Testimonials
Patrick Harris, Cyberian Frontier said:
"I learned something from everyone that attended. And the information exchange spanned all the various aspects of running a hosting business. From technical to business. There was something for everyone. I also strongly valued having some face time with a Verio representative. Thank you for making this happen. I think you both did a fantastic job organizing and facilitating the discussions."
Mike Skimin, Emerge Inc. said:
"The conference was very much worth my time. The time spent discussing business practices and solutions with a team of like minded companies does not occur in many competitive environments. The ideas I learned hopefully will improve Emerge and give us the ability to give more back to our community and the ViaVerio community. The conference was very well put together and very well thought out. Scott and Mark, thank you for helping Emerge grow and for providing us a forum to meet other resellers with whom we can create mutually beneficial business arrangements. "
Suzanne Newman, Dott Communications LLC said:
I feel that I walked away with valuable resources that will improve my business."
Robert Thaller, Net-Flow said:
"I was able to learn something from the others who attended the conference. I think you did a great job on making the agenda items something we all had in common and wanted to discuss."
Jim Smith, Blarneystone LLC. said:
"I seldom get the opportunity to interact with industry peers in a learning and sharing environment. This was a great chance to do so. Thanks! It was a great event!"
John Blood, Behold! Learning Inc. said:
“Absolutely. For XXX reasons: 1) connecting and learning from other experienced resellers provided knowledge and experience that ‘short-cutted’ my time with their advice; 2) finding new solutions to client problems/opportunities; 3) being provided with new reseller opportunities from Scott that will help me round out my business offerings and have me reappraising my business strategy; 4) finding new ways and customers within the reseller community to which I can sell my solutions and services. This conference was a major expense for my small operation and I figure I made back the investment by several hundred percent! That’s a good return.”
Brian White, Webhosting Solutions said:
“Yes. I learned a lot, it was motivational, I made new business connections and was introduced to some new opportunities and learned a few ways to improve my business.”
Dean Bowen, Net-Flow Corporation said:
“Yes….because it did what I was looking for. Networking. Expanding more opportunities. Learning what others are doing that I’m not that I should be doing.“
Scott Haymore, Etrafficers Inc. said:
“Yes. Interesting Discussion, Nice people. I wish that I would have spent more time with the group after dinner, Wednesday night, etc.”
Art Zemon, Hens-Teeth Network said:
“Definitely. I met people with whom I am looking forward to working and I found at least one product that will be a strong asset in our portfolio.”
Tom Ashton, AshtonITC said:
“Absolutely! I will gain enough new business and save enough expenses through ideas learned from sharing with my peers and opportunities presented to pay for the time and expense many times over. Also I genuinely enjoyed meeting everyone and feel that I have gained some new friendships that go beyond the business aspects.”
Darien Kruss, Internet Presence Consulting Inc. said:
“Absolutely. I was able to put some faces to the names I’ve been communicating with, and learn how others are sustaining (or growing) their businesses in these interesting times. Most importantly, all of this meeting and learning didn’t cause me to completely lose touch with my office or clients since we had internet access, and the atmosphere permitted the occasional IM or email exchange without interfering with the ebb and flow of discussion.”
