SES, ASE and the way it REALLY is !

OK,

So,  it has been a few weeks since my last post.

I am not lacking in new insights, new dirt and new shenanigans on all levels of the industry and connections to it.

While many went to ASE (affiliate summit east).

I did not see the benefit THIS time vs. the cost with 2 major projects going on (automation of mobile marketing and SERP compliant game sites) and the desire to save all my capital for the REAL earnings season and traffic.

Yes, you can make money in the summer months, but why make 10%-20% on less traffic or smaller niches. When you can save up and make 50%-500% on larger traffic flows and niches.  (If, you ask nicely I will reveal the MASSIVE waves of buyers that are coming online for buying season.)

SES (SES Conference & Expo) was very interesting.

1. There was very little affiliate action there (not to be surprised), BUT the attendees there are looking for a larger dollar than many affiliates ever see. The corporate and enterprise ad dollar.

2. Large companies doing marketing are having some of the same issues that I have seen in affiliate marketing. At one meeting. Ebay’s head of marketing admitted that they were JUST figuring out what cost their display ads should be.

3. Some of the most basic concepts in affiliate marketing are foreign or brand new to major companies and agencies

Over the next few days. I will post more detail.

It was very, very interesting to see online marketing and money from the top down vs. the bottom up. (according to SES)

The experiance and data confirmed many theories and strategies I have discovered or learned about surviving and thriving on the internet.

More to be posted… so, please come back.

Remember,

Trust No One, including Me.
