stfttThis past weekend I was able to attend the sold out “Survival Tactics For Tough Times” event in Atlanta, hosted by Mark Joyner and Matt Basak.  It was an all-star line-up of speakers including Mark and Matt, plus Shawn Casey, Marshall Sylver, Joe Sugarman, Ted Nicholas, Robert Allen, Bill Glazer and others.

I took copious notes, and was really inspired.  My favorite sessions were by Matt Basak (on JV partnerships), Robert Allen (on multiple streams of income), and Ted Nicholas (on copywriting).

But the vaue of these events goes waaaay beyond the speakers you hear. I got to meet up with a whole bunch of online friends, and network to meet new ones. I’ve been in contact with them already since arriving home, and I know it’s going to result in some great joint venture opportunities in the future.

It was definitely worth the 4 hours I spent sitting at Laguardia Airport in New York when my flight was cancelled and I had to wait for another one. It was worth every penny I spent. It was worth the time away from home, and the effort of going.

If you have the opportunity to get to an event in 2010, take it! Hope to see you there.
