What some of our exhibitors said: 

We are overwhelmed and humbled with just how popular Happy Hair Brush is with influencers. Influencers even came from other states to learn more about our mission to make One Million Women Happy with our superior brushes that go above and beyond detangling hair for kids and adults alike. The women we met influence nearly 3 million people. That’s incredible! The amount of promotion they have already generously given our brushes, even moments after meeting us and posting stories and posts about our products sets us up to be well on our way to reaching our targets! We are thrilled with both these awards and grateful for the support of the influencers who are getting behind our movement to transform the world of how women brush their hair forever!  Jen Harwood, Founder & CEO.

Influencers attending were equally impressed:

So many amazing brands! I loved them all! I would highly recommend brands jumping on board… Best day ever! ” – Fearless_mummy_bella (13,500 followers)

“It is so great to connect with brands face to face!” – Elise, What’s on 4 (157,548 followers)

Christie Nicholas, Managing Director, Kids Business Communications adds:

“Nothing compares with the power of a face to face meeting. It is more emotive than an email or DM and the easiest way to discover if there is a genuine fit between you and your promotional partners.  In just 4 hours, these 14 brands were able to set up their influencer marketing campaign for the next 6 months and know with certainty that influencers open to being on the journey with these brands share the same values. As a result, the partnerships are genuine, the content is more authentic and valuable to the readers keen to learn more.“
