Affiliate Summit East 2010 is coming up and you need to be there if you’re an affiliate of any kind. Actually that’s not true. You need to be there if you’re at all interested in the internet – especially if you like to make money; be it consulting, affiliate stuff, or anything else. Being around so many tech savvy people really motivates geeks. It’s like a big nuclear explosion of geek.
It’s in New York City from August 15th through the 17th at the Hilton Conference Center. If you need directions or to register, check out their website – it’s pretty informative.
I am bringing two merchant customers of mine and hoping to meet up with some key players I haven’t seen in a little while. I wasn’t able to make it to the last two, because of scheduling issues, but I went to Affiliate Summit West 2009 and it was a blast, and I came back with so many ideas, I could barely contain myself.
Affiliate Summit is at the Hilton in New York City, August 15th - 17th 2010
Why am I bringing this up? Early bird pricing ends on April 30th, and I wanted to make sure that everyone knew about the event in time to get the cheapest possible pricing. In my opinion, nothing less than a Platinum pass is acceptable. You want to be able to go to all of the sessions if you’ve never been there before. A silver pass will suffice if you’re just going for the parties.
This is a great event for merchants to break into the affiliate arena. This is where I bring my merchants to teach them how the ropes work. It’s also great for affiliates of any level. You’ll be able to find people there of equal or greater skill than you, and I promise you’ll learn something.

If you’re having sticker shock about the price for passes (Platinum is almost $900), don’t forget to enter contests and things for them. I got 2 silvers and a platinum last year, and I already had my own passes bought.
