I just returned from Atlanta where I attended (and taught 4 sessions) at the 6th "NAMS" Niche Affiliate Marketing workshop.
As always, it was a fabulous weekend. Quite a few members of my Private Brainstorming Group attended as well, so we had a chance to hang out and brainstorm in person. 😀

You've probably heard me talk about NAMS before. It's a 3-day hands-on event that happens twice a year in Atlanta, every January and August. The price is going up dramatically for direct event tickets, but there's a new model in place now that makes much more sense for anyone that wants to get involved...
Note: the next live event will be February 10-12, 2012 in Atlanta
While you were able to get a ticket in the past for as low as $197 (with a coupon code), the current rate for future events is $497. However, if you are a NAMS Member, you'll now get the discounted rates for each event twice a year.
In addition to that you'll receive ongoing access to training & support plus bonuses, accountability groups, and membership to the private community for open discussion & assistance.
You can now join MyNams for only $9.70/month, using the current promo code: MyNAMS90. What a steal! The price will be increasing incrementally, so you'll want to join in now to get locked in to this incredibly low rate. 😉
The next live event is coming up in February, and will be held in Atlanta again. This is a great opportunity to get hands-on training on all levels of Affiliate Marketing and Internet Marketing. Since it's workshop style, you'll actually get a chance to implement things you learn right on the spot - while you still have the instructors on hand to brainstorm with you and help you.
I teach in the Beginner's Rooms simply because that's where my passion lies, but there are several levels of more advanced training & advanced masterminds available too. In the Beginner's sessions we help you with every aspect of getting your online business off the ground, including setting up your first site - and having it live online - before the end of the first day!
I'll let some of the NAMS 6 Attendees tell you about their experience, in their own words, including their take-aways and achievements over the 3-day weekend, in the comment section below.
It's not JUST a great hands-on workshop where you can learn and implement (with help!), but it's also a great place to socialize with others who are working online.
We hang out after hours together, instructors and attendees alike, and a lot of brainstorming goes on throughout the weekend. This is just one small group from those that attended the August event - my Private Brainstorming Group - there are actually 150+ that attend and hang out for the weekend:
Keep an eye out for the comments from people who have already attended, but definitely make sure you take advantage of this special offer to join MyNams while the price is still under 10 dollars!
Check Out MyNams (Coupon Code: MyNAMS90)
I hope you'll join us, and participate, and consider attending one of the next two events - either in February or August 2012. I just returned home late last night from NAMS 6, but am already looking forward to NAMS 7 coming up in February!
Want To Listen In? You can download ALL of the audio recordings from the NAMS 6 Event for only $77 using the coupon code "IWASTHERE". Click Here for Details The coupon code & special price ends on Friday at 5pm Eastern, so act fast if you want the recordings! 😉
Best,
p.s. Being a member is the only way to get the discounted rate for the live events, and includes tons of support from Experts and Action-Takers. I encourage you to at least join up and check it out before the price goes up, and then make your own decision from there. 😉
About Lynn Terry
It was nice meeting you Lynn! NAMS was truly an amazing experience and I can't wait for the next one.
It was great meeting you as well, Gary! I look forward to seeing you again in January. 😀
Hi Lynn,
It was nice to meet you! Unfortunately, I never got to hear you speak as I was always in a different room. I guess there's the good and bad of having 4 different tracks. At least I get to listen to all the great speakers I missed when I get the audios. Yay!
I was truly impressed with the collective Internet marketing brain power at this event, and that people were so willing to help others.
Thanks,
Peggy
It was great to finally meet you, Peggy! I wish we'd had more time together, but hopefully next time at least. 🙂 I am anxious to listen in to the audios as well. I heard several people raving about particular sessions and can't wait to listen to them!
NAMS is just getting better every time and now with the new MyNAMS everyone gets to learn and grow their business and then get together twice a year to make connections and go to the next level.
Enjoyed teaching with you, Lynn. Congrats to all our beginners that got their very first website up and running!
I so enjoyed teaching with you, Chris. AWESOME job on the technical side of things on Day One. It was amazing how much was accomplished in the workshop between my case study and your how-to. Loved it!! 😉
My first time at NAMS and introduction to Affiliate and Internet marketing. It's a great opportunity to learn from the best. Thank you Lynn and Chris for your great sessions and all the knowledge you shared.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Bob 😀
Hope to see you again in January!
