The stars have aligned and I will be speaking at iDate in Miami in a few weeks. I’m on a panel about revenue generation. I’ve helped launch more than fifty dating sites and social networks and am looking forward to sharing what I’ve learned over the past few years as well as turning the crowd onto new revenue generation ideas and opportunities. I would have liked to participate in the “Introduction to the online dating business” on Wednesday, but I’m grateful to have a speaking slot regardless.
The workshop (agenda) is Friday January 23rd at 1:30pm in B Wing – Rooms B210 & 211. I hope you’ll stick around for it. The closing panel (beer served!) which follows is sure to be a highlight of the show.
This workshop will serve as a unique idea generating session for developing other revenue models for Online Dating and Social Networking. The three leading independent consultants to the industry will each provide “outside the box” ideas on how businesses can acheive higher revenue from their user base. Speakers are: Mark Brooks (Publisher of Online Personals Watch) David Evans (Publisher of Online Dating Insider) and Evan Marc Katz (CEO of Thought Rocket).
At iDate2007 Miami, the Revenue Model Workshop was met with resounding success from the delegates. Many operators gained valuable business information and some gained multi-million dollar business ideas from the session. At the iDate2009 event, each presenter will provide ideas in “rapid fire” each for 20 minutes, followed by a 30 minute question period from the general audience.
Consolidating things into twenty minutes is going to be difficult, but I’m up for the challenge.
