Welcome IttyBiz and Walmart!

February 23, 2009 by SOBCon Authors 2 Comments

This week was a great week for learning and a great week for SOBCon09!

It started with an email from Naomi Dunford, CEO of IttyBiz. The subject line was “Sponsorship info, please?” About 6 emails later we had a full-company sponsor deal that means a win for everyone:

  • funding to help the conference — allowing us to better serve participants (more on that below)
  • visibility for IttyBiz and direct sampling of new products to key influencers
  • Naomi’s participation — a chance for participants to find out how she built her business so quickly to a full sponsorship level.
  • about $700 worth of solid value for every attendee

The very next day, I enjoyed a call with John Andrews of Walmart. We extended the relationship we’d started at BlissDom09. In a short 9 or so minutes, we put together a package that included value in more directions than first meets the eye.

  • funding to help the conference — allowing us to better serve participants (more on that below)
  • visibility for Walmart
  • John’s participation — a chance for participants to find out how Walmart is connecting their vendors with their blogger evangelists.
  • and some other surprises

Because They Invested in Us We Can Invest MORE in YOU!

Thanks! Naomi and John!!

    Wow, this sounds so great.
    More and more things that gives me the feeling that I ‘need’ to come.
    Now, I just need to find my sponsor 🙂
