One of my aims for 2008 is to expand the affiliate marketing side of my business, I did quite well in December but still have a lot to learn so it’s time to re-invest some of the profits into a trip to San Fransico to attend and learn from the experts at Elite Retreat.

Elite Retreat is a workshop where you can learn from experts in their fields. Speakers include Jeremy Schoemaker, Neil Patel, Aaron Wall, Andy Liu, Brian Clark and a keynote speech from Guy Kawasaki. As well as the various talks you also get one on one time with each of the speakers to talk about your business.

It’s a 2 day event which costs a hefty $5K and from the reviews I’ve read (eMoms at Home, Mitchel Harad, pepperjam and Chris Hooley) it’s well worth the price with attendees making the ticket price back in the first month or so.

I’ll be posting about the event when I’m there (April 3rd and 4th) and I’m already really excited about attending. Another first for me is I’ll be flying Virgin Upper class, so I get a chair that converts into a bed (no more fighting for elbow room), a bar you can sit at on the plane and a chauffeur driven car to the airport, cool!

If you’re interested there are still 18 spots available (at time of writing) and it it comes with a 100% money back guarantee (which includes flights) courtesy of Jeremy, if you are attending let me know before hand as it would be great having a chat and getting to know people before the event.
