Why not? The Costa Rica Bash was awesome and had affiliates in attendance and was at an all-inclusive tropical resort.

I can also think of one very big affiliate of mine who CAN'T come to the U.S. because of visa issues. The last time I saw him was in Amsterdam a couple of years ago. But he could and would go to Mexico no problem.

And in case you didn't notice...99% of affiliates are NOT going to the current shows. And haven't in years.

Just sayin'...the shows are boring. And in response to all this talk about "I'm an online marketer" That's cool. But if you know me and know my history as an affiliate...I think I've sold a few memberships here and there. And when I say as an affiliate that I would like shows to be more affiliate ("online marketer") friendly and fun rather than the current billers on parade sausage fest...then I think it would behoove the show organizers to listen to me.

I will still attend the shows that come to Vegas. But I'm not traveling anymore for the current shows. I'm gonna turn my attention to fan shows. I believe I can make return of investment money on the spot at those shows selling memberships.

And that's a lot better than what I'm hearing everybody else say about these "meetings" that all these "business" decisions are made at....and then everybody goes home and doesn't follow up and no money is made at all.
