Type-A Mom Sponsors
Follow Type-A Mom Sponsors on Twitter
When clients ask me which social media conference they should sponsor, I always suggest Type-A first. Unlike many other similar events, Type-A allows sponsors to connect with social media moms in an intimate way that generates brand loyalty and long lasting relationships. Your logo doesn\'t get lost among hundreds of others and the organizers genuinely care about connecting your brand with the attendees.
