<\/p>For the last couple of days, I have attended a few of the Blogger Bash NYC 2016<\/a> sessions. For my \u201cFriday Favorites\u201d this week, I am sharing the highlights.\u00a0Blogger Bash offered some great meal sessions, pitching sessions, gifting suites and panels overall. \u00a0I was pretty intentional about my time there though. I went to learn from Dan and Rachel of Blogging Concentrated; to support my friend (and person who gifted me my ticket) Debbie Bookstaber of Bloganthropy and to connect with relevant brands and blogging friends. Fortunately, I was able to do so\u2026\n

Learn<\/h2>\n

Dan Morris and Rachel Martin shared the \u201cEscape Velocity\u201d training from their Blogging Concentrated<\/a> company. It centered around thinking about and preparing for your blogging exit strategy. This blog has always been a lifestyle business that has grown with my family and readers\u00a0and\u00a0I see myself blogging (if that\u2019s still a thing) into my senior years. \u00a0I won\u2019t be writing under \u201cMom in the City\u201d forever though, so I need to think about whom I will sell or hand the site off to in the future. Hmmm\u2026. Meanwhile, I was able to ask Dan for some specific advice during one of the breaks. After asking me a few questions to see which direction I wanted to take going forward (doubling my paid writing income), he \u00a0advised me to \u201cDouble your value. Double your rates.\u201d I can do that!<\/p>\n

Support<\/h2>\n

Debbie Bookstaber of Element Associates<\/a>\u00a0integrated marketing agency and Bloganthropy<\/a> is one of my favorite online friends. She is so <\/strong>passionate about people using their social media influence for philanthropic purposes. Ally Del Monte, the inspirational anti-bullying teen winner of last year\u2019s Bloganthropy\u00a0Award for social good, and her family\u00a0were highlighted at this year\u2019s Blogger Bash conference.<\/p>\n

Connect \u2013 Blogging Colleagues<\/h2>\n

Due to family and paid work commitments, I don\u2019t attend a lot of blogging-focused conferences. When I do, I try to catch up with as many of my blogging friends as possible. \u00a0I was able to chat (sometimes briefly, sometimes in-depth) with these great bloggers:\u00a0Carissa, Jessica<\/a>,\u00a0Mitch<\/a>, Nancy<\/a>, Onica<\/a> and Scherrie<\/a>. (Definitely check out their sites if you have not already done so!)<\/p>\n

Connect \u2013 Brands<\/h2>\n

While there were a wide variety of brands exhibiting at the conference, there were three that excited me.<\/p>\n

1. Office Depot<\/a>:<\/strong> I love notebooks, journals and such. I always have at least one planner notebook and one journal being used at all times. That is why I was excited to learn about Office Depot\u2019s TUL products. I loved it so much that I\u2019m going to do a separate video about it and see if I can schedule a \u201cBack to School for Moms\u201d themed giveaway around it. LOVE.<\/p>\n

2. Violet Love headbands:<\/strong>\u00a0I really don\u2019t like for my hair to be on my face when it\u2019s hot, so headbands are my best friends during the summer. Violet Love has a bunch of comfortable cute options. (The headbands are also PETA and Vegan approved.)<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Schmackary\u2019s Cookies<\/a>:<\/strong> I have had these New-York based cookies before but they are so<\/strong><\/span> good! I was disciplined and only had one cookie\u2026the Cereal Killer. Oh my\u2026<\/p>\n

In any event, I really enjoyed the sessions that I attended at Blogger Bash NYC 2016. I learned a lot, was reminded to use my social media presence to do good<\/a> and was able to connect with some wonderful friends and companies. If you attended Blogger Bash, I\u2019d love to hear your highlights too.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
