At the start of August, it was that time again: to go stateside and grow the Magnetise network. The Affiliate Summit East dwarfs the London events, with thousands of delegates from across the globe. The “Meet Market”, a speed-dating-esque assembly, was a no-nonsense place to meet everyone. The place was packed with advertisers, affiliates and branded memorabilia, all in equal measure. It felt like the business card ping-pong championships!
As well as making new connections, we also met with a number of existing Magnetise partners. All working week, we speak to these partners on the phone and via email, but you can’t beat the conviviality and productivity of a face to face meeting. Particularly if it is over brunch!
Even after several days of New York sized portions we couldn’t say no to a final blowout brunch with a supplier. Pancakes and Bloody Marys @ Sarabeths Park Avenue. It filled us up all the way through the red eye home.
