CAP Cancun, an affiliate’s perspective

I booked two months in advance as I needed to apply for a visa to go to Mexico as soon as I heard that the CAP website was having people down there and all the brands participating in what was to be a great event where brands schmoozed with different operators and affiliates along with others in the online gambling industry.
Upon arrival at the lavish five star resort, organization was not to be seen for the event. I waited another day, and only saw SEO expert Gary Beal at the bar. I then met a few affiliates and affiliate managers there, but none of the brands that I wanted to talk to where there. This type of interaction took place throughout the week as no one really went to the resort. It was poorly organized, and different groups of people just hanged around the hotel with not much to talk to.
I felt quite disappointed as I really wanted to speak with the brands that I promote, and I also wanted to know a bit more about the future of the industry and also take a chance to regain some insights as to the future of the industry, and to talk about the economic downturn and how to approach it etc..
On a positive note, I managed to get some useful information relating to my sites thanks to Gary who was nice enough to help people who needed new tips in the SEO field.
It is just disappointing to spend a considerable amount of money going to these conferences and hoping to make new business and re-establish previous ones and not really taking anything out of it once all has been paid for. In the future, it would be better for the organizers to warn people in advance if the event is cancelled or if no one is really attending so that cancellations can be placed into effect on an early basis.
It was however nice to take some time off work, and do some major sightseeing in what is a major tourist site full of ancient ruins, nice beaches, and lavish nightclubs. Perhaps in the future these types of events can be made beneficial for everyone if brands and major players in the event can RSVP weeks in advance with an online list so that willing attendees can know who is going far in advanced and make plans accordingly.
