Pubcon Update

Hey everyone. Pubcon has been an absolute blast so far. Unfortunately I forgot my camera transfer cable, so I can’t publish any photos yet, but check out this video of Shoemoney talking about branding:

Branding – What Everyone Needs To Think About

The thing that I have stressed most about why conferences and conventions are so important is for increased branding. There are few things more powerful branding-wise than meeting and interacting people in person.

I have been fortunate to meet a ton of well-known industry professionals over the past several days and because of that, there is a much greater chance that these people will remember me now, compared to if I had just sent them an email or left a comment.

Tons of Free Crap

Another great thing about these expos are all the free crap that companies give away. Today, I made the rounds and picked up tons of free hats, t-shirts, stickers, mouse pads, even back massagers – all of which I will be giving away in a blog contest as soon as I get back!

Tomorrow, I will fly back from Las Vegas to Phoenix and upload all of my Pubcon photos and write a much more detailed summary of Pubcon and the past two days.

If you want to check out more photos from Pubcon, check out Shoemoney’s photos from the first night. Unfortunately, I wasn’t there the first night, so I am not in any of these photos, but these photos will give you a glimpse of the kind of parties that go on at these conferences.
