Testimonials
We’d like to share a few sweet senAments from what our previous aFendees had to say about their brand relaAonships at Blogalicious
23 Blogalicious Sponsorship Deck 2015
“They connected us to major brands… The operaAve word here is “major”. There’s nothing worse than going to a conference that is supposed to connect your to major brands and being disappointed by the opAons. When I say major brands I mean MAJOR brands… and not a room full of independent Mary Kay reps that want to connect with you to write about her 2-‐week old business.” (The Mane Source)
“MyBrownBaby was so proud to partner with McDonald’s at the Be Blogalicious 2012 conference, where I was charged with spreading the word about simple steps we moms can take to make healthier choices.” (My Brown Baby)
“I knew Blogalicious was going to be something special when I learned the conference size soon aper aFending BlogHer (approximately 300 vs. BlogHer’s 5,000)” (Harlem LoveBirds)
“Gain Fresh threw an AMAZING party for Blogalicious in which DOUGIE FRESH came out and hosted.” (The Curvy Fashionista)
“So, McDonalds? Soooo not the boring type. When it came down to party on the first night? THEY HELD NOTHING BACK!” (The Curvy Fashionista)
“We were greeted by the PR team and challenged to create our own Ross looks with the three mannequins in the room. OOH challenge!! I’m so in. Lucky for me, the Ross team liked my look so much, I won a $25 gip card to Ross!” (Chris Lam)
“Yes, it’s an investment. Each year, Lamar and I walk away from the conference with: a wealth of informaAon that is going to help us take our business and our brand to the next level, many new contacts of brands and bloggers that we plan to collaborate with, and most importantly a sense of relaxaAon as Blogalicious is just plain fun… We look at the speakers and the brands that will be there… Then, we make a plan of aFack. Ronnie will go here; Lamar will go there; And let’s make sure we talk to this person/brand. That’s right folks…we have a strategy.” (Black And Married with Kids)
