These photos are from the John Hancock Observatory. CCBill sponsored this XBIZ Summit 2011 event. Luckily, the Chicago weather started clearing up towards the end of the day, so while it may have been a little chilly, the view was spectacular.

After we finished at the observatory, goodgirl and I headed over to Ditka’s for dinner. Da Pork Chops are killer. I highly recommend them.

These pics are from Saturday at the adult b-to-b trade show known as XBIZ Summit 2011. Saturday morning seemed to get off to a slow start, so I suspect there may have been a little too much partying going on Friday evening. Later in the day, the seminars began, covering dating and the adult mobile market. The show itself ended with a new feature they called the 3-Minute Show-offs. This enabled presenters to give a three minute pitch of their products or services. This was very well received with a standing room only audience.

The Social Marketing session on day one of the Xbiz Summit covered profiting from alternative traffic sources like Myspace, Twitter and Facebook. The panel was Moderated by Peter Housley CEO of Naughty Tweet Network. The panel included Kelly Shibari from The PRSM Group, Lauren MacEwen from 7 Veils Media , Joanne Cachapero Membership Director at Free Speech Coalition, Christophe Peyras aka Frenchie from Streamate, Sam from MyPornProfile.com, and Paige Little from SexyLittlePaige.com.

The session started with suggestions on how to be successful on Twitter. Kelly Shibari suggests that you be personal, reply to tweets @ you and post news and videos that you find interesting. Joanne Cachapero agreed that you need to show off your personality as well as posting videos and news. She also felt Myspace is considered to be dead pretty much at this point. Lauren MacEwen suggests you access your end users through twitter and that customers like being able to tweet you. She suggests you build sales by making connections through Twitter and if your customers like you they will tell their friends. Sam suggests you have contests and give things away to your Twitter followers.
