Affiliate Summit East 2011 Photo Recap
I’ve been back from New York since Thursday and I can easily say I’m still not fully recovered. I’m always surprised at how exhausted I am after one of these shows, but given the fact that I work at home in relative calm and sedation, 3-4 days of getting up early, talking all day, walking all day, and going to bed late can really take it’s toll.
I finally just got all 250+ photos I took from Affiliate Summit and the surrounding events I attended up onto Flickr today. So for now, instead of writing a long recap of words, I’ll share with you a recap in pictures. You can see all the pictures in my Affiliate Summit East 2011 Set on Flickr.

Affiliate Marketing Fanatics – A couple of hyper-caffeinated affiliate marketers (Mike Buechele) and (Trisha Lyn Fawver) talk about all things Affiliate Marketing. From blogging to branding, social media to search, video and more!
You’ve come to love it – our interviews! This go-round we’re interviewing speakers at the upcoming Affiliate Summit East 2011 at the New York Hilton in New York, NY. Mike’s a busy beaver and needs a break, so my co-host for this episode is the awesome Eric Nagel! Today we’re chatting with John Monarch about his origins in affiliate marketing & his “Ask the Expert” topic “High Risk Merchanting – Management and Risk Mitigation”. John is the President of Monarch Holdings LLC. In this episode we discuss:
- John’s origins in the Physics world and his transition into affiliate marketing.
- Some fellow former physicists Karen Garcia & Brad Waller.
- Merchants in certain niches need to be aware if their space is considered “high risk” by the banking industry (like smaller travel merchants).
- John’s ready to talk to merchants about their banking and how to avoid charge backs and keep their rates at a reasonable risk level.
- The difference between a charge back and a refund. A charge back, whether won or lost, still counts against a merchant’s charge back number.
- Put John’s discussion on your Affiliate Summit Schedule! Monday August 22nd, 5:00 – 6:00 pm in the Networking Space.
- Follow John on Twitter: @papajohn56
- Show some love to today’s co-host Eric Nagel! Blog: EricNagel.com & Twitter: @esnagel

Affiliate Summit West 2011 in Pictures #ASW11
So, I found out what was wrong (I guess). It seemed my installation of WP Unlimited was severely outdated (pay attention to those update release emails, people)! I updated it and low & behold, all of a sudden today I can create the album using NextGEN Gallery!
Without further ado since it’s been a whole month since Affiliate Summit West 2011, please enjoy my pictures from the show. As you may be able to tell, I took notes via taking photos of the slides during the Drew Eric Whitman keynote. I forgot my notebook 🙂

Please leave comments letting me know if this was valuable to you… or just commenting on any of the photos! They can also be viewed on Flickr in my Affiliate Summit West 2011 Set.
