Before we head out to Las Vegas, here are a couple things you might want to know about Blue Phoenix Media, Inc. before meeting us at LeadsCon. We have an extensive list of 200+ advertisers and 4,000+ active publishers that make up our affiliate network. We built and own 20+ exclusive web properties to maximize brand awareness as well as Education Portals that generate quality leads through our proprietary lead generation technology. Education, Consumer Products, Health and Diet are the top performing verticals however, we also offer campaigns in over 20 other verticals. And lastly, we have a Coreg platform to serve into registration pages to monetize websites.

Now that you know a bit more about us, we think it’s time for you to meet the Blue Phoenix Media, Inc. team! Our CEO Amy Sheridan and COO Malaika Schmidt, founders of Blue Phoenix Media, Inc. along with the team of affiliate managers will be setting up shop at LeadsCon. If you’d like to schedule a meeting in advance, shoot us an email at meetings@bluephoenixmedia.com, otherwise just stop by Table T-12 February 23-24, at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. See you there!

The conference started on Saturday, January 16th, but the party really got started at the meat market on Sunday. The BPM table was one of the most visited all day (it helped that we were next to a big screen TV playing the Jets – Chargers game). Some more numbers to describe the meat market: 4 BPM team members, 1 table, 6 hours of talking = 4 lost voices. We met some great people and look forward to working with a lot of them.

After closing down the meat market, we rushed to get ready for dinner, and the affiliate summit tip off party, co-sponsored by who else? Blue Phoenix Media of course. The party, at the hardwood suite in the palms, was a hit, with 700 people in attendance before we closed the doors.

After the party, it was time to get down to business. Monday and Tuesday brought meetings, lots of meetings. We’ve put many names to faces and started building some lasting relationships. And if we weren’t starting a new relationship, we were catching up with some of the individuals and companies we’ve been working with for years.

If you were at the conference and we didn’t get to meet you, please drop us a line at meetings@bluephoenixmedia.com, we’d love to get to know you, don’t worry, we’re a friendly bunch. And if you weren’t at the conference (don’t worry, we won’t hold it against you), drop us a line as well.

I’m not sure that this means what I hope it means: that the economy is actually on its way back to a full recovery. I feel confident, however, in the idea that performance-based marketing is really recovering from the global recession faster than traditional advertising and most other industries.

In any event, there has been a lot of buzz in the industry about Affiliate Summit West. Some of what you’ll hear and read is in anticipation of the parties. Most, though, is in anticipation of reconnecting with former clients, vendors and colleagues in a much more certain and positive commercial climate.

  The Blue Phoenix Media team will be at the Affiliate Summit West 2010 in Vegas!  This event will be fully loaded with experts, vendors, affiliate merchants and networks ready to share their expertise and create money making relationships that will help affiliates rack up on the big bucks for 2010 and so on.  Some of the speakers include Larry Adams from Google, Dave Gaetano of the New York Times and the CEO of Offers.com, Steve Schaffer.  Some other companies that will be in the building are Facebook, Affiliate Future, Resource Nation and Hub Spot. 

Yes, these speakers and companies are fabulous movers and shakers of the online marketing world; however, it’s only right that we take a few seconds to boast a few of our many attributes that we feel you should know about before meeting us at Affiliate Summit West.  We’re known for our affiliate network which consists of over 200 advertisers and 4,000 publishers.  We’ve got our back end PHP server along with 20+ exclusive web properties to maximize brand awareness that we’ve built and own as well as various Education Portals that generate quality leads.  We offer campaigns in over 20 verticals which include Education, Consumer Products, Health and Diet, to name a few.  We also have a Coreg platform to serve into registration pages to monetize websites.

Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, our CEO Amy Sheridan and COO Malaika Schmidt along with their team of affiliate managers will be in full effect at Affiliate Summit.  If you’d like to schedule a meeting, shoot us an email at Meetings@BluePhoenixMedia.com, otherwise just stop by Table #7 on Sunday January 17, at the Affiliate Meet Market, Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Amazon A-E
Time: 12:00pm – 6:00pm .  See you soon!

Aside from that, there was great interest in our web properties from both the publisher and advertiser’s standpoints. Numerous of publishers asked us about our exclusive deals that they can’t get from anyone else in this industry, our ability to directly work with them and our capability to give direct feedback. We got the opportunity to speak with countless advertisers about how we will build more direct relationships and score more quality leads for them. Many showed interest in our Biz-Op and Education offers which include CollegeConduit.com, MakeGoogleBucks.com, Strayer University and Kaplan University to name a few. Ad:Tech truly gave publishers and advertisers the platform to learn about the many facets of Blue Phoenix Media such as our diligent staff, proprietary lead generation technology and our web properties that we built and operate ourselves which, in turn, generate better lead and quality control for our advertisers.

How dare us discuss Ad:Tech without mentioning the parties! On Tuesday night we got down with our bad selves at the No Bull event at Johnny Utahs. No bull riding for us but the party was great. On Wednesday night we attended the Gevalia cocktail party at The Gates and the truffle pizza was out of this world. We went straight from the Gevalia party to the Money Maker party at Club Pacha and Slick Rick was…. *crickets*. Huge thanks to Infinite Traffic for sharing their VIP with us!

This year’s Ad:Tech NY event truly was a success for Blue Phoenix Media. It only makes us look forward to the upcoming Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas even more. The summit will be held at the Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino from January 17th-19th and we will be at table #7 at the Meet Market. If you’re going to be attending the Affiliate Summit and would like to schedule a meeting with us, please email meetings@bluephoenixmedia.com.
