In Palm Springs and Preparing for DEMO 08

January 27, 2008

I’ve arrived in Palm Springs at the beautiful Marriott Resort. It was a long trip from Montreal through San Francisco, but we’ve made it. My co-Founder, Fred Ngo, has come along and we’re expecting more of our team tomorrow and Monday. The venue is spectacular, a great place for a conference like DEMO 08.

In case you’re interested, we’re presenting on-stage on Wednesday, January 30th @ 9:44am PST (12:44pm EST) and you can watch it live at DEMO.com.

I hope to leave some short updates here over the next week about the experience and then come back with plenty of news, lessons learned, etc.

And Standout Jobs goes officially live on Monday, January 28th @ 7am EST when the press embargo is lifted. So check it out!

  • Hi all - thank you so much for the well wishes, it's all extremely appreciated.
  • Welcome to the Coachella Valley, Ben. I'm a desert rat myself (The Marriott is just a few blocks away.) and would like to wish you great success with your presentation.

    I stumbled onto your site tonight and really enjoyed reading your articles. A breath of fresh air amongst the molasses-thick online pollution. Bravo!

    As a direct-response advertising consultant, I also speak about customer service. I'm a stickler myself, and find a never-ending source of customer-service "What Not to Do's" every time I spend money... ANYWHERE!

    Heck, nowadays when I hear THANK YOU I practically have a coronary.

    Success to you my friend!
