Prepare for Affiliate Summit with FeedFront Magazine

by Missy Ward

FeedFront Magazine – the magazine for the futurists; the next-gen marketers; the early adopters in affiliate marketing.

Issue #1

Issue #2

Issue #3

A couple of years ago, Shawn Collins and I talked about creating a print magazine for Affiliate Summit. The idea was to provide free, relevant content to affiliate marketers and also promote the Affiliate Summit brand along the way.

Unfortunately, we are two entrepreneurs filled with tons of marketing ideas and not enough time to do them all. As such, with the limited bandwidth we had at that point, the idea was filed in the “Will Do One Day” pile.

Q1 of 2008 came around and the subject came up again. Fortunately, timing was much better and in April of 2008, Feedfront Magazine was born.

The goal of the magazine is to bring ideas, resources and opinions from Internet marketing innovators to our readership, before their next project or venture. In essence, feedback on the front end. (Hence the name “FeedFront”).

The first bimonthly issue hit mailboxes in June, 2008 and since then has taken on a life of its own. We are now at a solid 25k circulation, which increases from time to time with various partnership distributions at other events.

Our fourth issue, which is a 72-pager, will be mailed out in January and distributed at Affiliate Summit 2009 West and Linkshare Symposium West.

Whether you're just getting into the industry or an affiliate marketing old-timer, there's always something new to learn. Feel free to read the previous issues by clicking the FeedFront covers above.

You are what you read.

Tell Me When You’re Heading to Affiliate Summit and…

by Missy Ward

We're just about a month away from Affiliate Summit 2009 West in Las Vegas and I'm in crunch mode.

You know.. trying to keep tabs on all of you is a full-time job 😉

The last thing I want to do is miss seeing you. So here's how you can help me out and possibly win a Dell Inspiron Mini for yourself. (We're giving 3 of them away!)

If you're an Affiliate Summit 2009 West attendee:

1) Go to Twitter.com
2) Tell me when you're getting into Las Vegas for Affiliate Summit
3) Include #ASW09 in your Tweet.

[Example: I'm flying into Las Vegas for Affiliate Summit on January 9th. #ASW09]

On Wednesday, December 17th, 24th and 31st we'll select a random winner from the week's prior entries of eligible Tweets and ship them off their Dell Mini.

How simple is that?

So before you get too busy today, go head on over to Twitter and let me know when you're coming in.

I can't wait to see you!

(Don't want to Tweet. That's cool too. You can enter via postal mail by following the directions here).

Save the Boobies For a Chance To Win Prizes…

by Missy Ward

In late 2006, Shawn Collins and I made a pledge to raise money in innovative ways for various charities that assist children; help out the families of stateside and deployed servicemen and women; and fund breast cancer research – a cause that is close to my heart.

We’ve launched cause-related sites such as ShiptoTroops.com and AffiliateMarketersGiveBack.com; we’ve worn “unusual” sponsored logo-wear, held goofy contests; sold hugs; walked 120 miles; and together with Affiliate Summit attendees, we’ve raised over $127,000, since January, 2007.

All proceeds have gone directly to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters, March of Dimes, Susan G. Komen Foundation, Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation, and Operation Homefront.

At the upcoming Affiliate Summit in Las Vegas this January, we’ll be holding another one of our entertaining fundraisers. All money raised from these events will benefit the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

So far, we’ve collected $7,500 for our Staff T-shirt Sponsorship which my friends at Buy.at/Platform A so graciously picked up. I am honored to sport their logo on my shirt during the conference.

We will also be holding the first-ever Affiliate Triathlon, which will be held on Tuesday, January 13th at the Rio Hotel.

It is open to all athletes. (The term “athlete applies to anyone attending Affiliate Summit 2009 West).

It is a 3-event contest of skill, determination and dexterity… and destined to be filled with laughs.

The winning athlete (highest cumulative score across the three competitions) will be awarded their choice of:

One non-corner, 10′ x 10′ exhibit hall booth (value: $5,195) at Affiliate Summit East 2009.*

Four Platinum Passes (value: $4,996) for use at Affiliate Summit East 2009.*

*Either prize can be sold or transferred to another person and Affiliate Summit 2009 East, takes place in NYC on August 9-11, 2009.

The entry fee for the Affiliate Triathlon is $100, which is donated directly to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

If you're attending Affiliate Summit and you got the “skills” to compete, I urge you to register to participate in this fun event.
