Great Time at Focus Marketing Seminar
Wow! What a great time I had this past weekend in Washington DC at the Focus Marketing Seminar. It was a great pleasure to meet many of the great people who are part of this online medium we all share. They are as friendly a bunch of people as you could ever want to meet. It was great fun to actually rub elbows with the movers and shakers of the industry!
At the risk of getting in deep trouble for forgetting someone, here are the many people I met, in no particular order…
Jon Olson, Cindy Battye, Paul Kinder, Justin Ledvina, William Brant, Sunny Suggs, Dan Moses, Dan Davis, Mike Paetzold, Jon Atwood, Tony Tezak, Robert Purcell, Soren Jordansen, Tim Linden, Tim Rash, Travis Millward, Ryan Hogan, Solomon Huey, Jen Herold, Ray Herold, and Paul Conway.
If you ever get a chance to attend one of these great events… do it! Meeting all the great people alone will be worth it, not to mention the great information you’ll take back with you.

Hey Michael, it was great meeting you man.. after working together off and on for so many years.. it’s always nice to put a face and hand shake to the moment. :o)
Just wish we had more time to catch up on things… with so many people there is tough to get 20 min with anyone.
Hope to see you again next year.
L8er!

Indeed some great times at the Focus Marketing Seminar in DC. I don’t recall if we met, but I was the one with the large camera. If you want some pictures email me and I will give you a password for the gallery here: http://www.riphoto.com/gallery/5755953_idihC

Great to hear from all of you over here!
I immensely enjoyed meeting each of you, and the time we were able to talk, though much too short, I found quite enjoyable and rewarding.
Dan, you are so right… it’s hard to stay focused when every few minutes someone else passes by that you’d like to meet.
Travis, it was great to meet a RoyalSurfer in person and I’m so glad you made it!
Jen, has it been years? Doesn’t seem like it but I think that’s a good thing.
Paul, it was a pleasure. Thanks much for the advice and for listening.
William, me too! I spent much of my time just taking in the fact I was rubbing elbows with so many winners that I hardly had time to comprehend anything else. LOL
Jonathan, I think we did meet at least informally and if I recall correctly, you, I and a handful of others shared our lunch together one day. I’ll certainly be contacting you about the password.
Thanks everyone… I look forward to the next time I’m able to see you all again! It was a great deal of fun!
