Affiliate Summit West 2010 – Day 2
Posted by Ad Hustler | Posted in Uncategorized | Posted on 19-01-2010
Affiliate Summit Day 2 was busy. The exhibit hall opened so I spent a lot of time walking around, talking to vendors and networking. Not too many booths really stood out. One company who I think is really doing a great job with their booth is Convert2Media. It’s not that their booth is super fancy but they create a good enviornment for affiliates to stick around and talk. I find that affiliates (particularly wickedfire ones) tend to always gravitate back to the C2M booth. It could be the beer or it could be the vibe.
I went out to lunch with Jason Rubacky from ShareaSale. We were going to go to a nice seafood place at the Rio but it was closed, as were most of the other decent restaurants so we went to an asian place. It was a good time, with good discussion. Jason is a good guy so If you want to work with Shareasale, hit him up.
I spent some more time at the show then headed back up to the room to chill for a while before a busy night.
I met up with Brittany Bankston, Emily Thomson & Josh From Monetizeit in the lobby at the Rio and drove over to the Meetup202/Bloosky event at the Palms. We hung out for a while and then I headed over to a dinner with Emily.
It’s Birdman Time
Dinner was with EWA Network. If you dont already know they are a private affiliate network run by Ryan Eagle & Harrison Gervitz. The dinner was at a nice french place in the Paris overlooking the fountains of The Bellagio. I got to see the fountain go off many many times which was cool. The people at this dinner were EWA Network employees, girlfriends & affiliates. The discussion was good and I had a good time. EWA knows how to do it up. Thanks for having me.
I next head to the Mundo Media Party. It was at the Kingpin Suite at The Palms. The Kingpin Suite is the only suite that has a bowling alley in the hotel room. I met some of my friends like Cousin Vinnie, CashTactics Kris, Ian Fernando and many more at the party.
After Mundo Media, I went to the CX Roll Like A Billionaire Party. It was a few floors up at The Palms in a really nice suite. They had a lot of cool things going on like acrobatics and dancers. I spent some time talking to Chad from CDF Networks about local. It was a good discussion and its always nice to know someone else who shares the same pains and problems within a certain niche.
That was it. Today is the last day off Affiliate Summit. Keep It Real.
