Started by Vlad Zablotskyy · 10 months ago

    I'm not an expert in affiliate marketing, and I'm under the impression that Jason isn't either. So... out of curiosity, why is he a key note speaker at an Affiliate Summit?

    Yes, Jason is most certainly slated as the keynote at Affiliate Summit 2008 West, and I'm anxious to hear his presentation.

    Thinking back over our first eight Affiliate Summits, I'd say just one of the keynotes would be considered an expert in affiliate marketing: Declan Dunn.

    The keynote that received the most acclaim to date was Ze Frank, who has little, if anything, to do with affiliate marketing.

    Our keynotes are intended to set the tone for the conference, challenge the audience, inspire, bring in new ideas, etc.

    The reality is that there are some scumbags in affiliate marketing. I don't like it, but I also don't think we should turn a blind eye to it.

    Jason has been a trailblazer with success on the Internet dating back to the 90's, and I think we could all learn a lot from him.

    Shawn,

    I am sure he has great deal of experience. Besides his name may actually draw more attention to Affiliate Marketing industry, thus educating people about our business.

    I guess I was ranting more than anything. I just gave a link to Jason's page on Affiliate Summit website.
