On March 30, Indianapolis joined other cities across the world in the first ever Affiliate Summit Meetup Day event. Although we were a small group, it was a great opportunity for the newly-forming Indy affiliate community. We had a couple of other people pop in and out, but our four main attendees as pictured were Jim McIntosh (@mcintosh33), Tricia Meyer (me!) (@sunshinetricia), Blake Ensign (@BeSTForum), and Eric Jones (@ericrjones1).
Because affiliate marketing is just starting in Indianapolis and we have already had a couple of “introductory” presentations in the last 2 months, I decided to change up the official agenda a little bit. After introductions and order taking, we spent 30 minutes discussing hot topics in affiliate marketing including: use of social media, the Farmer/Panda Google Update, and favorite affiliate marketing resources.
Following the round table discussion, we each talked about where we are in our affiliate marketing efforts, what our goals are for the next 6 months, and how we can work together to expand the affiliate marketing community in our area.
I truly enjoyed the evening and was happy to spend some time with the guys learning more about where each of them is going. In the spirit of Affiliate Summit, it was a great networking experience that I am sure is going to lead to good things in our industry in the coming months.

It was Tricia’s photo that really was a catalyst for the creation of this video. Hope folks find the content valuable.
