TpT Conference 2014


What a fantastic time I had in Vegas at the first TeachersPayTeachers Conference!
I arrived on Wednesday and met up with the Blogger Meet Up at the Venetian where I won two door prizes! I got a doc cam and a subscription to the Social Studies Weekly for a year.







 I meet some great people, did a little shopping, and learned a lot. I was lucky to attend four great sessions.

The first session was with Deanna Jump and Deedee Willis. They were spectacular! I learned about some great clip artists and where to get royal free pictures. Also, they were inspirational and reinforced that I am on the right track with my products.



The second session I went to was with Nikki from Melonheadz! She made me feel like I could be an artist! I don’t think I have a talent, but maybe I could make a few things for my own products! She was funny and very sweet, I appreciate all she had to share!



Rachel Lynette was in my last two sessions. She had a lot of words of wisdom. She talked about finding your niche. She also gave good advice on selling with her experience.

Rachel Lynette and Laura Candler also had sound advice about making K-5 products for TpT. They gave me many things to think about like designing my products to copywriting my freebies!

Overall, the experience was overwhelming and full of information, but I enjoyed every minute! I am looking forward to next year’s conference!
