Why You Should Apply for a Scholarship to Affiliate…

Once again, Shawn Collins and I will be awarding scholarships when we return to New York City, this August for Affiliate Summit East 2012.

We will be sponsoring up to fifty Affiliate Summit Pay it Forward Scholarships for affiliates to attend the conference.

The goal of the scholarships is to make the education and networking experience of Affiliate Summit available to affiliates who might not otherwise be able to attend.

“The very first two sessions I attended were worth the entire conference for me. I came away realizing how much I still have to learn to achieve success.”

Each recipient of the Affiliate Summit Pay it Forward Scholarships will be awarded one VIP Pass (a $1,249 value) to Affiliate Summit East 2012, taking place at the Hilton New York on August 12-14, 2012.

VIP Passes include breakfast and lunch on Monday and Tuesday; admission to the Meet Market, Exhibit Hall, Keynotes, all educational sessions on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday; participation in the Newcomer program; access to all recorded session videos; and PowerPoint presentations.

“Having the pass allowed me to attend more of the workshops and to attend breakfasts and such. We could not have afforded that pass. That was appreciated so much.”
