Early Bird Rates for Affiliate Summit East 2014 Will…

by Shawn_Collins

I regularly see emails, Tweets, blog posts, and Facebook messages from conferences stating that they will be extending their early bird rates.

Well, just to be 100% clear about it, our deadlines are firm for early bird, and anything else we do with a deadline attached.

Some people (procrastinators) lash out at us for adhering for our posted dates and rules, and despite their best efforts, they are not successful in getting exceptions.

In the event that our registration system had an outage, we would work something out, but fortunately that has not been an issue.

Anyhow, the deadline to register for Affiliate Summit East 2014 at the early bird rate is May 16, 2014.

Now that we have this out of the way, be sure to get your registration(s) in the system by May 16, 2014 to get the best rate.

Also, reserve your room at the New York Marriott Marquis before the group rate is gone (July 18, 2014 or a sell out, whichever comes first).
