Day One of the 2009 Affiliate Summit East is over and I had a blast! Now I know what I was missing all these years! Â I've often read other Bloggers and Affiliate Marketers talk about how important it is to conduct face to face marketing and meetups and they are 100% right! Â The kicker is I got to meet some of my all time favorite "Super Affiliates"!
I attended the "Microniches" session conducted by Dush Ramachandran (@DushR), The Getting Noticed FAST session conducted by Mike Buechele (@mikebuechele), Trisha Lyn Fawver (@trishakyn), Lisa Picarille (@lisap), Personal Branding 2.0 conducted by Stephanie Agresta (@stephagresta) and Sarah Austn (@pop17) and finally the SEO Site Clinic conducted by Michael Gray (@graywolf), "Sugar" Rae Hoffman (@sugarrae), Michael Streko (@streko), Frank Watson, and Chris "Pearsonified" Pearson.
I enjoyed all the sessions, especially Sugarrae's at the SEO Clinic. Â I even met John Chow (@JohnChow) at the clinic! Â If you don't know, I won my Gold Pass from John by entering an ASE contest on his Blog. Â After the sessions I went to the meetup hall and met a few vendors and got to meet John Chow again, Shoemoney, Zac Johnson, Missy Ward, and Loren Feldman!
