Save your time and money for an event that Benefits YOU.
Louis,
Furthermore, please allow me to help you understand the background to why the iCAfma.org is on the AffCon website.
iCAfma.org is by no means the “organizer” or involved financially in ANY way. We get ZERO from this event. All Sue asked me to do was suggest some speakers. All I’m getting is a free pass.
Let me state this categorically: AffCon is GIGSE and GIGSE is AffCon. By calling a boycott for AffCon, you are calling a boycott for GIGSE and hurting Sue’s pocket. She has gone out of her way to include affiliate marketing into GIGSE. I fail to see why the affiliate marketing community would not be grateful to be there. (You can bet your boots the predators will be there to talk to the casinos. Why leave them the space to dominate the arena? Staying away is NOT the smart thing to do.
Hope this helps.
