Mike Allen's Thoughts on Affiliate Summit West Plus Gary V.
I think everyone who attended Affiliate Summit West walked away with something - new business contacts, motivation, new passions, and new perspective. The more I look through blog posts summarizing people’s experiences, the more I realize what a top-notch event Affiliate Summit is, and why it is worth the not-super-cheap cost of admission.
Mike Allen from Revenews created a list of four of his take-aways from Affiliate Summit. They (paraphrased) are:
- If you are just working for money, you won’t be happy. Have passion in your work.

- Help the affiliate marketing industry long term by keeping your own tactics clean. The last think we want is to become bigger targets of regulators, search engines, and major industry lawyers.
Great stuff Mike.
I wanted to end this post with a fun clip of someone who was at the summit who is truly reaping the rewards of following his passion. The person is Gary Vaynerchuk of Wine Library TV. Gary runs the Wine Library podcast to share his knowledge of wine and to educate people about the wine world.
Gary has gained quite a bit of notoriety from his podcast and has appeared on Ellen, Nightline and, as you will see below, The Conan O’Brien show. As you’ll see, his passion for wine is infectious. Imagine what your business would be like if you were this passionate about what you do…
