Mark your calendar, because in just a few weeks there is a big weekend workshop happening in Atlanta, GA that you're going to want to attend!
www.nicheaffiliatemarketingsystems.com
David Perdew is putting on this live event so that you can learn Niche Affiliate Marketing from some of the top affiliate marketers in the industry. Unlike a conference where you listen and take notes, this event will include live hands-on workshops so that you can implement the strategies you learn on the spot.
And here's a huge plus... I'll be there to help you personally 😉
Date: Jan 30 - Feb 2, 2009
Location: Crowne Plaza Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia
Airport: Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport
Details: www.nicheaffiliatemarketingsystems.com
This workshop is completely different from anything else out there. The four main leaders - Willie Crawford, Mark Hendricks, Jeff Herring, and Alex Sysoef - will do 60-90 minutes teaching a technique.
Afterwards everyone breaks into small groups (based on niche interest) and will spend 2 to 2.5 hours implementing those techniques.
We'll all get to work together - creating, promoting, and making sales that weekend!
I'll be leading one of those groups. I'll also be staying at the conference hotel for the duration of the event, so it will be a great opportunity to talk one-on-one during breaks or over dinner.
What better way to start the New Year and kick off 2009 with a bang?!
The early-bird special is still available, at only $197 for the entire workshop. You simply cant get that kind of hands-on training and personal assistance for that price anywhere else...
I hope to see you there!
Best,
p.s. Once you register, leave a comment below and let us know you'll be there. Be sure to include your Twitter ID in your comment if you have one, so we can all stay in touch 😉

About Lynn Terry
If only I lived near in Atlanta, I will definitely not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity of attending the seminar.
This event sounds so great! I am going to work really hard to try to get there! The gears are already spinning like mad in my head - trying to figure out how to make it happen!
Oh Lynn I was already hoping to go to this, and now I just have to!
I did not know until now that you were going to be there, so there is even more reason for me to try to get serious and make this happen!
That price is probably too cheap! Of course it would be a different matter if when we get there we are just physically placed in front of a bunch of "landing pages"! I can't see that there could possibly be any genuine A-Z content here.
Can you tell me that each of these speakers is not going to use the seminar as their private landing page to sell yet another $497 program?
I'd be really upset if I traveled 2000 miles just to sit in front of a pile of landing pages. Heck... I can do that right here at my laptop. I think I get a landing page every 4 hours from Filsaime!
I'm so excited! I am actually going to this! It was between this & Blissdom09 (wish I could afford both). Having Lynn & Willie Crawford at this & the fact that it's a hand's on event, is what swayed me towards this event. I figure I will have more of an opportunity to learn at this event, just hope it's not all over my head.
oh, forgot, my twitter ID is http://twitter.com/CathyBend
Lynn & I are already following each other but for anyone else who is coming, please follow me & I'll follow back 🙂
Lynn - I am so excited that you're coming to this workshop. I'm honored that you accepted a role in leading a small group.
The whole weekend is going to be great, but one thing that I'm really looking forward to is the Saturday night session on creating autopilot traffic. Of course, as you know and teach so well, the best product without traffic is just a really good failure 🙂
We'll make sure that doesn't happen. And as you said, we won't be just talking about it, but implementing it on the spot.
Thanks again.

Hi Nick,
I have nothing to sell at this event myself. Of course, I'm just leading a workshop group - not speaking - but I'll let David speak for the rest.
I attend events on a regular basis. Some are pitch-fests, some are pitch-free, some are high dollar to attend and some are no-cost to attend.
Last month I attended an event in vegas that cost $10,000 head - and didnt even walk into the conference room. To be fair, I was there on personal invite so I didnt pay $10k, but I did spend some cash flying across the country and staying in the hotel. Anyway, at most events, you'll get your money's worth - and then some - just through the connections & conversations you have there.
That said, this particular event is going to be a hands-on workshop, not your typical seminar setting.
Looking forward to it David! See you in a few weeks 😉
"Can you tell me that each of these speakers is not going to use the seminar as their private landing page to sell yet another $497 program?

