Domain-Guides

Morning folks!!

In our recent survey one of the things you told us is that you want the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. show open to more domainers. We always hear if you drop the price it will open the show up to more people. The balancing act is doing that while keeping the quality of the attendee high as well as the service and food we provide. Howard and I decided to find out if this is actually true or not and will run this experiment because of a one time circumstance at the Orlando show.

In order to get the entire convention center at the Grand Floridian hotel, we were required to reserve more hotel rooms than we were actually going to use. The facility was so good and would allow us to do so many types of new things, we decided we would bite the bullet on those rooms to get that venue. Instead of having those rooms sit empty while we are still paying for them we decided to try this offer based on your feedback.

Here is the deal:

If you are a domainer that has never been to a T.R.A.F.F.I.C. show because of the expense, Howard and I will pay your hotel room in Orlando to prove what a value TRAFFIC is. We are so sure you will find it to be a turning point in your careers and your business that Howard and I will pay the $269/night exclusive of all taxes and fees and associated room charges at the Grand Floridian for up to 3 nights. That's an incredible offer. This is limited to the first 25 people that reply by midnight Friday, March 14th. This is only available to first time TRAFFIC attendees and is not valid for new personnel of companies, groups or associations that have been to TRAFFIC. If, when you leave TRAFFIC, you agree that TRAFFIC was a real value and good investment of your time, then we request that you join the ICA at the $295 level. This is completely voluntary on your part, but that is what we ask in return to helping you get to TRAFFIC if, and only if, you find it to have been a great value. If you have been previously invited, just go register on the website as usual and then send Howard and email telling him you are a first time attendee. He will send you instructions once we coordinate with the hotel. If you need an invite, there is a link right here.

Hope that can make the difference for some. See you all in Orlando!

Have a GREAT Day! Rick Schwartz

At each T.R.A.F.F.I.C. show Ron Jackson sits in on about every seminar and event that is held at TRAFFIC. I have no idea where he gets the energy to do that. Then what is more incredible is his talent to give a play by play and unbiased review of each and every event and give you a true flavor of what has transpired. It is a vivid description that only folks like Phil Rizzuto or Ralph Kiner could give. But somehow Ron has a gift that few truly have. It brings me back to each event and each moment and I am sure others will testify to that.

As a side note, when I read the story Ron wrote today, I noticed he had some Superbowls in his history. I wrote the comparison with 2 baseball announcers before I knew that. So pretty interesting of the unintended overlap. Wrong sport, but you all get the idea.

Below are links to several other reviews. Independent thoughts and conclusions of what they saw and how they participated I'll just end the way I ended my own blog post last week and then some other thoughts.

"I will let others review the success and accomplishments of TRAFFIC X, but Howard and I walk away knowing we gave it everything we had and hope we added value to everyone's business and the industry in general. Like I have said since day one....."When you bring GREAT people together, GREAT things will happen."

The only thing I can add is that TRAFFIC is filled with opportunity. Some folks seize opportunity, some folks ignore opportunity, some folks would not know opportunity if it smacked them upside the head. The magic of TRAFFIC is the opportunity that is flying thru the air in an invisible manner. But folks that recognize opportunity also create opportunity. It is the one thing that is so hard to capture. Howard and I supply those conditions because that is our goal and then it is up to the attendee to make it into something life changing. That is why so many come back each and every show and so many travel from outside the USA to attend. TRAFFIC provides something that money can't buy. The magic is in the quality of those that attend. They provide the energy and the ingredients. What Howard and I do is funnel that energy and refine it into conditions that bring and nurture opportunity. Together that moves everyone in the industry forward. Friend or foe, everyone has benefited.
