You're absolutely right. The scare you into using my law firm and buy my traffic seminars are getting old. IMO the newbie type seminars are great for those just being exposed to the industry for the first time. (YNotBob hosted a great one at the Qwebec show). However, the industry also needs seminars for those who aren't new to the industry.
We have done NATS seminars the past two years at the Jan Internext shows and least year we even setup a classroom style booth on the show floor, but with the lack of a crowd it didn't create as much buzz as we had hoped. Feedback from those who did attend however was that they did walk away with a lot of good information.
I'd like to expand the concept at other upcoming shows. We'll be talking with the organizers of '07s shows and see what we can do. We'd like to run both NATS and CARMA seminars. Both basic and advanced. Hopefully we will be able to accomplish it how we hope to.
