Think Tank 2007 at the Gainey Ranch in Scottsdale, Arizona is in the books and was a huge success. The event was considerably larger this year than it was last year. There were just under 90 affiliates, merchants, vendors and OPMs at the event and it was an information powerhouse.
The merchants who presented their programs were (in no particular order):
- ChineseLaundry.com
- Store.Redskins.com
- CelebrateExpress.com
- CSNStores.com
- LandofNod.com *more on LandofNod.com
- TFAW.com
- JonesSoda.com
- Restockit.com
- TinyPrints.com
- TheNerds.net
- Hocks.com
- JensonUSA.com
Each merchant brought something different and interesting and there was lots of feedback from the pool of affiliates, managers and OPMs for each merchant.
Brian Littleton and his team at Shareasale outdid themselves with this event. It was perfectly run, flowed very well, was well-planned and came off flawlessly. There was plenty of time for networking, partying and learning.
The Gainey Ranch is beautiful and I found the staff there to be wonderfully attentive and willing.
Shareasale Think Tank is a new event on the affiliate circuit, but it is growing and getting better and more informative every year.
