OK…so I’m tired of discussion about the economy and I think there’s something that we at AC can do to help. It’s just an idea, but I’d love to know your thoughts.
I’ve heard several people at companies talk about how travel budgets have been slashed and there’s no more money for training, conferences, etc. I started thinking about the response we’ve had to the 5 Conversations event happening on Sunday evening.
That led to this thought: what if we do a year-long, online conference?
In other words, what if we do one event per month online and bring some interesting topics and a forum for interaction to the AC community? Consider it our “recession boycott.” We would make it free for AC Premium subscribers, but non-Premium folk could access the sessions for a very, very modest fee ($10 or so) or buy a season pass by subscribing to AC Premium (plus get the 160+ back episodes of AC in addition to the weekly ones we’ll do over the next year.)
I’ve scheduled one more session for June, but what do you think about this idea? If you like it, what topics would you like to see covered in our “year-long conference?”
