Wendy: I agree with you, the two are SOBCon 08 and Unleashed. I think it's because of the people and the spirit of cooperation & sharing there. I'll be at SOBCon'08 and look forward to your talk. Chris Chris Brown's last blog post..Online Advertising Snowballs

I believe you bring back so much from conferences. That is great that you were able to go to so many of them and walk away with so much information from them. And even better that you were able to speak at them also.

Dear Wendy,

Though I haven’t spoken at or attended either one of these 2 conferences, I agree wholeheartedly, and have posted you article on DIGG for one main reason:

Attending 1 single conference changed my entire life within the span of 3 months … and now less than a year later I am an under 30 female entrepreneur with the exclusive promotion contract for one of the top Business and Universal Law coaches in the world.

Entrepreneurs need to attend every conference possible – no less than 4 major seminars a year … and if you pick wisely, so much more can come out of these events than just the networking … which is phenomenal too!

Thank you for your straight forward advice – this point needs to be made in just this fashion.

Warmly,
Erin.

Thanks so much for the advice, Wendy.

I’m trying to convince my Mrs. that we should go to SOBCon in ‘09, as this year’s isn’t going to work for us.

At any rate, you make a great point about a conference sending folks home with a specific plan of action. That’s a value add that doesn’t come about very often.

An interesting distinction you make Wendy between Sobcon and Unleashed and BlogWorld etc conferences.
I like the take home action style, although at this point Blog World is the only one on the Horizon for me in USA this year.
We will have out 2nd Aussie on in August. I think I need a large windfall and higher profile so I get invited to speak
