Creative Income would like to congratulate the winner of the SNAP! Conference ticket giveaway: Erika Senneff! We can’t wait to see you in Salt Lake City!
As creative professionals, it’s not only important to keep creating, it’s important to network. Learning how to network can be tricky, but thankfully the internet is overflowing with helpful networking tips and tricks. Another great way to make useful contacts is seeking out blogger conferences and places where like-minded, creative professionals get together to swap stories, tricks of the trade and business cards. That’s where shows like the SNAP! Social Media Conference comes in! If you haven’t heard of SNAP! before, get excited, because it’s one of the hottest blogger events of the year. For three days (this year from April 23-25), bloggers who love to create, both in the kitchen and in the craft room, come together to take sessions, share experiences and most importantly, learn. Held in the beautiful Salt Lake City, UT, this conference offers the perfect opportunity for building your network of creative connections. As an added bonus, you’ll also get to enjoy the sites of the beautiful, mountainous terrain of Salt Lake City. So to summarize, you’ll get to have fun, learn a lot about social media and blogging and get to enjoy yourself while you’re at it? Not a bad deal, right?
Aside from connecting with professionals that likely have the same goals as you do, there are tons of big-name sponsors to rub elbows with. From Tulip to Scotch to Elmers, you’ll be able to make important contacts with large companies that will only help you grow professionally. To see the complete list of SNAP! Social Media Conference sponsors visit their site.

The possibilities! So much to learn about blogging, business, products, creating ideas, branching out, wonderful people to meet, relationships to develop. This is a lifetime opportunity for any one of us.

I really need s vacation and to go to Snap and combine that vacation with learning and networking would be awesome. I started making my hats and ceramics after a brain tumor surgery as part of my self imposed art therapy. I would hope that at Snap that I would learn to price, and market my work. I’m always selling my stuff too cheap. I have been getting a lot of positive feed back from my friends and instructors, so I know there’s something in my work that should sell.
I’m just getting started in this business, and this would be great learning opportunity for me.
Hope to meet unique crafters, who like me can exchange ideas and learn new concepts and new friends.
Trade ideas and sources. Thank you for this opportunity.

I would very much appreciate the opportunity to win a ticket to attend SNAP. I want to create a blog. However, I do not know enough to begin a blog, and what I do know, I could be dangerous! HAHA! I am a three time cancer survivor and I am no longer able to work do to the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. I am a crafter and I love to cook and create recipes. Now that I am no longer an 8-5 employee, I do not have the friends and interaction that I used to enjoy. I would love to meet new friends and particularly those that share the same passion. Thank you for this opportunity. Regards.
I would love to attend SNAP to learn about blogging and how it can help with starting a web presence.

I’ve never heard of SNAP, but I’m sure it would inspire me to become excited about my blog again. To see and hear what others do, their successes and failures – it would be a wake-up call that will help increase my presence on the internet. Wish I could afford the $ to go, but maybe I’ll get lucky and win!
If I won a ticket to SNAP I would first let out a big WHOO HOO! Then, while I was at SNAP I would network like crazy and try to learn everything I could about creating great content for my site, FabYOUlouslife.com while also learning about trends in social media and marketing. I would have a BLAST and would be excited to share my experience with all of my readers!
If I was the lucky winner, I’d love to learn more about working with brands. I’ve approached many over this last year and clearly my approach isn’t working because I’ve not heard back from a single person I’ve pitched.
Maybe its my ideas? My offer? My email isn’t getting through to the right person?
Having an opportunity to meet with brands face to face and actually ask them what they are looking for in a blogger/brand relationship would be so valuable in taking my earnings to the next level.
Thanks so much for the giveaway.
I am new to this…but I would love an opportunity to attend SNAP and learn as much as possible!
If I were to go I would love to learn from real people if it is all worth it. I love to create, blog, and mingle; but I struggle with balance and I want to know if others are really able to make it work and are happy doing it.
If I won, I’d enjoy learning from others and become a better blogger.
Well – I’m just starting out in blogging for my creative business. I hope to learn lots of constructive new ideas to help build a solid internet presence, as well as collect advice about thriving online in this industry.
I would love to learn how to blog about my art, I am an inspiring photographer and Sketch Artist. I want to connect with other art bloggers and have fun meeting new friends.
I posted comment on facebook timeline but here goes…If I won I would listen to crafters tell what keeps them motivated, ask about when a “gift”seems to become an advertsment of your talent & not “from the heart” i.e.”this isn’t your BEST WORK”(like not valuable enough),how to keep YOUR ideals yours(so many talented people out there).The things that come up when you start becoming successful. Good luck all!
