It’s the final day of Affiliate Summit West 2010, and it’s been a whirlwind event! With over 4000 people in attendance, every day has been very busy and productive. Our Meet Market table and exhibition booth have been swarmed by a mix of current and future vendors and affiliates, and we look forward to adding many new people to our network within the coming weeks.

ClickBank's Meet Market Table on Sunday

In addition to our event sponsorship and exhibiting on the show floor, our VP of Business Development and Marketing, Dush Ramachandran, led a popular session yesterday on affiliate marketing opportunities in Europe.

One of the highlights of this Affiliate Summit were the excellent keynote speeches by Dr. Robert Cialdini and Brian Clark of Copyblogger and DIYThemes, which sells the amazing Thesis theme for WordPress. Both speeches were hugely popular, and generated a lot of great discussion and ideas for boosting online profits in powerful and sustainable ways.

Even though it’s the last official day of the show, we’ve still got a packed schedule coming up, with client meetings, parties, and more! We’ll be posting video interviews with some of our clients very soon, but in the meantime check out our pictures from Day 1, 2, and 3 of the show.

Today is my first day back in the office after attending the Affiliate Summit in Las Vegas on January 11-13, and I’m excited! The conference was extremely productive and was a lot of fun, too!

We spent most of Sunday at our table at the Affiliate Meet Market. We had the opportunity to meet and speak with a myriad of people, whose knowledge of ClickBank ranged from “I’ve never heard of ClickBank. What do you do?” to “ClickBank!  I’ve been waiting for years to see you at one of these conferences!” We also thoroughly enjoyed meeting many of our current clients, several of whom we had corresponded with via email and phone calls but had never met face-to-face. How wonderful it is to finally be able to put a face with those names!

Monday was spent walking the show floor, talking with potential partners, and learning about other networks. We were blown away by how much the Affiliate Summit had grown since our first trip there last winter.

On Monday night, we hosted a VIP party at The House of Blues Foundation Room, an exclusive club at the top of the Mandalay Bay hotel with a fabulous view of the Las Vegas Strip. About 25 people attended and we had a wonderful time getting to know our clients on a social level, while listening to their ideas on what they like best about ClickBank and how we can improve our business. Thank you to all who attended-we had a great time with you!

We wrapped up the trip on Tuesday with a couple of meetings and another walk of the show floor, and then headed off to the airport for the return trip.

We would like to thank everyone who took the opportunity to introduce themselves to us at the Meet Market or while we were walking the show floor. We left with great memories and a boost of enthusiasm for the year ahead!
