Episode 03 Part 1: How to Be a Multi-passionate Entrepreneur and Secure Sponsorships with Major Brands

June 30, 2020 • Kaywanda Lamb • Season 1 • Episode 3

In this episode, I sit down with Stacey Ferguson co-founder of BeBlogalicous.com and coach, speaker, and brand strategist at JusticeFergie.com. Blogalicious is a multicultural blogger conference for women of color. We discuss how to be a multi-passionate entrepreneur, the mindset behind building a huge blogger conference that had never been done before, why diversity and inclusion matters, and why it was so important to her over the ten year run of Blogalicious to have space for women who looked like her.

We also discuss partnering with others to excel further faster and how to always give your audience what they want. She shares how she’s sealed some major deals with sponsors and magical partnerships. And it’s not as hard as you think!

This is a two-part interview with amazing nuggets. If you are a blogger or want to start a blog, hearing Stacey’s journey and insight will bless you. We also touch on challenges to live events and how she overcame planning a major conference when a hurricane happened in her host city. Wherever you are in the process, do not let small beginnings discourage you. Share your uniqueness with your tribe.
