What
is
MOMFERENCE
Momference

an
organization

Momference
puts
you
in
“virtual
meeting
rooms”
with

babysitter!
Momference

America
and
from

the

Momference
is
committed
to
helping
mothers

families
in

As a
benefit
of
Momference,
we
donate
a

of
net
registration
proceeds
to
charities
and
non-profit
organizations
aimed
at
bettering
the
lives
of
women.
Momference
is
dedicated
to a
common
bond—that
regardless
of
the
many
superficial
differences
in
our
lives,
family
structure,
careers
and
dreams,
we
are
united
by
the
heart-felt
desire
to
be
the
best
that
we
can
be
in
every
aspect
of
our
lives
for
the
good
of
ourselves
and
our
loved
ones.

Momference events have a
somewhat different format than a typical
conference, designed for ease of use by
its busy participants. Below are some
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS that should
make your experience a piece of cake
(yummy chocolate cake actually).
If
you
have
any
questions
not
answered
here
or
just
need
our
help,
please
don’t
hesitate
to
contact
us
at
info@momference.com.
Where
are Momference
events held?
Momference
events
are
designed
for
ease
of
use
by
our
thousands
of
participants,
and
are
held
using
telephone
conference
lines
and
online
webinars,
so
you
can
participate
from
the
location
that
is
most
convenient
for
YOU
just
by
making
a
simple
phone
call
or
going
online.
Prior
to
each
session,
all
participants
will
receive
by
email
the
phone
number
to
call,
the
special
passcode
and
the
website
link
that
allows
them
to
enter
each
session,
just
like
you
would
make
a
normal
phone
call
or
visit
a
website.
(Depending
on
the
long
distance
calling
plan
on
the
phone
you
call
from,
toll
charges
may
apply,
just
like
any
long-distance
phone
call
you
make.)
By
conducting
our
events
in
this
format,
it
means
that
you
can
participate
from
anywhere
in
the
world
–
including
the
comfort
of
your
home,
your
office,
while
in
the
car
(please
use
a
hands-free
headset
- we
don’t
want
any
accidents),
etc.
No
need
to
get
a
babysitter,
put
on
makeup,
take
time
off
of
work,
or
disrupt
any
of
your
carefully
balanced
plans
and
schedules
at
all!
How
long
do
Momference
events
last?
Most
events
will
range
from
a
few
hours
to 1
day
long.
However,
certain
event
times
may
vary.
For
example,
our
2008
Momference
for
Divorced
Women
has
sessions
on
both
a
Wednesday
evening
and
the
following
Saturday
morning,
to
ensure
that
all
of
the
single
or
divorced
women
can
attend
at
least
part
of
the
event
live.
Of
course,
everyone
who
registers
gets
the
recording
of
entire
event
so
even
if
you
have
to
miss
some
of
it
live,
you
can
still
listen
to
all
of
the
sessions
at
anytime
at
your
convenience.
See
our
Event
Calendar
for
more
information
on
upcoming
events,
including
dates
and
times.
What
if I
can’t
make
one
of
the
sessions
I
really
wanted
to
hear?
All
of
our
events
are
recorded
as
downloadable
MP3
files
and
are
made
available
to
all
registrants
of
that
event.
CD
recordings
of
events
are
also
available
for
sale
in
the
Momference
Shops.
CDs
will
be
mailed
within
a
few
weeks
after
the
end
of
the
event,
enabling
you
to
listen
to
the
valuable
information
shared
with
you
at
anyplace
and
anytime.
How
can
I
ask
the
Experts
a
question?
There
are
a
number
of
ways
you
can
interact
with
the
wonderful
Momference
Experts
–
before
events,
during
events
and
after
events.
Because
of
the
volume
of
participants
on
the
calls,
it
is
not
feasible
to
have
everyone
on
at
once
with
an
open
microphone
during
the
presentations.
Momference
makes
it
easy
with
two
ways
to
interact
with
the
expert
on a
call.

What Moms
Said about the
2007 Momference
Event...
|
|
“<Momference> was
great! Cant wait
till the next one!” |
|
“I’m a mom and
Entrepreneur, and
was curious to see
if any of the
speakers and topics
would be of interest
to me. When I
printed the workshop
schedule, I ended up
highlighting 35
workshops I really
wanted to attend,
and others that I’d
be interested in
listening to if I
only had more time.
The MP3’s will come
in handy!” |
|
“The Momference was
a great idea. It was
very informative and
covered a lot of
interesting
topics... I loved
the Powerpoint
presentations that
follow along online.
Very good tactic for
visual learners.
Also, the ability to
ask questions online
was awesome as well!
GREAT IDEA
MOMFERENCE CREW!!!!”
|
|
“I’m a busy mom and
business owner, so
the …downloads of
all workshops and
other perks makes
this a no-brainer.
This will allow me
to attend the
conference on my
time table both
during the
momference week and
beyond. (It’s) is a
great value for a
one day event, let
alone a whole week
of workshops!” |
|
“Thank you for
putting on a week of
online workshops to
support Working Moms
everywhere. You made
it easy and
affordable for us to
participate, and we
have no excuse not
to attend! I’m
really looking
forward to it!“ |
|
“This is a wonderful
idea!!!! Outstanding
way to link moms
everywhere. This is
probably the only
way most moms like
myself have of
attending something
like this! 2 thumbs
way up to the
organizers of this
event! |
|
“I love the idea of
actually taking some
time for me. I have
5 kids, and 1 more
on the way. Finding
time for me seems
impossible at times.
I am looking forward
to being able to
learn some valuable
information from
this! Thanks for the
opportunity.” |
|
“What an innovative
idea for
moms...attend a
conference even in
our PJ's” |
|
“This was a great
experience. I loved
it!” |
|
"Just wanted to add
a 4 star stamp of
approval to the
Momference…so
awesome” |
