Will Blog For Food (or Flights)

Do you know what you're doing on March 19th next year? I do. Well sorta. It'll be one of two things:

Attending the fabulous Aussie Blogger's Conference in Sydney - Woo! High Fives and a happy dance!

or

Crying and feeling sorry for myself cos all my bloggy friends are there without me. Boo! Put those hands down and do a sad dance (actually for me, all dancing looks rather sad).

I really wanna go. So much so that it hurts a little bit when I cough.

And I'm not too proud to beg...
Why does bloody everything have to be in Sydney? Why couldn't the powers that be choose Perth, the most isolated capital city in the world, to hold their conference? It's just plain inconsiderate, really, that they go and host it over there where most of the members of the group live. Typical.

So here I am appealing to you all for a little help. And by help, I of course mean money.

You can sponsor me! Wouldn't that be lovely? If you could spare a few dollars, all you have to do is click on the Sponsor Me button below. It'll take you to a secure PayPal site where you can donate a few dollars (or, like $1000 if you're feeling particularly generous).






Then I can go to the conference which is specifically geared toward "Mummy Bloggers" so I'd fit right in since I'm a Mummy and a Blogger.

But what do you get for it? Well other than my eternal love and devotion, you'd get your name in lights on the blog.



If you're a company I can wear your logo all over me (temporary tattoo anyone?), put your ad on the blog and give out your business cards whilst telling everyone how freakin awesome you are! Plus I'll blog, Facebook and Tweet from the conference too, to give you maximum exposure!

If you'd like to find out more about being a corporate sponsor you can email me at Glowless{at}gmail{dot}com and I'll send you a Media Kit (OMG, I have a Media Kit!). But if you're just a plain, ordinary person like me and wanna help a Perth gal get all the way to the Harbour City click below and help a blogger out! Thanks!

  4. I've just realised that the conference is in Sydney (thanks for pointing it out) and I live in Sydney... There is just the minor task of getting someone else to look after the kids. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

  6. frustrating living on the isolated west coast isn't it? i was hoping to make it to the conference but a very good friend is getting married on the 19th so we will be staying west next march...

    good luck - i hope you get sponsorship! Any others making it from PERTH i wonder? perhaps, all the WA BLOGGERS who want to go (but can't) can donate a few dollars to GLOWLESS and you can represent us all over there....seriously, we DO miss out on stuff over here!

  14. Thanks Brenda! If only it was as easy as selling a shiz load of lamingtons or freddo frogs...

  15. mwahaha. Think some of the other will appreciate it? Or just go "oh, you're not so scary???"

  16. Road trip, Nanny? Probably cheaper to fly actually.

  17. Half the room would cringe, the other half would ask to buy it off you! Either way it'd make for an interesting day!

  18. I came back to suggest the donation option as a back-up plan, but it looks like someone else has already thought of it. It would be easier to convince people to give you a few dollars at a time than the whole lot.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I have a little donate button (well 3 actually) up there ^^^ but so far only my sister (the fabulous Aunty Penny) has used it.

  20. SS just questioned me about the credit card, what is this blogging thing...mmm, I am going to a conference, in March, for the weekend, on my own, you need to give me more money, for delights and accommodation...unless I do a blog beg too!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Ha ha ha, that is flights not delights...predictive text thing again!

    ReplyDelete
  22. But money for delights would be appreciated too :P

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'd highly suggest a blog beg. Get on your knees and pray to the Bloggy Gods even? I'm willing to do almost anything :P

    ReplyDelete
  24. Oh, I think I've missed them all the first couple of times I dropped by. I saw the $1000 next to one of your buttons and my mind automatically switched off...

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hey, we're Mums... switching off is what we do!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ahhh I just got a LOVELY notification from PayPal.... THANK YOU!!! Your name is gonna be up in lights! Thank you so very, very much!
