Chicks who-did a helluva lot more-than Click! January 12, 2009
We clicked, we clinked, we created, connected and collaborated, but what we didn’t do was “clique” and that is awesome! In all my years of event planning, I have never seen a conference so cohesive, so connected, what an amazing group of women (and dudes)! From inception to completion, we had energy, we had brilliance, we had more collaboration than I could imagine, there were laughs and tears and friendships made. We learned that although, we are all “connected” 24/7, that we actually survived for 60 minutes to “shut down” and find our inner wisdom woman! We learned how to utilize our social toolbox, we learned that there is no way to connect on 50 sites, but there are 5 fantastic ones that will work amazingly well! We were able to brainstorm and collaborate with a small group to strategize a social media plan and present that plan, which was so fascinating to hear all the groups and how creative and smart this group could be! We talked a lot about listening…listening and then communicating to our audience, how to be authentic and how to network within the social media structure.
Our presenters were top shelf! Networking was incredible, sponsors were off the hook! We are still chatting via #cwc09 on twitter, we have a Ning set up and Wayne is working on a Wiki! Pictures are posted to Flickr . Continue to create, connect and collaborate and we will see you again for #CWC10….nah, I can’t wait that long…stay tuned!

Conference shifts location to St Julien December 22, 2008
We will now be hosting the entire conference at the St Julien Hotel. For ease and convenience, if you have booked a room at the hotel, you can now just stroll down to the conference room without having to leave the hotel! If you are at the Marriott, it is just a short shuttle ride over. We will have plenty of signage, so look for the Chicks who Click signs and follow the voices to a great day of networking and learning with other very cool chicks!

Only one month to Chicks who Click! We have secured beautiful accommodations for you at the St Julien and The Marriott. The special negotiated room rates will be valid until December 10, 2008, so please get your reservations made sooner than later!
We have an impressive line-up of speakers and activities, add more and more everyday! This weekend should leave you feeling empowered, educated and renewed to get out there and blog, brand or just be-content in the place you are-that’s essential as well!

What to bring? November 13, 2008
As women, especially, we spend countless minutes, (ok, who are we kidding?-make that hours), on trying to figure out what to bring for a weekend! So here are a few “must haves” -laptop (essential), ski gear, stickers, business cards, promo materials and the like. What to wear, if you are skiing, of course pack your ski duds, if you are just conferencing, the caveat is, “it is Boulder” so please don’t come in business attire, be comfy, be creative, be exactly who you want to be, but do be warm! January could bring 60 degrees and sunshine or it could bring a blizzard, we have no idea! If you are staying at the St. Julien, it is a short walk to the Highland Building, but could be a short walk in the snow, so dress appropriately! We would love to see your Jimmy Choo’s but we may not want to see them from the ER…I’ll leave it at that!
Start tweeting about Chicks who Click at #cwc09! We’ve built the house….can’t wait to fill it with all the amazing people we are going to meet!
