Affiliate Summit Party Highlight!
The place to be was at the Wynn Las Vegas with the PartnerCentric Inc and Digital River’s One Network “Pure Imagination” Chocolate Party! This was a seriously impressive Jaw Dropping event! The music from The RamFunkshus echoed smoothly throughout this elaborate party which included some of the biggest names in affiliate marketing. Linda Woods President of PartnerCentric Inc easily welcomed guests as they walked into the magnificent room filled with a more then 400 attendees throughout the evening. The Chocolate centerpiece warmly enchanted those who entered after they were handed refreshment from one of the incredible Wynn Las Vegas staff members. The ambiance was highlighted by a visit from cast members from AvenueQ one of the many luminous shows at the Wynn Las Vegas. Many also enjoyed the spacious wide open patio that looked over the expansive Wynn Las Vegas Golf course, as well the 4 or more open bars were constantly being engaged with many a happy party guest. The highlight for me was when Linda Woods President of PartnerCentric Inc enticed the Pepperjam Management team to a dance off competition. The winner’s of the dance off have not yet been determined! However I think that anyone who went to this truly was…. a Winner!
