London Affiliate Networking Event – July 2009

Just back in Bristol from an evening of netorking courtesy of 12 UK Affiliate Networks. Held at the Imbibe bar, there was well over 250 people in attendance throughout the evening, and thanks to Birthday Man Kevin Edwards from Affiliate Window for organising.

Was great to catch up with old faces, as well as meeting some new faces too. I think our a4uexpo stickers turned out to be a great way to remind all that were there last night about the Conference in October (there were some comedians who will not be named sticking them to the backs of attendees, which worked out well when they were queueing at the bar)

For those of you who have forgotten we were giving out a discount code for a4uexpo delegate passes, valid until the 14th August. Check your emails from the Affiliate Networking Event for the code or alternatively send us an email.

I was quite amazed how quickly the bar tab ran out last night, i’d only made it there twice in the first two hours and luckily overheard that the tab had just ended, as there was an unfortunate incident where one affiliate ordered about 10 3drinks not realising that he had to pay for them all - his face was a picture.

The food was very nice - BBQ outside with burgers, “spicy” chicken and sausages, along with potato salad and veg. Not too sure what was going on with the queue for the food however, don’t people get angry when they need to eat!!

Thanks to those networks who kept the drinks coming on their expense accounts :) - Next up for me is the a4uexpo roadshows in Manchester next Tuesday and Edinburgh next Wednesday. Register your place for free here - Commission Junction have kindly offered to place there card behind the bar
at the Manchester event for a while next week. Both roadshows are being held at The Living Room - getting there early? Vouchers available for dining there from our website restaurantvouchers.co.uk

Cheers for a good night, see those of you who are coming to Manchester on Tuesday
