Happy Monday, peeps!  You may have noticed that beautifully colorful banner ad over on my sidebar that will take you to the SheStreams info page when you click it.  I found out about this conference about two months ago and knew I wanted to attend.  When I found out who was behind it, I wanted to go even more.

Maria Bailey is one of my most favorite blogging/social media experts ever since I had the pleasure of working with her and her team at BSM Media a few years ago.  Since then, I've been able to do other projects and reviews, and giveaways with them too. 

Having just come back home yesterday from my fabulous trip to Chicago for the Midwest Moms Media conference, I am already so excited at the prospect of attending SheStreams.  (My wrap-up post of my weekend is coming soon!)  So much so in fact, that I was telling many of the bloggers this past weekend about it and sharing my love for Maria Bailey and her team!   Why bother to share how excited I am about it?  Well, last week I discovered that Maxine Clark, Chief Executive Bear of Build-a-Bear Workshop, is not only going to be in attendance, but is the special guest speaker!!  Oh, how I'd LOVE to hear Maxine speak again!

Many of you know how fond I am of Maxine & Build-a-Bear!  By far, my favorite brand on the social media scene.  I loved having the opportunity to learn about brand-building from them last summer during the workshop they hosted.

Fast-forward to today.  I received an email from SheStreams that they are giving away a full conference pass to someone!  They will select one winner from all entries received and all that's needed to enter is to simply {and proudly} place one of the conference badges on your blog or website.  Hmm, well I can do THAT!

So, go ahead. Enjoy looking at it.  Then click it.  Then get one for your blog so YOU can maybe win!  You won't regret it, I promise.  I am so hoping I can make it to the conference this fall.  It would make my year.  (Ahem, sponsors?  If you're out there, let's connect and see if we'd be a good match!)

Make it a great week, everyone!
