1999 was my first.
But just in the 2000's I remember back in the day my schedule being packed at internext. Invites to dinners, parties, private dinners, private parties I had to juggle and try to go to what I could turning down more than I could handle. There were just so many meetings and things people wanted me at you'd literally make an appearance for 30 minutes and would have to move to the next just so you could try to fit everything in.
This year its rather sobering.. One dinner invite. (which i am really looking forward to and may be the only reason I'm going and very thankful) but thats it. No meetings, no other dinners, no party invites.. And my biz I own has never been stronger than it is today. Ive made millions in this biz and this is the biz's gathering place.
Either people have forgotten who I am or the people just aren't around anymore.
Man.. I can remember those old internext shows. They were pretty crazy. Not sure what to expect this time around. Ill be there but may be on the sidelines. There is always the bukkake party i guess!
Im in Vegas the week before for the affialate summit and my time there is booked tight with CEO's and company owners and the like. Im in adult but the mainstream guys covet me more than the adult guys for some reason.. It will be interesting to compare and contrast the two shows going back to back like this. I expect to get tons of networking in for the affiliate summit show. Internext I don't know what to expect. Going there more for the tradition. But the people in those memories are gone.
