This is pretty much why I never went to shows.
I have always cultivated my own traffic & marketed my content so I didn't really need affiliates. What affiliates I did have I met online and they approached me, or I made some posts on a forum and they replied.
No reason to go to a show to meet the competition and be around a bunch of people you don't know that are getting drunk and fighting and I dunno. the show's look fun. They seemed really intimidating and chaotic to me. I know I'm likely wrong because the people who go to the shows always talk about how much they loved the shows and I've never been to a show so they would know better than me.
I'm best one-on-one in a focused situation but the shows always seemed like going to a high school reunion to me. I've also never been to high school reunions despite friends on Facebook trying to get me to go for years and years and years, longer than people in the industry have been trying to get me to go to shows
