Relief – that is what I felt after Charlotte’s first blogging conference had ended, and to be honest, some pride in an event that was more successful than I had hoped.
I have taken part in a lot of conferences and have helped run a few, but never on my own like this. The challenges all centered around starting the event from scratch. And while it was not the smoothest process, it was more than worth it. And it was clear that the time had definitely come for an event like Charlotte WordCamp. And I expect it to be the first of many for the Queen City.
My original goal was to get around 40 people together at a local restaurant or meeting space, share some insights, and network. On the day of the conference, we had 120 attendees and more importantly momentum. I am very happy with the results. Here is a wrap-up so far:
