Lead Quality Summit Update…Las Vegas
I just wanted to follow up with those of you that have been following my blog. As I posted in an earlier blog, I was in Las Vegas from Sept 16th-19th at a TARGUSinfo lead scoring conference. I was able to host one of the breakout sessions and discussed the “challenges traditional schools face when going online”. I have written a more extensive version of this breakout session for your reading enjoyment if you click the link.
In addition, Shaun Redgate and myself published a new article that just hit eWeekly.com.
Overall, I think my session went very well. Attendance was not as high as I would have liked, but the content I delivered was certainly valuable to those looking to go online, those struggling with growth if they are already online and for lead providers who have clients that may be facing growth issues. The Mandalay Bay Resort was an awesome setting for a conference and I would not hesitate to go back there for another conference. TARGUSinfo was very hospitable to me and they really made the trip enjoyable. They added some valuable touches to our stay that certainly made the trip worth going.
I had never been to Las Vegas before so for me there was a lot to see. I would summarize Las Vegas like this: to those who don’t gamble (like myself) it was a great venue for a conference because there were plenty of restaurants and shows to take in during the evening hours after the conference. However, I don’t think I would take my personal vacation time to visit Las Vegas because I don’t think I would have enough to do without the gambling part.
Overall rating of the Las Vegas and TARGUSinfo Conference, 9 out of 10.
