Here is another scenario for possible online consumption of the Brand New Conference. But before I explain that I just want to point out that, yes, we are trying to monetize this event as much as possible — not because we are greedy bastards, but because we need to both cover the expenses of the conference as well as build a solid cash reserve for Brand New that allows us to devote more time to it and other UnderConsideration ventures. Getting things for free is great, but giving them away for free is a bad business model. As they say where I come from: No money, no dances the dog. Also, to be honest, it’s really great to be able to get your feedback before we do anything that might not get your support. So…
Forget the live webcast. What if you could purchase and download individual presentations for US$1.99 or the whole 8 presentations for US$12? They won’t be available for free at any point, this is the only place to get them after the conference happens until the end of time.
Now, for those of you thinking about attending the conference, does this diminish the value of being at the live event?