Hey Nick - I hope you don't mind me responding to this too. No doubt each of the four experts will have something to offer - they're online marketers - but I've made this perfectly clear to them...this is an educational opportunity, not a selling opportunity. And they still agreed to come 🙂
If you notice who I've invited, these people are incredibly generous. They truly understand that the best marketing opportunity is to be incredibly helpful.
If anyone sells anything, it will probably be me. After all, I've created a system called the Niche Affiliate Marketing System. But even I'm not requiring anyone to buy anything.
Saturday morning, I'll give everyone 1 month free access to my Niche Widget, Niche Mall, Niche Gold and Niche Simple systems.
The four main speakers will teach you techniques. I'm providing tools.
Here's my goal: 100% of everyone in attendance will make money that weekend whether they have a list, a product, or any of the required tools.
And you're right - the price is way too low.
But this is the first event. If we're successful (and it already looks really good...), I'm planning three events per year.
And the price will go up with each.
Glad you're interested.
David Perdew
David, I'm grateful the price is relatively low. I'm a single wahm & this will be a stretch for me financially with air travel, hotel, meals, etc. The only way I could do it is to have the price this low. Any higher & it would be out of the question for me.
Thanks for making it affordable for the people who really need it this type of training!
Thanks Cathy -
That's exactly what I was shooting for 🙂 Have a great holiday.

Hello Lynn,
David says: "Here’s my goal: 100% of everyone in attendance will make money that weekend whether they have a list, a product, or any of the required tools."
So is he saying as longs as you have the required tools David is providing but you have no product or list there's a very good chance of making sales...considering you put the effort? Also the registration page still lists the special price even though the site says it will change after December 12, 2008. Please clarify.
Thanks,
Maurice
Maurice, I can help with the price part. The special price for the workshop is still in effect but I'm not sure if the the special rates for the hotel are since I haven't called them yet.
Thank you kindly Cathy and hopefully the second part of my question will be answered. I like your blog and I see butterflies...exactly what my ex likes...time to get some.
Thanks again,
Maurice
Boy, that sure sounds great!
Now just do it in Boston too. : (
Pleeeease??
Hey Maurice,
Yes, that is what David said above - and you hit the nail on the head with the #1 requirement: putting forth the effort. Unlike most conferences or seminars, this will be a hands-on opportunity to both learn AND implement. Priceless in my opinion, as hands-on is the best way to "get it" and really get motivated to go home and put it into action.
Here's hoping this approach is seen lots more in 2009!
It's long overdue and just makes sense.
Thank you very much Lynn for the clarification and Yes---I agree with Dan more of these approaches are much better and makes much more sense.
I agree with you both, and have plans for such through my sites & work in the coming year. Planning to become more interactive with tips & advice for practical application & implementation. Should make for some great content & cool success stories!
Hey - thanks everyone for the questions and the validation!
Two things:
1) Yes, the price is still in effect. I renegotiated the hotel deadline to be Jan 12. So I moved the deadline for this price to that date as well. On Jan. 13, it jumps to $497. I haven't changed the salespage yet...thanks for pointing that out.
2) Maurice - that's exactly what I'm saying. Here's a very simple example. Go to http://www.Niche-Mall.com and click around. Do not try to buy the bundle on the front page yet though, that won't be live for a few days...in test mode now.
There, you will find nearly 1400 products in nearly 100 different niches. We're adding more all the time.
This is the site we present to the public. As a member, you get access to the seller site which is instant commission to your PayPal account - 50% or 100% depending on your membership level.
As Lynn's followers, you know the value of affiliate marketing. You also know it's the quickest way to make money online. My tools are there for you to get started immediately!
So, yes, the goal is to make money by Sunday night even (and maybe especially) if you haven't made a nickel yet.
And one last thing. There's several reasons this workshop system isn't the standard.
- It's risky. It requires attendees to put in the effort. Every marketer knows that less than 10% of the people EVER do anything with the tools they purchase. I'm counting on 100% participation.
- It's a long-term business arrangement. Most "seminars" are pitchfests where the marketers and speakers only concern is separating you from your money. In three days, a successful seminar pitchfest can rake in 6 figures. This type of workshop will destroy that old model if it's successful.
- If you want to see it in Boston or any other city, you have to do what Lynn and several others here have done and that's to support this one and send all of your friends to Lynn's blog to read this interaction and encourage them to sign up as well.
Hope that helps. Look forward to seeing you there.

