Are you an aspiring outdoor writer, blogger, or podcaster? Do you want to break into the travel writing market? Maybe you're a marketing professional working in the outdoor space? If you said yes to any of those questions, you probably should consider attending Outdoor Blogger Summit this year. And if you do, I can help save you some money on the registration.What's Outdoor Blogger Summit you ask? It is an annual conference aimed at media and marketing professional in the outdoor industry. This year, the event will be held in Roanoke, Virginia and will feature a good mix of educational sessions, opportunities to get to know some top outdoor brands, fun activities, and networking with others who are working in this fun, but often challenging field.
If you're interested in knowing what will be happening there, check out the full schedule here. Things get started on Sunday, October 14 with registration and a "speed dating" event between attendees and brands. Then on Monday and Tuesday of that week the sessions and speakers will get underway with a full slate of topics, including how to manage social media outlets, learning how to work with a busy editor, and how to maximize your time as a freelancer. Yours truly will even be sharing some insights on how to get on more press trips, which can open up a whole host of opportunities.
Registration for the 2018 OBS is now open and if you're interested in attending, I have a discount code that you can use to get $100 off of your rate. Typically, the cost of attendance is $399, which includes two nights stay at Hotel Roanoke, an all access pass for the conference, several meals, happy hours, and a swag bag. That pice comes down to just $299 if you enter the code FRIEND-OF-KRAIG at the checkout process. That's a pretty great deal for anyone looking to meet folks working in the outdoor industry and network with others too.
