Nerdy Affiliate Adventures In Affiliate Marketing Land

Affiliate Summit West 2010: Las Vegas Recap Day 3

Posted by JasperP on February 1st, 2010

Day 3: Monday – Exhibit Hall

The exhibit hall is probably the same as the meet market except that there are booths instead of just tables.

Met up with the Convert2Media crew to hang out and get our beer breakfast.  They had some cool name tag stickers (NINJA OPTIMIZATION!), which was pretty funny:

Meetup202 Las Vegas

This was a  pretty sweet event.  I heard there was about 600 people in attendance and we got to hear about the Bloosky/Tracking202 deal from Wes Mahler and Matt and Ryan from Bloosky Interactive.

Here’s a short video of the event:

Some of the affiliates I met over there:

• James Seligman
• Ian Fernando
• Justin Biggs
• Charles Ngo
• Bryn Youngblut
• Andrew Payne
• Justin Biggs
• Kris Trujillo
• Andrew Wee
• Wes Moehlenbruck
• Justin Barr

They had some cool raffle prizes  and a neat photo booth as well as speakers from the different meetup202 organizers across the world.  I was actually one of the speakers at the event.  I was kind of nervous because of the fact that there was 600+ people, but since it was only like 2-3 minutes it wasn’t so bad.

I ran out of battery from my video camera, so I only have some really crappy video of it.  I think the tracking202 guys will  be uploading the video from the event soon.

CX Digital Roll Like a Billionaire Party @ The Palms

There were like 3-4 other parties above us, but we ended up chillin’ at CX Digital Billionaire Party.

Here’s some video of some guys messing around with the silhouette thing. lol

(Thanks to Roger Lee from TrouveMedia.com for some of the pictures)

Club XS @ The Encore

We finished the night off at XS and got drunk.  Check it out:

Affiliate Summit West 2010: Las Vegas Recap Day 2

Posted by JasperP on January 28th, 2010

Day 2: Sunday – First day of ASW: Meet Market

I got up kind of late, but managed to hit up the meet market in the afternoon.

The meet market is basically a meet and greet of different affiliates, networks and companies in the industry.  I usually come to meet other affiliates and make new connections.  Check it out:

Meeting Affiliates at the Meet Market Part 2

Here is a list of the people I met that were in the video:

Afterwards, Michael Salwet and I had dinner at Bellagio “Prime” with Ryan Eagle and Victor Mittelman from EWA network.  Got to meet Letien, Steven, and Christian as well.

Party Time at The Palms!

Then it was off to the Neverblue/Nickycakes/PPC.bz/Plenty of Fish Party!  It was at one of the sky villas at the Palms. It was pretty sick.  Didn’t take too many pictures though…

Networking Is The Key To Success!

Posted by JasperP on February 16th, 2009

A few days ago, Bryn posted a very important topic on his blog titled: “Networking Is The Most Important Thing In Affiliate Marketing.”  I really believe this is critical to your success and will keep you motivated to keep working on your business.  

Some people have asked me if I did consulting and were willing to pay me for it.   I told them “fuck that.. let’s just share tips and experiences!”  I don’t mind helping people out because I can also learn from them as well. 

Anyway, just wanted to post my top places to network with other affiliate marketers:

1.    
   Instant Messaging – I use this regularly and it’s easy to just get in contact with someone and discuss different topics of marketing.  Contact me at JasperP81 on AIM.
2. 
   Meetup202 - The meetup202 groups created by Wes and Steven of Prosper202 are GREAT for networking with other affiliate marketers.  I’ve met tons of people through my local Los Angeles meetup.  Check out if there are Meetup202 events in your area: meetup202.com.
3. 
   Affiliate Summit - Affiliate Summit West and Affiliate Summit East events are a MUST for affiliate marketers.  You get to connect with other marketers on a more personal level. Plus it’s great fun partying and just chillin’.  Mark your calendars: Affiliate Summit East is on Aug 9-11 @ New York City.  Check it out: affiliatesummit.com.
4. 
   Twitter - Twitter is another networking tool that can be used to get in contact with other marketers.  Dubbed as “mini-blogging”, you can reply back and forth with people about topics that they post or “tweet”.  Follow me at twitter.com/JasperP.
5. 
   Blogs - Subscribing to blogs are another way to get in contact with other marketers.  I personally use Google Reader to consolidate all the blogs that I follow.  I use this to keep an eye on the latest news in the Affiliate Marketing Industry.  Currently, I subscribe to about 100 blogs.  Check out Google Reader. It’s free! Then subscribe to this blog by clicking on my RSS link.
6. 
   Social Networking - Facebook and LinkedIn are popular spots to get in touch with other marketers.  I just started to expand my social network so hit me up on Facebook and LinkedIn.  
    
7. Forums - I used to be a bit more active on forums before, however, nowadays I’m not as active as I could be, but there are quite a few affiliate marketing forums out there such as WickedFire, Prosper202, PPC-Coach, Convert2Media, Cash Tactics, Xtreme Profits, etc.  If I’m on there, my username is usually “JasperP”.
