Affiliate Summit West 2013 Day 3 Recap

January 16, 2013 by Shawn Collins

Tuesday, January 15, 2013 was the third and final day of Affiliate Summit West 2013 at Caesars Palace Las Vegas.

The day started with a tasty attendee breakfast, and I got nice and fueled up on bacon and juice.

The conference closed out with an energetic keynote from Tim Ash (I am still a little rattled by his tribal scream or whatever that was).

After Affiliate Summit West 2013 wrapped up, we brought speakers and some attendees (there was a chance to get a spot during my First Timers Orientation) from the conference to enjoy dinner, drinks, networking, dancing, and general goofy times at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar and Grill.
