The 3-minute Media Mingle was created to bring brand professionals and bloggers together in a fun, relaxing, risk-free setting. The 3-minute Media Mingle mixer gives you a chance to meet one-on-one with great brand and media professionals in your area. Spend those three minutes pitching your client's product, discussing your passion for blogging, or just connecting with new, and old friends. When the three minutes are up, mingle over to the next media professional ... and so on.
We can’t wait to see all of our Fashionistas, Blogger Ballers, and Laptop Legends.

One of the most important strategies to achieve a constant and relevant flow of traffic is to have a well-optimized site with a solid SEO (search engine optimization) practice. While the basics are the same no matter which language your site is written, there are specific tips that apply to sites in Spanish and/or bilingual being searched through English language search engines.
Yolanda and Denisse have built a solid business through their Spanish-language blogs and will be sharing their best practices to a well-optimized site in Spanish or both English and Spanish. They will delve into the realms of social media in Spanish as well.
Three of the most important network leaders in the Latina social media space and a brand specialist will address the issue of if there is really a need to have Latino-specific groups and sponsored campaigns. Despite being mainstream, at the same time the Latino culture infuses the conversations, social interactions and the ways Latinas connect with each other on and off line. Marketers are looking for Latina bloggers to address their specific audience through ways that are authentic and engaging. Bloggers will learn exactly what these brands look for in them that sets them apart, as well as to how to position themselves within a multicultural environment.
