You have to remember AVN publishes a magazine and hosts those Internext shows. Their insight into the inner workings of this business is limited from that respect.
Weve all seen how people coming into the net side of this business are either easily swayed or confused by sig whores and people who pass themselves off as marketing geniuses that know nothing.
Spinning tunes poolside at the Hard Rock hardly qualifies anyone for marketing in this business. Those that are successful dont promote the clients they take money from but continue to promote themselves.
Jace I know youve been asked to sit on a blogging panel before.
If anyone is interested in being on a panel I suggest that you contact AVNonline and make your case. I for one wouldnt mind attending more of these from a listeners side.
Keep in mind though that people will expect your expert advice for free.
So be willing to share some of your success strategies before volunteering.

well, at the time I just didn't like avn very much, and while that stands true for the most part, I now look at the joke the panels are and know there is NO WAY I would ever get up there and do it
i would however be game for a private workshop for newbies or something like that, "building traffic with blogs", I finally feel confident in my abilities to be able to handle something like that
but I won't be put on the chopping block in a "panel" setting, i see more people coming back from internext laughing at them more than anything
