Affiliate Summit West 2009 was in Las Vegas again, and as we’ve already mentioned, the show was much improved over last year’s AffSum East 2008. Here are a few lingering thoughts about the conference’s high-points. We arrived in time to see the keynote by Gary Vaynerchuk. If any speaker is going to pump you up [...] (more)

I have to admit, I hadn’t really bought into the idea that micro-blogging (i.e.: Twitter) might provide any real business value until just recently (last Monday to be exact). While attending Affiliate Summit I watched presenters project their computer screens onto the wall – as they spoke – displaying the latest “tweets” from conference attendees [...] (more)
Last fall I attended “Affiliate Summit East 2008” (the affiliate marketing conference) in Boston and it left me unenthusiastic (to put it nicely) about attending future Affiliate Summits. But conference co-founder Shawn Collins did an excellent job of managing his brand and contacted me quickly about the concerns I shared on this blog. Ultimately I [...] (more)
Back in August 2008, I attended my first Affiliate Summit East Conference in Boston. I left Boston with more internet marketing knowledge than I arrived with, so I am looking forward to attending Affiliate Summit West this week and soaking up more information (although, I am a little less excited about the 6:30a.m. flight tomorrow [...] (more)
Ok, so the Affiiate Summit conference in Boston wasn’t nearly as good as their previous shows. I think I made that clear in my previous post. But it wasn’t a total bust – there were highlights.

Depending on your business, social media may not be the most appropriate branding method for you – but if have a way to incorporate it, then it comes highly recommended. Here are the social media [...] (more)
I was literally stunned by a couple of the ‘break out’ sessions at Affiliate Summit in Boston. Stunned at how underprepared and/or underqualified the speakers were. This was my third time attending this popular affiliate marketing conference, and as I’ve said time and time again, Affiliate Summit offers some great networking opportunities. Unfortunately this time [...] (more)
I was fortunate enough to attend the 2008 Affiliate Summit East conference in Boston last week and I feel like my brain is brimming with internet marketing knowledge. I was a marketing major in college and have been working in the field for some time, so I was pleasantly surprised with how much valuable information [...] (more)

Wearing Both Publisher and Merchant Hats at the Affiliate Summit Conference
Posted by: Jeremy Reither
Affiliate Summit is a great internet marketing conference in many ways, but ironically affiliates themselves are actually severely under-represented at this show. The majority of attendees are affiliate networks (trying to attract new merchants or publishers) or merchants (trying to learn about new methods of attracting publishers or running their programs). The smallest group at [...] (more)

Earlier this year I posted a list of the biggest and best internet marketing conferences. There are a few that I attend regularly, traveling to various cities to catch up on industry trends, network, and basically get out of the office for a few days. But in addition to those old favorites, I’m always looking [...] (more)
