Win a Gold Pass to Affiliate Summit West 2012

Posted on Oct 3, 2011 in Affiliate Marketing, Conferences & Networking, Contests |

ASEast07Miami-16In July of 2007 I attended my first Affiliate Summit in Miami.  It was a fantastic experience.  I learned so much, and that was certainly part of the chain of events in my wandering string of jobs to convince me that I liked this industry.  The following year at Affiliate Summit East in Boston, I made the decision that I wanted to continue in Affiliate Marketing and build a career rather than just meander along at different jobs.  Considering this is light years away from what I went to college for, that was a major decision in my life.

And attending Affiliate Summits helped solidify that for me.

So I want so spread the love and help someone else drive into this dynamic and awesome industry feet first.  So I’m giving away a Gold Pass to Affiliate Summit West 2012.  This year’s western version of the conference will take place January 8-10, 2012 at Caesars Palace Las Vegas, which I’m excited about since it’s one of the few larger hotels in Las Vegas that I’ve never once set foot into.  The Gold Pass will allow you access to the Meet Market, Exhibit Hall, Keynotes, Sunday educational sessions, and online access to all recorded session videos and PowerPoint presentations.  Right now we’re still in the Early Bird registration phase, so the Gold Pass is valued at $279 and after October 21st it goes up to $529, so winning this Gold Pass is definitely in your best financial interests!

Affiliate Summit East 2010 Silver Pass WINNER!

Posted on Jun 14, 2010 in Affiliate Marketing, Contests | 2 comments

About a month ago, I launched one of my best contests ever here, the chance to win a Silver Pass for Affiliate Summit East 2010.  ASE10 will be taking place in New York City at the New York Hilton.  I’ll be speaking on a panel called Podcasting 101 with Daniel M. Clark, Joe Magennis, & Lisa Picarille moderating.  I wanted people to think outside the box & get creative with their reasons why they wanted to go to the conference.  I read all the comments & put aside any personal relationships and went solely on the most creative comment, as I said I would!

And the winner is…

Daniel Chmielewski!

Daniel will be receiving a Silver Pass for Affiliate Summit East 2010 in New York City!  Dan, you know you’re pretty much required to fill a seat in our session on Sunday at noon, right? 🙂  Ladies & gentlemen, enjoy Daniel’s winning comment:

Hi Trish!

We haven’t met yet but obviously the contest was made for me. It all began when I was born.. the doctors said I came out with a map of the internet clenched between my tiny hands. Then growing up I was raised in the wild by computers and modems… every once in a while I’d catch a lead gen and rest satiated — those were good nights. When I was a teenager I was attacked by a group of rabid ringtones and barely made it out alive… I still get chills every time an SMS goes off in the distance. After my teen years I was called away to war in the 9-5 trenches where I’ve been counting the days until the time that I may return home… and you see, ASE is my ticket out of here, my one true chance at freedom — to live the life I was born to lead!

… Well that’s how I see it anyway

Thanks Daniel for thinking creatively – check your email for more details on how to register for Affiliate Summit & redeem your prize!

Runner Up

I also said I’d be giving a copy of Internet Marketing From the Real Experts to the second best entry.  The runner-up is Latease Rikard!  Look out for an email so I can get your address to send you the book.  Here’s her winning entry:

Hey Trisha…I want to go to Affiliate Summit 2010 because I will get to meet you. Now I can find out that you are not just some internet entity that I’ve been communicating with over the past couple of years. It will be like bringing my internet friend to life, and we will have control over it!

Congratulations to all the winners & stay tuned for more news about Affiliate Summit 2010 & another contest I’m working on ;).

I’m giving away a FREE Silver Pass to Affiliate Summit East 2010, the premier affiliate marketing conference.  You read correctly!  Affiliate Summit East 2010 is going down August 15 – 17th in New York City at the New York Hilton.  I will definitely be there, along with my cohorts from For Me To Coupon.  I hope to be speaking on a panel, but which panels will be on the agenda is still being determined.  I will also have an article appear in issue 11 of FeedFront Magazine, being distributed at the conference.

The Silver Pass is a $250 value and gives you access during the conference to the Affiliate Meet Market and Exhibit Hall, Keynotes; and access to the Affiliate Summit Social Network.  This pass will NOT give you access to any of the sessions taking place.  Remember from past shows, if you follow me here at TrishaLyn.com, I do post reviews of all the sessions I attend for your educational pleasure.

How To Win:

  2. Tweet out this message: Enter to win a Silver Pass to Affiliate Summit East at TrishaLyn.com http://bit.ly/winase10 #ASE10
  3. Subscribe to TrishaLyn.com
  4. Post a comment about why you want to go.  Be creative.  This is what will decide the contest!

The winner must have completed all four steps and the winner will be chosen by the best, most creative reason why you want the free pass.  The goal here is to think outside of the box.  In your comment, please link me to your tweet and be sure to comment with an email address I can easily reach you at, should you win.  All comments and tweets must be posted by June 11, 2010.  A winner will be announced on June 14, 2010.

Runner Up- Bonus To the second best entry, I’ll give you a paperback copy of Internet Marketing From The Real Experts, a compilation of articles written for FeedFront Magazine about all aspects of internet marketing, including mine!  US & Canada only for this particular runner up prize.

Here’s the inevitable fine print. Passes are non-transferable, so if you win the pass you have to use it for yourself.  Keep in mind that the winner must register for Affiliate Summit BEFORE passes sell out.  As well, if you win the contest, register, and are then unable to attend, you have to contact them to cancel.  If you don’t contact them to cancel and fail to check in at the conference, you won’t be eligible for any future complimentary passes from Affiliate Summit.  These are their rules, not mine, so you must abide.  Please enter only if you are not already registered and know you can attend, should you win.
