Media continues to evolve in the 21st century! Bloggers are the new media trend influencing upcoming generations that have started to rely more on the people they follow on social media rather than traditional media outlets. Learn more about working with influencers and bloggers at the upcoming WMPRSA event. This event will feature three Grand Rapids-based bloggers who have a range of interests and audiences.
Our panelists:
Sarah Visser
As a Grand Rapids girl born and raised The GR Guide is a true passion
project. Sarah spent five years in Chicago after attending Calvin College
working in advertising & fashion and started a lifestyle blog Project Soiree that
featured interviews, restaurant reviews, recipes and the latest fashion
trends. After returning to Grand Rapids she was thrilled to see the growth from
local entrepreneurs who are making their mark on the City, and came up with
the idea for The GR Guide to showcase these unique boutiques, fun
events, delicious restaurants and more!
