We interrupt these lovely pregnancy-related posts to make a special announcement: Kirtsy and Microsoft Office Live have teamed up to host 100 Hands On Small Business sessions.
Seriously. One hundred sessions! And guess how much each session costs to attend? Zero dollars and thirty-free cents. That’s right. All 100 sessions are FREE to attendees.
The 100 individual events will happen between October 5 and November 20, in 20 cities across the United States and Canada. You can find the list of cities here. Each session will be hosted and led by Kirtsy editors, Kirtsy founders and Kirtsy friends — who just want to get together to show all you entrepreneurs and small business owners out there some new (and maybe not so new) cool things that will help make running and promoting your company easier, smarter and definitely more interesting.
So if we’re coming to a city near you, please plan to join in on the fun! And bring your laptop if you have one. But don’t bring any money. Because these sessions are free (did I mention they are free?).
You can find out all the info you need to know at the Hands On Small Business site. You can find out all about the awesome instructors. The excellent variety of dates.
So get ready, and get set to go save your spot on your favorite scheduled date.
We can’t wait to see you there!

This is going to be great! SO excited about the Austin sessions!
YAHOO!!! THEY'RE COMING TO MY CITY!!!!!! (Charlotte, NC!)
By the way, you forgot to mention how much it will cost :)
Awesome!! One question: I see that there will be 5 sessions in DC with the amazine Amie (yay!). Will they all cover different things or are they basically the same session offered five times?
This is going to be fabulous! I absolutely cannot wait! Thanks so much for letting us know about this!
And you're coming to Toronto! How great is that. I've just signed up and am really looking forward to it..thank you.
I'm glad this event is coming to Dallas! Unfortunately I couldn't see any details…I guess I'll check back on the site later.
Aimee, the sessions will each cover the same topics. But you are welcome to attend more than one — it might make for a good review. : )
Jennifer, for most of the cities, the dates are posted, but we're still waiting on info for the Dallas sessions. I hope you'll check back.
oh i'm so excited. i'm attending the oct 17 session in TO
Is it female only or can my husband and his male business partner attend?
Hi Michelle! The classes are taught by women and hosted by Kirtsy (often referred to as Digg for Chicks) so there will definitely be a lot of women in attendance.
But men are welcome too. For sure! In fact, we have yet to host a Hands On Session where men weren't a good portion of the audience.
Tell your husband and his business partner to sign up.
bad news: still nothing in new orleans. good news: one in dallas and I will be there for a few weeks very soon.
the dallas link is not working – do you know the dates yet? keeping my fingers crossed!!! :)
Yay! Very excited to be involved!
Got my ticket for Boston…You Kirtsy chickies are the best. Thank you!
I got my ticket for San Francisco. Very excited to meet Liz! Thank you for the news and links.
Shux, I wish they were hosting one in New Orleans!
I signed up for SF! Yay!
I got here through the handmade success blog and I'm so excited to read this! I'm kinda bummed bc I can't register yet, Miami has no info on the link :(
Hopefully they'll have many many sessions :)
