WordPress Conference in Atlanta
I went to a meeting on Wednesday with the organizers of the WordPress conference called “The Business of WordPress” happening June 22 and 23rd at the Georgia Tech Research Institute in Atlanta, GA. A few others were there who may be presenting or volunteering and we got an overview of the event.
One thing I found unique is that they’re curating the whole event. In other words, they chose the topics first and then looked for the presenters.
Each track is geared towards a specific level of WordPress user, no one person would be too upset that there are two sessions they want to attend at the same time. I’ve been to conferences before (although no tech conferences to date) and this is one thing that really ticked me off. So I’m happy that the organizers put so much thought into this.
There’s also an entire track of Q&A sessions all day for people who have questions and don’t necessarily want to bother with an entire session.
And something that I think is absolute genius is their “Boardroom” track. Only 25 tickets will be available for this, but it’s an entire day worth of exclusive access to and one-on-one time with WordPress experts in the Boardroom of the GTRI building.
Now all the above is just for the actual conference. The day before is a pre-conference workshop day where people can get hands-on WordPress training.
If you are interested and want to go to the conference ,I have two things to share with you before you go off and buy your tickets:
- I will be presenting. Not quite 100% sure on what, but I’ll let you know!
- I will have coupon codes available for my followers/readers/clients who want to go. You’ll save at least $50 off the listed price AND help yours truly with small affiliate commission. What could be better? You help me, get a discount AND get to go to the conference!
I’ll be emailing my list with the coupon codes as soon as I get them, and they’ll be the first to know. If you want in, sign up for the mailing list on the right hand side of this page.
