SOBCon 07: Another Chance at the $250 Registration
People Have Asked
Some stellar individuals have come to me, saying that they missed the SOBCon 07 $250 registration fee. Each of them asked whether they might have a second chance.
I spoke to each person myself. I told them that real people are investing our hearts, our time, and our own money in presenting SOBCon 07 because we know that a blogging conference can be a remarkable experience. We know because we’ve built a conference that reflects the values of a successful and outstanding blog — unique, content-rich presentiations and authentic relationships.
Then I asked to hear their stories. Every blogger had passion and so much insight and experience to bring to the conference.
I went back to the committee. We agreed to help those bloggers. They belonged at SOBCon 07. We owed it toeveryone who is attending. The best attendees make the best conference.
Another Chance at the $250 Fee
So, here’s another chance at the $250 registration fee. If you think that you belong at the SOBCon 07 conference, it’s also only fair that you should have to do what they did. . . .
Persuade ME
Here’s how to do that
1. Write a unique blog post explaining why SOBCon 07 will be even more outstanding with you attending — be honest, be clever, be creative, be unique, be an outstanding blogger. Use words, use pictures, tell a story, write a report, make a list. — Persuade Me.
2. Link back to the SOBCon 07 blog, so I’ll know that you have a post for me to see.
3. I’ll come to your post and leave comment. In the comment, I’ll tell you what to do next. . . . if you persuaded me.
There is only one rule — be nice.
If there’s any part of this that you don’t understand, shhhh, you can email me at lizsun2@gmail.com.
Everyone knows I have high standards, but I’m not stingy.
$100 off! Get creative and persuade me.

[...] These things do cost money. The fee for SOBCon is $350. Register now, though, and you can take $100 off that by convincing Liz. But April 1 the fee goes up to $450. Like so many other things, delay in action makes it more expensive.If it wasn’t for my permanent date with a theatre, I would be going. In early May Chicago can be a beautiful city. The Sears Tower is something to see. Lake Michigan seems to go on forever. I’ve talked to several of the speakers and attendees. They’re some of the best people I’ve ever encountered, and have taught me many things about how to use blogging to say what I want to say, and how to build relationships with other people. Add the chance to hear Christine Kane perform live (she’s opening the conference on Friday night and is one of the best writers I know)… [...]