I had a wonderful time seeing everyone this weekend and I scribbled out a whole list of action items in my notebook during the event. I attended a variety of sessions from beginner to advanced and I picked up something new in each and every one of those sessions! That's probably my favorite thing about NAMS is the span of the knowledge that you find there and the willingness of everyone to help out and brainstorm together, even after we've had a few drinks 😉
It was really nice to see you again, Loretta - so glad you came!! I took tons of notes myself, and came back feeling inspired and motivated to dig into some new things. Can't wait till January! Did you say you were coming then too??
It depends on which dates the January event gets confirmed for - I think it's going to be the same weekend we have a wedding to attend so I might just get the recordings of that one. But, definitely won't miss August next year!
David is booking it at the same venue and the dates will be February 10-12. He moved it back a couple weeks (usually in January) so that we could book the same hotel we were just in. Hope that works with your schedule! 🙂
Oh boy, every time I attend NAMS I'm amazed. I went in with a few objectives and came back with a lot of great ideas and even more things that were totally unexpected but will be life changing I'm sure.
Everyone is so generous with their expertise and I was glad I could help quite a few people get some things they had been frustrated with accomplished before they left NAMS. The really cool part is to see someone without a website/blog leave there with one and is now blogging.
Hmm what else did I take away....I always knew it but you, my friend are amazing and I heard all weekend that you have made a huge impact on many lives there (including my own).
Kathleen Gage rocks! From her I learned that I need to take more risks, failure is exciting and I am here to serve. She is so inspirational, I think NAMS needs her to present at the very end of the conference.
I learned so much from every session I attended, I couldn't begin to list it all.
This has been my favorite NAMS yet. I hung out most of the time in the 200 room (since that where I was speaking Friday and Saturday) and was blown away by the presentations. Took quite a few notes and have a list of action items to complete in the coming weeks.
I also enjoyed Terry Dean's presentation in the 400 room quite a bit and loved Kathleen Gage's keynote. She helped me clarify exactly what my vision for Affiliate Treasure Chest is.
The networking was also excellent and I find it helps to come to each and every NAMS to build and solidify relationships.
Do you get many attendants from overseas at NAMS?
Apart from anything else, the weather has to be better in Atlanta than it would be in the UK during February!
Lynn, it was great to meet you and so many others from the private brainstorming group whom I'd previously only talked to online. It kinda felt like a family reunion - minus the crazy uncle and feuding siblings.
All the workshop presenters were outstanding. I think NAMS is an incredible value. Not only do you attend an awesome event, but you get the audios of all the workshop sessions that you couldn't attend live. AND...you get to personally meet and interact with the presenters and get to know them personally.
I'm in the process of downloading all the workshops to my iPod, and making my plan of action for next steps I need to take.
Great event! I was great meeting you, Lynn at my first NAMS. All the instructors were wonderful and willing to help folks at every level!
Thanks for pointing out the "new stuff" going on with Google - I felt like I was learning from the very start of the next big thing (I probably felt that way since you were teaching it!)
I hope you can make it in Feb - I look forward to going back won to Atlanta for NAMS 7!
Be Well.
Paul.
Was thinking of you all over the weekend. Wish I could've made it. I heard the new venue was really nice too.
Yes I am ready to join the next NAMS event but I belong to another continent of the world. Can you guide me in detail how far off people can learn from next event.
That's the great thing about the new MyNAMS. Much of the training will be accessed virtually through weekly webinars, downloadable content and replays of the live event sessions. Who knows... the live events could be offered thru streaming video in the future.
Hey Lynn,
Both my hubby and I had a great time at NAMS. It was also great meeting you Lynn and the members of the Elite group 🙂
Every session of the workshop had so much to offer, from ideas and strategies to the personal tips and tricks that instructors so freely shared with us.
Terry Dean and Kathleen Gage were awe inspiring with their presentations. They personally gave me some things to think about with taking the next steps and moving forward with my business.
Kathleen inspired me to believe in myself, show gratitude for everything, even the disappointments and to serve others.
I look forward to attending NAMS once again in February and connecting with new friends and mentors.
