The Girl Behind The Blog- Coffee Date Prompt

I want to introduce a girl to you today who I seriously adore- My friend Alissa. She is so crazy good at this whole bloggy thing... its kind of ridiculous. I started to see her around the blogosphere before I even knew what the blogosphere was and I have loved watching her grow. She is the heart behind RagsToStitches and the business savy behind Pollinate Media. She's totally sweet and fun and I could go on and on, which might be kinda stupid because you probably already know who she is or have seen her around.

I got to meet her at The Influence Conference last year and I have to admit... I was kind of intimidated. At the time she was still running her super successful shop and had just started Pollinate and I was worried she might not want to talk to little ol' me... even though we had talked on twitter and whatnot because you never know how people you meet on the internet are in real life. But she was seriously sweeter than I would have thought. And man, does this girl have networking and blog community down to a science. 

She has a weekly coffee date vlog link-up that is super fun and I have this monthly vlog link up that I personally think  is super fun and it was only a matter of time until I got the guts to ask her  they eventually overlapped. And what better topic to talk about with the queen of networking and all you lovely ladies here in this community than the blog community itself? 

So, this Friday, January 25, 2013 we invite YOU to link up for this Coffee Date/ The Girl Behind The Blog vlogging extravaganza. And maybe make a few new friends. All you have to do is follow both of our blogs, post either of our buttons anywhere on your blog, and post a short vlog answering the following questions. You'll only have to link up on one of the host's blogs because our links will be interlinked. We really hope you join us. You can grab a button below to put up on your blog. Spread the word and lets get to know each other a little better! Here are the deets... feel free to make your video your own but please try to stick to these prompts and the time limit.
