With the fall edition of our Business, Branding, and Social Media Workshop series just around the corner, we thought we’d revisit our spring workshop. Co-hosted by Camila Alves McConaughey of Women of Today, the spring 2019 BBSM Workshop had a special focus on social media marketing and content creation. In addition to panel discussions, Q&A time, and the opportunity to network with one another the panelists, workshop participants were treated to a beverage and appetizer demo--complete with a break to taste all the goodies!--and got to take advantage of the spectacularly styled space to get started on their own content creation.

Meet the Panelists:
A senior editor at Texas Monthly, Jordan Breal is based in Austin, but as the magazine's resident travel writer she spends most of her time on the road. And while she has stayed at more than a hundred hotels and B&Bs across the state, she has lost count of the number of slices of pie she's eaten in small towns. Her work has also appeared in AFAR, National Geographic Traveler, and Southern Living, among other publications, and she recently coauthored Wildsam Field Guides: San Antonio.
Beginning in 2012, out of a small apartment in Houston, Travis Weaver started Manready Mercantile by making soy candles in reusable whiskey glasses and selling them door-to-door to local businesses. He hit every little market possible and continued to add small batch apothecary items creating a collection of all-natural products. Word of his endeavors traveled and his story gained international attention. Travis’ vision has always been to show the world you really can start from nothing and anyone can change their stars. You’ve gotta work hard. Work smart. Be honest. And support your community. If you take the right steps and push through it all, greatness will happen! Folks, the American Dream is alive and flourishing - Manready Mercantile is proof! "Work Hard, Live Well" - T.S. Weaver
Testimonials From Past Participants:
"What better way to connect, collaborate, listen, and learn from people who are experienced in small business growth." - Mark N.
"I think the biggest thing I learned was to tell a story that's authentic to my brand. That's something my brand has struggled with, but after today I know exactly how I want to tell my brand's story and exactly what I want to say." - Tara T.
"One thing I learned today is to live with intention. There's got to be a 'why' behind what you're doing, and when you know the 'why' it's really easy to move forward in your business and branding." - Kristen P.
A light brunch and refreshments will be served, and a swag bag full of great gifts will be included! We're super excited about these two crazy talented speakers and will be revealing more panelists in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!
