ABOUT CLEVER GIRLS COLLECTIVE

Clever Girls Collective believes that the right guide makes social media for business as simple as having a conversation. It works like this:

• Someone finds a great product, website or social cause
• She tells all of her friends about it
• They try it, love it and tell all their friends
• Who all go try it, too

Finding the right people to start that chain reaction — that’s our specialty. We know how to find the influencers who:

• Like to try new things
• Have loads of friends
• Are social media power users
• Excel at communicating in person and online

Through them we help you reach a staggering number of customers, in a way that continues to expand over time, with solutions that are targeted, customizable and measurable.

We are Clever Girls Collective, a social media agency founded by three women who decided to use their deep marketing experience, and broad social network relationships, for good.

We understand product launches, viral campaigns, promotional giveaways and how to build a following, all on tight deadlines and shoestring — or huge — budgets.

As new media consultants and professional bloggers, we three co-founders —Stefania Pomponi Butler, Sheila Bernus Dowd and Cat Lincoln — all know first hand what makes someone want to write a review post, R/T your coupon code, and become your Facebook Fan.

This is a fantastic idea, and I look forward to joining the Holiday Twitter Party and will definitely tweet it up in advance! I plan to contribute some holiday travel tools and tips made by moms, specifically, Children's travel activities from My Busy Kit http://bit.ly/8nzWqD, and mom-developed iPhone apps for kids and families http://bit.ly/8q73gJ. Can't wait!