This workshop sounds fantastic! I wish I was able to attend. So many seminars are just fluffy open bars, but this sounds like a real get in there and get things done type of program!
Hi Lynn,
I have registered for the conference. I have a ton of Marriott points from over the years, so am staying at the nearby Renaissance Marriott, but don't anticipate that as any problem. Since I have been following you for a while and respect your integrity and knowledge, I would love to be in your group. Consider this a formal request! :0)
I expect I will fly from Chicago. Anyone driving down from here?

Looking forward to the conference.
Bill
Wish I could be there. It sounds great. I know you will probably take great notes on everything.
Many Blessings,
Dawnaurora
@Dawn- Maybe even with my Livescribe Smartpen 😉
I look forward to meeting you, Bill - just followed you on Twitter. See you in Atlanta!
Hi Bill,
I followed you too. Look forward to meeting you!
Ok, who else is joining us????? The more, the merrier!
I'm in like Flynn!
I've decided to fly down to ATL and make the investment in myself to finally make my 1st dolla during this workshop.
Come on Dan let's rep' Boston---I've got a double bed reserved for you buddy if not I'm more than willing to split the hotel stay with anyone who'd like to--->>Email me at carpediem1994 at gmail dot com.
Peace!
Yay! I'm so glad you are coming too Maurice. I think we will be glad we did.
I made my plane reservation today & as soon as some more funds transfer over from paypal, I'm making the hotel reservation.
This is only the 2nd biz conference I have ever been too so I am really excited! Can you tell?
Yeaaah! Your one excited sista and looking forward to meeting you. Hopefully, we'll be in the same group and vibe off of each others energy.
I feel you on the funds part. I'm actually using craigslist, and hospitals to do research studies as well as focus groups to earn the cash to go on this biz trip.
Hey, me and my mother Julie Anna both want to attend the seminar, we're going to be signing up here soon...
Was just wondering, is there an age limit? I am a 16 year old, just making sure that this is acceptable.
Anyway, look forward to working, learning, and sharing with you all!
-Michael
http://FamilyBusinessIdeas.com - Webmaster
That would be awesome, Michael! I remember when you guys signed up at the SSWT Forum recently, so it would be great to meet you both.
David - any problem with the age limit?
Hi Lynn
I just registered for the workshop!!
I am so excited to be able to do this and meet you and some of my SSWT friends.
I just know this is going to be what it takes to get me moving forward!

