This year for the first time, the Bloggers Brunch will kick off with a panel presentation titled, “What Does a Mommy Blogger Want?” The panel will feature leading mom bloggers who will discuss best practices for reaching moms through social media. They will share their insights and answer questions about how companies can work with this target market most effectively. They will also discuss how the “momosphere” has changed, current trends, and issues that impact mom bloggers’ interaction with the corporate world today.

The morning presentation will be followed by a noon brunch at which sponsors exhibit their products to up to 50 mom bloggers, for consideration in time for holiday reviews. The exhibit area will be low-key and provide the ideal opportunity to create a relationship with blogger guests.

Last year’s Bloggers Brunch event was a huge success. Please visit here for a description, photos and video. For details on the 2009 event, to register for the panel presentation or for sponsorship, visit here.
