.  I do hope to meet a few organizers from Australia and Asia.  I remember two years ago meeting an organizer from Japan; that was so cool.

Now, we are off to the Tweet Up to meet with other organizers who use Twitter.  Also, did you see our homepage?  The Social Media TeleSummit registration went live today.  WHOOOO HOOOO!

Conference Recap Day #1

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

It’s Tuesday and I am in route to Orlando with my very good friend Debbie Rosemont of Simply Placed. We actually met five years ago at the San Diego NAPO Conference and instantly became friends. We have travelled and roomed together at conference ever since.

We are on the plane and both working, collaborting and sharing ideas. It’s awesome to have someone to bounce ideas off of. We land in 3 hours and will meet Angela. The three of us have been accountability partners for years now. It’s amazing to have someone to be accountable to. We meet, via conference call once per month. We report on our goals, share an accomplishment and a challenge. We all provide feedback and support to each other and it’s become a call I look forward to each month.

Back to working with Debbie. We are brainstorming blog and newsletter topics.  I can’t wait to feel the hot weather!
