Hello everyone - it's Friiiiidddaaayyyy and you know what that means - it's time to wrap up the week. Additionally, I am going to start introducing you to members of the events team so when you see us in LA or Austin, you are sure to say hi!
We'll start with #BlogHer16.
This week Jennifer wrote a great post about transferring your #BlogHer16 ticket if you have come to realize you won't be with us this summer, which of course, would be a huge bummer. She's created a simple form that you complete and voila, transfer is complete. Also, a reminder...if you ever have any questions about your registration, you can email us at registration@sheknows.com and we'll get back to you with answers.
I also want to share some exciting speaker news. As you know, we endeavor to provide you with the most diverse conference experience possible. From locations to content to speakers, we want all sides of a conversation to be heard and shared. To that end, once again, our speakers are as diverse as ever and they are ready to share their unique perspectives and engage you in some fabulous conversation. Wander over to our speakers' page and check out the amazing group of people ready to have the kind of conversation you expect at a #BlogHer conference.
We've also been busy filling in the agenda, so now is the time to start planning your days with us in Los Angeles. Remember, you don't have to sign up for any sessions - just show up, have a seat and soak in the information. And, if a session isn't for you..we always say, "let your feet be the judge" and head on to another session.
Oh! Don't forget to watch BlogHer.com for a BIG announcement on Monday - really, it's big!
On to #BlogHerFood16.
This week Melisa wrote a post about securing your hotel room in Austin. It may seem a bit early to be thinking about this, but oddly enough it's not. We have a finite number of rooms at the conference rate and we want to make sure you enjoy our rate before the block is full. Melisa details some of the fabulous features of the Hilton Austin and the surrounding area...book now and coast into the summer without any cares (okay that might be a little over the top, but you get me).
Now, it's my pleasure to have a little fun here these next few weeks and introduce you to members of the awesome Events Team. This week we will start with Jennifer Evers.
Jennifer has been a part of the events team for about a year when she started recruiting for our sponsored special events and then moved on to becoming our Logistics Manager. She is a mom of three daughters, lives in the Chicago area and has been part of this amazing community called BlogHer for 5+ years. She is an asset to our team and you will find her at registration during the conference, so make sure to say hi when you arrive.
That's it for this week, until next time...
Lori Luna
general manager, events
