I mentioned in my Save the Date that I would give a week’s notice.
True to my word, I am giving a week’s notice. I wanted to speed up the time between the “save the date” and actually releasing tickets, primarily because I know people want to start booking travel, and I don’t want folks booking travel, if they cannot get a ticket. It just seems unfair.
So that said, we will be releasing tickets on Saturday 21 May, at 10am Eastern Time, with a second grouping of tickets to be released on Sunday 22 May, at 10am Eastern Time.
I can’t tell you everything, but here is what I can tell you:
- Tickets will cost $95.
- You will get 5 beverages/beers, and lunch
- A ton of great networking opportunities, and a number of awesome speakers
I won’t share all the speakers right now, for two reasons: (1) I don’t have them locked in, and (2) I won’t lock the speakers in, until the survey is back with what you all want to learn!
But, I will say this:
- We’ll be inviting Micheal Dean back to talk about Gift Cards – Reselling them, Buying them, Maximizing them.
I have a number of other folks who have expressed interest in attending and speaking, but I’m hesitant until we get the results of the survey that I will send out after we release tickets. The reason we do this is because we want to provide a line-up that you, the attendee, wants. Potential topics include:
- Tax
- Reselling Tools
- Tips and Tricks for Scaling
- Others based on survey results
So, I realize I haven’t given you every detail, but the fact is, we’re more than 3 months out. I want to give you the opportunity to form some of the DO, and I’ll take your input and make a masterpiece.
The things that will not change are:
- Date/Time: 11 September/9-6pm
- Location: Jailbreak Brewery, Laurel, MD
- Link: ResellingDO3
10 of what time zone?
@Jeff – good point. Eastern time – I’ve updated the post.
Trevor – I can’t wait. If I score the tickets, it will be my second time at the brewery. Great beer and great venue.
Great!
Can’t buy tickets! Says sale ended with 25 remaining at 10:00:37 today
SHIT. Sold out in the time it took me to refresh the browser. SHIT.
@MickiSue – I don’t think I see you on the list yet. Will release more tickets tomorrow. Had technical difficulties right at 10am this morning, won’t happen tomorrow though! Sorry for the difficulties!
Wait. So if I’d tried after it said “sold out” I might have gotten in?
Oh, man!
I do have a request for those who, like me, plan to try tomorrow.
If you are going to buy a ticket for your spouse/SO, thinking that this DO will convince them to join you in reselling, maybe, rethink that. There are such a few tickets available that it would be a kindness to let people who already care about reselling buy them.
Baltimore has a lot to do, especially in the area around the Inner Harbor. Maybe spouse would prefer looking around there?
I am booked!
For those going I got a very good points deal with Southwest flights into BWI and also the Laurel Holiday Inn Express is 15k IHG points per night, free breakfast and wifi.
See you all there!
Any plans on organizing the same event, here in San Francisco/Bay Area?
@Lee – not in the near future, unfortunately. The next ones in consideration are Charlotte and DFW.
