My views on Internet Marketing Conferences

Since I started working fulltime online, I’ve been to several Internet Marketing conferences. If I had written this post a year ago, I would have said these where a waste of time. Of course I had never been to one so I would not have been talking about actual experience. Well I’ve been to two conferences in the past month. The first was Stompernet here in Atlanta held a couple of weeks ago and today I went to the World Internet Marketing conference, also in Atlanta.

Both of these were very useful. Of course these are designed to get you to buy something, but there is also a lot of good information shared at these meetings. I only went today to the World Internet Marketers conference so I can’t really comment on which was better, they both have their strengths. I still have not decided whether I’ll go back to the conference tomorrow. Perry Belcher is speaking and even though he is speaking on Social Media and not PPC, I may need to hear him.

Stompernet was a great experience even though it gave me some information overload. I learned so much at it that I could not even start to describe all the benefits. The easiest thing is if you have a chance to attend a Stompernet Conference, just go. I’ve got so many ideas about how to improve my online business that it will take me months to implement just half of them. I got so many good ideas, you will start to see a change in me very soon. I’m not going to leave the No Nonsense theme, jsut refine it. I’ll post more on that later.

Well back to the world Internet Conference. I was late to it today and only got to listen to a couple of speakers. One was Carrie Wilkerson and I really enjoyed her presentation. She seems real and down to earth. She has branded herself as the Barefoot Executive and has had a lot of success in just a little while online.

She said one thing in her presentation that resonated with me. Don’t wait until everything is perfect, just do it. It does not matter if you are writing an ebook product, affiliate marketing, trend blogging or what ever. Just do it. I know I’m guilty of procrastination from time to time and I’m sure most people who decide to work online do procrastinate. This is because there is so much information coming at you all the time. Its hard to stay focused. Since I lost the day job, I’ve become more focused, but no where to the point I need to be.

If you are struggling to make some money online then just get out there and do something. don’t wait until its perfect to start as that will never happen. Just get out there and do something. Anything you do today will help you reach your goals tomorrow.

By the way if you are not a member of my list, make sure you get on it. I’ve got a special gift coming very soon to people who are on my inner circle.
