Affiliate Summit 2007 Wrap Up

Affiliate Summit played to a sold out audience of over 2,000 people. It was a great success. Congrats to Shawn Collins and Missy Ward for putting on a great event. I think Wynn Las Vegas did a fantastic job in a major sponsorship roll with the party at the Tryst and at the Icebreakers networking event. Great job Karen, Katie, and others that helped out. I didn’t attend as many classes as I would have liked, but the networking was great. If you missed the one in Vegas, you can still catch the event in Miami which I’m sure will be a equally valuable.

It was interesting hearing the different sides of the debates in a lot of the classes. I wish Michael Jacobs would have continued debating Vinny Lingham in the “Parasites or Partners” track on Tuesday. I enjoyed the presentation but I believe that Michael’s logic regarding affiliate search partners was (is) deeply flawed. I think a healthy debate was taking shape that would have benefited merchants and affiliates alike and that the discussion was ended prematurely.

I’ve uploaded a few pics of the event to my Flickr account for anybody that wants to take a peek.
