Billie Hillier is a blogging addict (second to being a domain junkie). With over 15 years in traditional and internet marketing in her back pocket, she loves helping others master marketing techniques to benefit their businesses.<\/p>\n

Feeling that there was a need to help women entrepreneurs grow their online presence with a thorough understanding of what it takes to be successful, she recently founded Education Thru Collaboration (previously Mommy Blogger U).<\/p>\n

Located in sunny Las Vegas, her goal is to build a local community with a common bond of bloggers, social media junkies and techies.<\/p>\n
