QueenPin Event Overview

Connecting with Social Advocates

It’s Not a Bowling Event…It’s THE After Hours Event Every Blogger Wants to Attend

"marketing is no longer about awareness and reach (who is not aware of

Walmart?) it's about engagement“

- John Hayes, CMO American Express

QueenPin Overviewengaging with real time media

• QueenPin is the interactive brand influencer event including some of the most influential female bloggers in the space today. Over 700 highly connected guests will enjoy an exciting evening of bowling, music, celebrities and networking.

• Event sponsors benefit by building direct relationships with advocates who are looking to go beyond the sample and connect directly with their favorite brands. Many relationships built at last year’s event, BowlHer have extended into brand campaigns throughout the year. Danielle Smith of extraordinarymommy.com &

• The QueenPin event serves as an brand connection aperture. Great opportunities exist to create meaningful brand engagement before, during and after the event. From shopping immersions and sampling opportunities to digital and real time media creation, attendees connect with QueenPin sponsors during the weeks leading up to the event.
