3rd Annual Connecting Brands & Digital Women

3. Introduction
In 2011, our second annual Connecting Brands with Digital Women Conference
welcomed a great group of Sponsors that made the conference a huge success. We
received remarkable support from our Sponsors, partners, and attendees.
When it comes to blogging conferences we have incredible engagement results. In
2011, we had over 97% share of voice (SOV), which means we
had more people tweet, blog, and post photos and videos about our event and our
Sponsors than any other women’s blogging event in Canada.
ShesConnected will be hosting our 3rd Annual Connecting Brands & Digital Women
Conference on October 19-20, 2012 in Toronto.
Here are the top three reasons you should sponsor the ShesConnected Conference
2012.
1. Increase your Brand’s social influence
2. Learn about social marketing and how it can help your Brand
3. Engage and interact one-on-one with some of Canada’s most influential
digital women, and learn how to create meaningful interactions with
them.
This conference offers the best opportunity for you to learn how to reach digital
women – the most influential and powerful consumers active in social space.
We have a select number of sponsorship positions available
for 2012. Learn more on why you shouldn’t miss out on this
opportunity: www.shesconnectedconference.com/2012

others that cater specifically to brands and agencies. ShesConnected is the ONLY
one that brings them all together in a unique and interactive forum.
It’s the ONLY conference with a mission of finding better ways for brands and
digital women to work together in order to socially amplify brand messaging.
Plus, it’s the ONLY conference that extends the conservation beyond the
conference dates, helping brands to build long-term relationships with the digital
women who make this possible.
