Traffic ccTLD’s Amsterdam, My thoughts! (Part 2)

Picking up from where I left off in Traffic ccTLD’s Amsterdam, My thoughts! (Part 1)

I have been asked by a few people if I thought flying all the way from Perth to Amsterdam (which is about a 24 hour trip including layovers) was worth it?

I think the answer comes back to the type of person you are, If you are the type of person who is shy, sticks to themselves and only goes to the sessions in the day then it may not be the best investment of your time and money but you may just pick up one thing from a speaker that could be very important to your business.

If you are the type of person who is outgoing, like to meet new people and network then you would be crazy not to go as you will learn more in the first day (especially if you are new to domaining) than you could imagine.

This is what these seminars and conferences always come down to for me, THE OTHER PEOPLE ATTENDING! I look back over the past 5 years at some of the conferences I have been to and some of my closest friends and business associates have come from them. Even though I live thousands of miles away from them we always keep in tough on a regular basis through the magic of the internet and programs such as Skype www.skype.com

The one thing I am sure of is that everyone who attended Traffic ccTLDs Amsterdam left with something different, new business connections, new ideas of how to do business, new friends and a few hangovers as well LOL but the important thing now is what is done with this new found information or business associates. If nothing is done then you may as well not have attended. Massive action is the key, act now while the information and inspiration are still fresh (I am speaking to myself here as well LOL)

One thing I did learn is that Howard Neu has a great voice as he demonstrated on the second evenings dinner event at West India House where a great time was had by all I am sure.

So thanks to all the people like Rick Latona, Howard Neu & Rick Schwartz for putting on these events and bringing people together from across the globe to share their information and view points regarding domain names. I still consider myself a very small fish in a very large pond but I am having a great time learning from everone else and hearing their stories. Thanks to all of those people who I talked with at Traffic ccTLDs and until the next time we meet I wish you all great fortune and happiness.

  1. Good points. You get most from networking. If you want to go to domain conference only to listen to lectures and see the auction – then don’t do it unless you have unlimited time and money to spend and don’t know how to do it ;)
