Not another show Thread? Vegas Internext 2010 going to see who's left? - GoFuckYourself.com

Dwreck · 11-10-2010, 09:44 AM

Hey Guys,

I have been getting alot of IM's about Internet Vegas and if I'm going. When I mention the ROI of shows and how the last Internext show was poorly attended and how I don't see the value anymore. I love the social nature and meeting old friends so its kinda like webmaster band camp for me.

The general feedback is its cheap and they wanna go to see who is left. You will see first hand what companies that weathered the storm and who isn't around anymore.

I'm also coming from Canada so its more expensive than say american webmasters that tend to dominate the show.

Your thoughts? Are you going?

Chris · 11-10-2010, 09:46 AM

I'm going from the 7th-10th...I'm staying at a hotel right next door to the show hotel and i got it for like $40 a night

With the show being free to attend it really makes it worth the trip

flight+hotel ended up being right around $500

Martin · 11-10-2010, 10:18 AM

I'll go with you D if you can get some cam girls to do a private show for me. :D

So if a company sees no value in attending a trade show it means that they haven't weathered the storm?

Wizzo · 11-10-2010, 10:24 AM

We are attending and looking forward to it!

Vegas Ken · 11-10-2010, 10:26 AM

I will be there. In fact I am here already awaiting everyones arrival

96ukssob · 11-10-2010, 10:29 AM

I will be there. Its almost a free trip for me, otherwise not sure if I would be going. Bringing my gf along, but its mainly to meet up with old friends in the biz now a days and less business itself

Randy West · 11-10-2010, 10:29 AM

I heard the tube guys will be at the airports handing out free counterfeited plane tickets hoping that you buy their branded drinks on the plane.

Also they will be at the show handing out counterfeit tickets, with live cam girls popping up in your face. It should be fun.

Shannon G · 11-10-2010, 10:29 AM

I'd love to go and hang w/ you, but I haven't enjoyed a vegas internext/avn since you, David and I broke in your credit card at the Wynn. ;) I'm definitely weathering the storm, but think I'll hold out on shows 'til Phoenix. And yet, I'm curious to see how the new format is going to work!

I'll be in Vegas for the AVN Expo & Internext as usual. I got a free plane ticket from Southwest this year!

This is a biz is if your not seen your dead.... The webmaster community has always been like that..

You miss one major trade show and ON NO THE SKY IS FALLING.....

myneid · 11-10-2010, 10:35 AM

i'll be there, but if i had to fly from canada i doubt i'd go
you may not see the definitive ROI on a show, but stop going to shows for a year and see how your money dips.
It is the best way to meet a lot of the new people in the industry, which you need to do for continuing your business.

They are not charging for badges this year - you just have to register before hand and "prove" you are in the business

if you register at the show it will cost but they havnt said a price ... just less than $100

That's not true. Whoever is feeding you that is completely blind to the new landscape.

The webmaster community has changed drastically. Surely you see that.

Anyways, I'm not here to educate people. Just stating the obvious.

Every eight completed round trips in the Southwest airlines frequent flier program- no matter how short the flights- earns one a free r.t. flight. I just saved mine up for Vegas.
