we got 'budget approval' for two tickets to an SEO event in Leeds - ThinkVisibility, unfortunately we have a team of 4 people - and to be honest I am feeling that despite the success of previous ones, the list of speakers isn't quite as good as, well previous ones ... A couple of golden speakers but I want all 4 of us to go along - mainly because these things have a habit of being more fun in groups and more educational if we can discuss them afterwards.
The last one I went to however was only a few days after my daughter was born, so I slept through a couple and probably looked a bit, disshevelled (I should check the spelling on that one), anyhow - it was invaluable to talk it through with colleagues afterwards!
Anyhow, one of the things I mentioned in my email was that the tickets hadn't sold as quickly as the previous event, and with the recession etc.. I was trying to blag a discount, not forthcoming I think that we probably won't be going this year, but anyhow - since spotting the speed of ticket sales, it seems the number has magically dropped by about 30% ... now either they have suddenly sold a lot, OR they are trying to stop cheeky b'gers like me trying to blag a discount based on sales ... Me, suspicious?
I did also ask about SEO North and didn't get too much of a response on that one... Having recently moved up to the lovely city of Leeds I haven't got my usual circle of contacts so I think I am going to need to start socialising in these circles again... If your an SEO bloke in the lovely city of Leeds who likes a beer once a month, give us a shout!
