THE
Domain Conference Lands Morgan Linton as Keynote
Speaker - Spotlight to Shine on John Ferber and
Braden Pollock As Well
|
|
With
the inaugural edition
of THE
Domain Conference coming
up this summer, key positions on the
agenda are rapidly being filled.
We've learned that veteran domain
investor, developer and blogger Morgan
Linton will deliver the
keynote speech at the event that
will run September 26-29, 2015
at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66
Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Most
recently Morgan and his wife, the
equally talented Daina
Linton, has been busy growing
their award-winning startup, FashionMetric.com,
into a disruptive force in the fashion
industry. Their new company, based
in Austin, Texas and backed by
billionaire entrepreneur (and Shark
Tank TV Star) Mark Cuban,
is an
SaaS solution for apparel retailers
and brands to gather intelligence
about their customers and
personalize the online apparel
shopping experience.
From
the first time I met Morgan in
person (at the 2010
T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Vancouver

Morgan
Linton to deliver keynote
speech at THE Domain
Conference
|
|
conference
in Canada), I was impressed by his
drive, intelligence and unbridled
optimism. We had been in touch
frequently online before that but as
soon as I spent a few minutes
talking with him face to face I thought "this is a guy who is
going places" and he has
certainly done that.

We
also learned that THE Domain
Conference has completed an
impressive trifecta by
adding Bidtellect.com
(and DomainHoldings.com)
Co-Founder John
Ferber and
multi-talented entrepreneur Braden
Pollock (LegalBrandMarketing.com)
to the all-star cast that
will take the stage during
the show (the first event
being produced by Howard,
Barbara and Ray Dillman Neu
since their long run with
the pioneering T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
conference that ended with
the 10th
anniversary show
last fall, after which
partner Rick Schwartz
(and the T.R.A.F.F.I.C.
brand) went into
retirement).
John
Ferber has had a remarkable
business career that
includes selling his first
major company, Advertising.com,
to America Online for
nearly $500 million!
We were fortunate to get him
into our field after that
when he teamed up with
industry veteran Chad
Folkening to
co-found DomainHoldings.com,
then Bidtellect.com. The
latter company is the first
open, multi-format, multi-device
Native Marketing Platform
connecting advertisers and publishers to
deliver optimized and insightful
native advertising at scale.
Braden
Pollock is a veteran domain
investor/developer with a
long track record of
business success. While he
has been a speaker at many
domain conferences
(including T.R.A.F.F.I.C.,
NamesCon, DOMAINfest and
Domaining Europe) he
has become especially renowned
for his stage personality
and insightful interviewing
skills that have made him the
most in-demand moderator in
the industry. Braden will
make sure you leave
his sessions with
useful, actionable (and
entertaining)
information. |

An
early bird admission
rate of $499 is
still
available for
THE Domain Conference, but
it will be going up to $699
on June 15th, so now
is the time to take
advantage of the lower |
|
|
pricing. You can also reserve
your room at the
Hyatt Regency Pier 66 now
with rates starting at just $109
a night with no
resort fee and free
Internet. |
