I attended BlogOrlando this weekend. This is the second year that I have attended this free un-conference. Josh Hallett has put this event on the past three years. It is free because of the sponsorships that Josh brings in. They have different tracks that offering different sessions that you may be interested in.
Of the three sessions that I sat in today the Monetization track was my favorite. Ted Murphy from IZEA was leading this session. He is so loud and passionate it gets you excited about the topic. He could have been talking about a topic that I don’t particularly care for and it would have kept my attention. Some of the other presenters got up there and you could barely hear them and they didn’t seem happy to be there. Ted handed out two $20.00 bills to people and told them to write about him on his blog, whether it be good or bad, he didn’t care. That captured the audiences attention right away. Then people were more tuned in to what he had to say.
So if you are going to lead a session… be passionate!