Jean 🙂
Michael -
16! That's awesome. I wish schools were required to teach entrepreneurial studies...
But since they don't, of course we'll do our best for both you and your mother.
Cathy, Jean, Maurice - I'm really looking forward to seeing you there to. Be sure to get your hotel reservations as soon as possible.
Thanks.
dp
Hi David, I got my hotel reservation today so I'm good to go!
I love it that a 16 yr old is into this. My 18 yr old is a natural entrepreneur, I'd love for him to go too but too expensive for both of us.
Hey Jean, I added you as a friend on twitter. So glad you are coming too!
Thanks Cathy, I am following you too on twitter. This is my second live event too, soo excited I can't stand it.
David I do have my reservations. 🙂
Hey David,
Already had my reservations booked the other day. And yes. This type of hands -on learning should be mandatory for schools.
See you guys and I hope its going to be warm in ATL!
Lynn -
Excuse the interruption...Did you get my note about Friday at the workshop?
You'd make your subscribers here really happy if you say "YES"!
David
Oh, sounds fun! 🙂
Me and my mom (Julie Anna) just registered for the conference, we are calling to make reservations at the hotel today!
I'm excited about meeting everyone and learning with you all 🙂
Excellent Michael -
Looking forward to seeing you there.
And I'm going to let another little cat out of the bag - Lynn's agreed to speak on Friday afternoon 🙂
I'm really excited about this! I've heard nothing but great things about Lynn from some of the top people in the business, so I think this is a coup to get to her to share her expertise.
David
I'm so glad you & your mom are joining us Michael! Too bad I cant bring my son Ryan to give you another teen to hang out with during the breaks.
That is so great Lynn is teaching on Friday! That alone makes it worth it to me to come!
Yes! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and hearing Lynn speak. Hey Dan R., where you at man?
This is getting more exciting by the minute. Registration momentum building. Lynn speaking. Newbie like me hearing the first jingle of cash in PayPal (in THIS direction instead of the other). David, do you have any recommendations to prepare for the workshop? Gonna wear a shirt with easy roll-up sleeves. Cheez, have to try to keep up with a 17 year old, Michael!!
Bill
Bill -
You're going to like what I've got to say I think...
On Monday, a couple of things begin.
1) I've got a 10-Part Video training series that I'll start for folks who have signed up already - free 🙂
And
2) Next week, we'll continue with some intense interviews with experts on my BlogTalkRadio program at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/DavidPerdew including and hour with Lynn.
I'm getting excited too:)
dp
Lynn I am seriously considering coming for the workshop or definitely coming for your meetup. It sounds like you have got alot going on for the meetup at that time also - if you're in the workshop will there be time to take advantage of the workshop with you?
Nan
Nan -
I can't speak for Lynn, but we've built in two hours of informal get together for everyone on Friday evening at a welcome event. (Cash bar - sorry, have to keep the price low.)
And the formal informal closes at 9 - in other words, the bar shuts down. But the facility will be open all evening.
Saturday evening, we're planning a traffic generation panel - it will go late.
We've also scheduled generous lunch breaks for people to get together as well.
dp
You guys ROCK - cant wait to get there and hang out with all of you! And Nan, I will be every bit as accessible as time permits. I will definitely be at the lunches, dinners and all of the get-togethers during the weekend 😉
Looking forward to it!
Thanks so much, David. High anticipation for the video series and the talk radio. Will be looking for ideas and to-do's in prep for the workshop. I will do everything I can to make this as productive as possible (serious need to build an income stream) and am certainly expecting and challenging the workshop leaders/speakers to do the same. Look out Atlanta!
Does anybody know if it is limited enrollment and if so, how many? What additional costs would be involved?
I can answer this Ann -
We're limited to 125 people - we're getting closer, but no danger yet. I'm REALLY impressed with the number of people already signed up though. About 75 % of those who go to these things sign up at the last minute.
Here's a quick budget (reg fee and hotel goes up significantly after 1/12/09)
Registration Fee: $197
Hotel (Thurs thru Mon): $400
Meals & Incidentals: $200
Airport shuttle: $0
And for the first month:
Software tools / infrastructure: $0
1200 Products in 82 niches to sell at 100% commission: $0
Hosting for your websites: $0
Blog Installation Package: $0
Article Templates: $0
Website builder (15-Day trial): $0
Do the math: this is THE least expensive, most hands-on workshop you'll find this year.
Revenue to you: How much money have you decided to make?
That was what my mentor ask me when I was struggling a few years ago. It's an important question...
One more thing... If you have any reach at all in affiliate marketing now - and being on Lynn's list you should - you can become an affiliate of this workshop after you sign up and earn your way to the workshop.
David
By the way, no further purchases are required.
