RSS Ray’s summary of one of the major conferences and expos for online sellers.

A big THANK YOU to the wonderful people associated with Online Market World.

I had the privilege last week of speaking and broadcasting at Online Market World. In addition to a total of 6 live remote broadcasts, I moderated panel discussions about improving lifetime customer value, killer tactics for seasonal and event driven sales, reputation management, competing on a shoestring budget and advanced ppc best practices.

The best thing about the 3 day trade show and expo was working with and meeting some of the finest people in the eCommerce industry. A special thanks to show organizer Lisa Morgan who is simply one of the finest people ever put on the planet. Chris Murch, owner of wsRadio.com was there supporting the event and Chris has always been a huge supporter of this radio show.

I don’t have time to mention all the wonderful people I met there but I would like to single out several. Tim Ash of Site Tuners was there signing books, offering advice and brightening up the place with a huge smile on his face. Ben Hanna of Business.com was quite an engaging radio show guest offering many insights for B2B sellers. Suzanne Norman of Emma shared the latest email marketing best practices in a live interview and Steve Castro-Miller joined me for a broadcasted discussion about how live chat services from Boldchat.com grow sales. My last live guest at the show was Nate Odell of Avalara, a company handling sales and use tax issues for online sellers. All were fabulous conversations and all were reflective of the quality thought leaders at this show.

I look forward to the 2009 edition of Online Market World!
