That would make me profit. And it wouldn't cost the show organisers profit, because currently these people are not coming anyway. In fact, it would increase the org's profit because if they could guarantee x number of affiliates, more program owners would pay to come.
I would relish some less experienced affiliates. We could show them what to do, help them make more money. It would take a couple of seminars, sure. But isn't a trade show where you GO FOR SEMINARS? lol.

There are far easier, cheaper and more effective way to reach 1,000s of new affiliates than doing a newbies show. You're thinking inside the box as usual. Go away and think a little deeper rather than trying to sling mud. This is me being positive, if you can think a little deeper.

I know you don't really get this whole online thing, but did your mother never teach you that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all?
Sigh.

I was bitching that this industry has little answer to the decline other than getting more affiliates to send more traffic that does not spend. If you convert 1-100, which for most is a dream, you're losing 99% of your traffic. Convert at 1-1,000 and it's 99.9% of your traffic. Ans we all know which way ratios are going. Am I moaning? Yes, it's a shame to see the industry I love so incapable of adapting to the market.
