I am writing this post in exchange for a discounted conference ticket; however, all opinions are mine and mine alone. #SoFabUOTR #cbias
Last year I went to my first SoFab get together in Cincinnati. During this event I met and was impressed with Nate Engels the owner and writer of Wannabite.com. I was really engaged and impressed by his presentation and learned some tips and tricks for my blog that I use every single day. When I heard that we was going to be back for the SoFabU on the Road event in Cincinnati, I knew that I had to go.
It is almost that time. Next weekend my blogging BBF Kait and I will be headed on the road for some well deserved quality bonding time. Here is what we have in store for us:

Why Should You Attend?
Learn from great speakers!
Joe Robb is a thoughtful communicator with a diverse background in marketing strategy, pedagogy, digital media, SEO, editing and writing. He is the Digital Marketing Director at SparkPeople.com, a multi-platform media and technology company with leading health, fitness and food websites and mobile apps. Attendees will walk away with a solid understanding of how to pair analytics data (Google, Twitter, Pinterest, and Facebook) with common, free publishing tools to grow their audience with data-driven processes. With the tactics provided, you will increase your site traffic without dramatically increasing the amount of time you currently dedicate to social media.
Improve your blogging with up-close and personal demonstrations from the best!
Nate Engels will walk through creating a custom recipe around a brand’s product and how he tells a story around the recipe that will draw the reader into the emotional tie to the brand and blog post. From styling the plate, to the props, lighting and background, we’ll learn how to create a visual gourmet image. He’ll show how he takes beautiful photos (even without natural light) and manipulates the images to spotlight the food. We’ll form groups where we will use props and creativity to produce photos on the spot. Then Nate will share how to make so-so photos into WOW! Shareable images through simple techniques and tools like Picmonkey.
Meet other bloggers and brands!
We’ll also have networking, brands and other learning opportunities (check out the agenda on the SoFabUOTR website!)
I want to give a shout out and a huge thank you for the national sponsors who have made this event possible:
Johnny Rockets, Müller, Kraft and iBl
