AWE 2018…BERLLLLLL….Psyc. BARCELONA!

BARCA! BARCA! BARCA!

If you live under a rock, then you might not have heard…we've moved Affiliate World Europe to sunny and beautiful Barcelona, Spain!

Affiliate World Asia was of course, our biggest event to date. The amount of positive feedback that continues to pour in makes our cold, affiliate hearts tingle. We're so grateful to be able to provide everyone with a platform and venue to connect, do business and build lifelong friendships. In our industry, we spend so much time on our own, it's these moments that really bring purpose as affiliate marketers, agencies and ecommerce entrepreneurs to life.

I'd like to share with you guys some important items Re: Spain, just so you're prepared:

- Marriage: if you meet a local and decide he/she's the one, it's pretty easy to get married. Just head to the Civil Registry of Barcelona, bring your passport. Also, same sex marriages are cool, AW doesn't discriminate.
- Pets: if you own a bird and want to bring it along, just get its medical certificate up to date and translated into Spanish. How crazy would it be if someone was rocking a Macaw or Parrot on the exhibition floor? Disclaimer: Poultry is not considered a pet, so do not try to start a cockfighting gambling ring networking event, or if you do just buy them in Spain.
- Bars: Barcelona is home to the world's first beach ice bar. I'm plugging this because I want someone to throw a party here that we can all crash.

Now down to BUSINESS.

WHEN & WHERE?

Date: July 18th to 19th (Weds/Thurs, leaves the weekend for you to make it to Ibiiiiza)

Here's all the speakers we have announced so far and loads more to be released, subscribe here or like us on FB to stay up to date on all new speaker announcements.

NEW TO AFFILIATE WORLD?
Amazing, we live for blowing the new attendees minds. You've never experienced any conference like it – ask around.

Expect tradeshow floors, exhibitors' hall, speaker sessions, panels, parties, but at another level. STM level. We don't mess around - we put serious thought, effort, and money behind everything we do, so that you can rest easy that you've made the right investment coming. And that's exactly what it is, an investment. You are investing your time and money in yourself by attending, in which in-turn, you’ll gain new knowledge that will increase your ROI and broaden your industry connections with traffic sources, agencies and networks.

NETWORKING (Not Just Parties - but definitely those too)
Will there be parties? If you fall under the category of the "New to Affiliate World" I'll let that slide. The parties at Affiliate World Conference's make other affiliate conference events look like your Aunt's knitting night with her 70+ girl gang.

We throw parties. Our partners throw parties. There's pre-parties, after-parties, even parties that are still going from Bangkok!

Also, we're launching something new at Affiliate World Europe, mini-networking sessions during the show that are geared towards specific promotion methods and verticals. We're going to have some surprise guests join us for them too - stay tuned.

There’s already been 3 ticket increases since we released early bird passes, you won’t find passes cheaper than they are right now – do the right thing before they go up even more!

For the first time at Affiliate World, we're hosting specific networking sessions for attendees. Some of the past show data had leaned on more networking opportunities. We dug deep and have selected four topics we're focusing on that should have the most interest. They're going to be twice daily in the afternoon, limited capacity but with good turnouts we're going to look to scale for future shows.

Expect to see speakers, industry thought leaders and STM Mods at these! We're also making sure content on stage doesn't conflict with them, so you won't miss out on anything.

AWE OFFICIAL NETWORKING GALA ANNOUNCED - WEDS, JULY 18TH!

Time to lock it in your FB calendar. Remember Lotus Garden at AWA? Expect more of that. Much more.

One floor ^ from the conference hall. One hell of a view > of pure Barcelona beachfront. It's too easy, and by far best way to gear up for the night after the show ends for the day.

Head to the FB event page and lock it in: https://www.facebook.com/events/763057474082736/

Lotus Garden was pretty awesome, looking forward to how you plan to beat that


05-29-2018 03:41 PM #20 semrushaffteam (Member)

We are excited, SEMrush will be there too and this is our first Affiliate World Conference! I can't believe it has taken us this long! But as they say, better late than never

06-01-2018 10:01 AM #25 everad (Senior Member)

We can't wait for all those parties! Any ideas on Ibiza? If smth similar to STM Island is planned, there may be a risk. Risk that our sponsorship budget will heavily increase


06-01-2018 10:44 AM #26 maynzie (Moderator)

Will be there for sure!

Hugs, handshakes and lol's will be flowing on tap

I know everyone says it, but you just can not beat these events if you're looking to really make a career out of affiliate marketing or have a proper crack at it. It also shows how real it all is, there is a certain mythical sense to earning a living online but when you see it free flowing in reality before your eyes at these trade shows its like a motivation injection into your veins.


Oh and god the parties.. well if Chaz is kept on a leash the whole Conference would do everyone a favour we will all have less of a hangover and a bit more morality haha

Maynzie, the man, the myth, the legend - you watch your tounge. Everyone is encouraged to leave all leashes at home.

I had the pleasure to use the exhibitor interface last year.

It's super cool and intuitive. You just upload your assets and then it turns into what you see on the website and also the actual booth at the event!


06-06-2018 10:20 PM #31 matuloo (Legendary Moderator)

Nice, see you all at the C23 booth then fellas, should be there along with Amy


06-07-2018 02:27 AM #32 stackman (Administrator)

I'm really excited for the STM meetups this year, it's something brand new and we hope to throw more and more focused meetups every show.

This years STM Meetups:
A) Mobile App installs
B) Old school Email Marketing
C) The tried and true Lead Generation
D) Building a Brand around Ecommerce

The idea here is to only bring like minded people who are most interested in these topics to each meetup so you can really step up your networking, learn more, and build new relationships in the industries you're most focused in.

All these meetups will take place in a private section right within the market at AWE!


06-11-2018 03:11 PM #33 shift44 (Member)

See everyone at A25


06-12-2018 11:51 AM #34 SergeiGlaukus (Member)

Looking forward to meeting some like-minded members of the community in Barcelona. I still can't believe it when I hear affiliates say they've never been to a conference like this! Plus as has been alluded to, maybe we'll be there during the madness that will ensure should Spain win the WC.

Well, firing their manager a few days before the event doesn't seem like a good move towards becoming World Cup winners!

Hey Roman - email me we can get you sorted out chad@affiliateworldconferences.com


06-15-2018 09:40 PM #39 Trellian - Direct Search Network (Member)

It's coming up quick - just about one month left We had such a great time last year in Berlin and cannot wait to arrive in BARCA this year!

Make sure you save time to walk the exhibit hall and visit us at Stand A52. Or send us a message if you want to set a meeting in advance.
(We're
running a special show promo! )

For anyone on the fence, you will not regret coming to AWE! It's extremely well organized, and we met so many people who are serious about making money in affiliate marketing. In
fact, we are still doing business with a large majority of them to this day (one full year later).


06-22-2018 02:43 PM #40 revenuelab ()
