I could probably have come up with 7 things that are bad about IM conferences but since I am a glutton for sales pitches, I’m back off to Earl’s Court for more of the Speedcashseminar that I mentioned in my last post.

So, let’s get down to it. 3 things that fill us with joy at these events!

  • Waiting at the end of each session for anything up to 30 minutes for the pitch to finish
  • Sitting in fluorescent lighting all day when it’s sunny outside (and that’s rare for London!)
  • Knowing there is no real food anywhere nearby even when the short lunch break arrives

On the flip side, maybe I should balance those out with some reasons to be cheerful. How about:

  • Talking to some great people and finding the glimmerings of a cool joint venture
  • The speakers that really work for the audience. Steven Essa, hats off to you sir!
  • Realising that life can never be as hard as it seems to have been to every IM speaker 🙂

What do you love about internet marketing conferences? Add a comment and let me know. This could run and run!

Speed Cash Seminar ahoy!

I’m headed off to Mark Anastasi’s London internet marketing event at Earl’s Court tomorrow, so I hope to bring you news of what goes on as it happens. If you are there, ping me on twitter.com/martinpercival I will be taking beer vouchers just in case!
