How We Show Our Love for Our Attendees

At the end of every business day, before I shut down my computer, I log into the back end of RegOnline to see who has registered for the Blog Business Summit that day. I eagerly peruse names and companies, and take note of which days people will be attending. When people e-mail me their bios and photos for our attendees page, I give a little squeal of delight.

Yes, we love your money. It keeps us in business. We’re not going to deny that. But our love for you guys is not completely motivated by dollars and cents. I LOVE blogging. I love everything about social media and how it enables better communication and more honest dialogue. It’s the future and I’m proud to be involved.

When I see that there are real, brilliant, hardworking people like you out there who want to make blogging work for your business, it reminds me that what I do for a living matters to people. I’m actually making an impact on the world. Now that’s professional satisfaction.

To show our appreciation, we want to take good care of you. That’s why we’re working with our sponsors to show you a good time while you’re in Seattle.

On the evening of Wednesday, October 25 between 5:00pm-7:00pm our sponsor Getty Images will be hosting a happy hour at Nectar Lounge. Nectar Lounge gives a true taste of the Emerald City, serving up the Pacific Northwest’s favorite microbrews in Fremont, Seattle’s funkiest enclave and local hot spot. Bring your Blog Business Summit badge (or a printout of the attendee e-mail you recieved) and meet on the mezzanine for a free drink on Getty Images.

The Nectar Lounge is located at 412 N. 36th St in Seattle and can be reached at (206)-632-2020.

On Thursday night after the conference, our attendees and speakers will all join together for delicious hosted drinks and hors d’oeuvres at the conference center.

We’ve also worked to convene a number of topic tables during the conference lunch break. This is to give you the opportunity to chat with our experts and speakers in a more intimate environment, and to ask follow-up questions. You can vote for your favorite topics here.

Finally, we’re committed to outstanding service. If you have any issues or problems that you’d like to address with me before the conference, you’re welcome to e-mail me at teresa [at] blogbusinesssummit [dot] com, or to call me at (425)-889-8509. Please keep in mind that this is my home number (I work from my house) so try to limit your calls to the hours of 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Pacific Time.
