I received a discounted ticket to SoFabU for sharing this information with you. All opinions are my own.
You might have noticed the ‘I ♥️ SoFab’ button in my sidebar. Or maybe the Walmart Family Mobile Ambassador one. Perhaps you’ve enjoyed some of my latest posts including the Kool-Aid Easy Mix or Coca-Cola Black Forest Brownies I made. Well all of those are made possible by a blog network called Social Fabric.
I have been a part of Social Fabric for a long time. Years actually. A lot of the improvements you have seen to my blog have been because of feedback I’ve received as part of their community. I’ve had a chance to meet many of their staff in person, and it’s thrilling when you attend a conference with many people, but they know your face and call you by name. It really is a network like no other in the industry.
That’s why I’m excited to share with you that I’m attending SoFabU on the Road this year. They’ve been to many different cities already but will be right here in the Dallas area on May 30th. Conferences like these, where bloggers get a chance to learn and network, are made possible by sponsors, and the national sponsors of SoFabU on the Road are Johnny Rockets, Müller, Kraft and iBlog.
SoFabU on the Road in Dallas will take place at the Gaylord Texan, which is in Grapevine, TX not far from Dallas.
The speaker is Randi Dukes, the founder and creator of Dukes and Duchesses, a craft and DIY blog that has grown from a hobby into a business over the last few years. Randi loves creating sponsored content for companies and has worked with many large brands including Better Homes and Gardens, Michaels, and The Home Depot. Randi is passionate about using social media to promote and monetize her site and has developed strategies that have brought consistent growth in her social media platforms and steady, increasing traffic to her site. She has over half a million combined followers on her various social media channels. Randi has previously spoken at Haven Conference and loves sharing with and encouraging other bloggers. Regularly featured on sites such as Today, Country Living, and Buzzfeed, Randi enjoys inspiring people with simple seasonal and everyday projects. Randi lives in Dallas with her husband, five kids, and a very dirty dog.
