Businesses large and small face new challenges from the current global economic slowdown. Let’s face it – the market has shifted from focusing on eyeballs to making money with your website or  social application. Whether you are a website owner, an online retailer, a blogger, a social applications developer or an entrepreneur preparing to launch a new internet company, you need to know the bottom line on how to monetize your business online. TiE’s Internet SIG has put together a productive half-day program where you will learn how to use advertising, affiliate marketing, user subscriptions, virtual goods and other methods to convert traffic to your website or blog into revenue.

Come join us, and learn through a series of workshops where we will have experts sharing their favorite monetization secrets, tips and techniques. Learn how to attract brand advertisers, drive the best deals with ad and affiliate networks, keep your users engaged with your social application or website, while providing virtual currency and digital goods that makes you lots of moolah.  [Note: Workshop seating is LIMITED - to facilitate deep interaction and learning between our workshop leaders and attendees. Register EARLY to avoid disappointment!]
We will close out the day with a great panel of experts and VCs, who will give you the scoop on current trends in online advertising, affiliate marketing, virtual goods and other monetization strategies.
