EV1: Headsurfer


WOW.

After listening to the key note delivery, I have a new level of respect and positive energy for EV1.

HeadSurfer is not anything like what I expected. He seems like he genuinely cares about his customers and hasn't lost sight of where he came from.

You simply have to respect that.

Robert has always been a genuine, friendly guy... I just wish more people got to know him... it would increase overall respect for EV1 and the whole team and philosophy behind it.

I noticed a lot of people who have never done any business or had much of an opinion on EV1 gave him a good applause... nice to see.

I came off with a good impression of Robert and EV1 after his speech as well.

I will second that on a sales boost. He gave a real good talk on what he did in the past 6 years!

It should have pumped up a few people in the crowd too!

Robert is a amazing guy. He is truly authentic and I have learned a great deal from him in the past as I have met him and has been a true role model for me and my company and how we run, we have made many changes after the advice I took from him a few months and it has helped.

I hope to gain more insight from him as he might be one of the smartest businessman in the industry.

Yes, Robert is an amazing person for those that know about him and what he has accomplished. Now, if he can just get the domain reg. up and running on EV1, I would really be impressed

Yeah, I was very impressed with what I saw and heard of Robert at the keynote. I also had a good 25 minute chat with him and Isabel at the EV1 stand today.

I think Interjuncture will be putting up some video of the conference on their website.

You might want to bug them a bit about it.

I think they should squeeze the videos into DVDs and sell em.
This way they can even make money from people who didn't attend the event, just like how Britney is selling her concert DVDs.

I am going to bug George a lil more now that everyones got me curious about what Robert said that got them so pumped up.

There was a video camera or two so it shouldnt be too long before some bootlegs make their way onto the forums

Some other useful sessions from the likes of Ensim (about VoIP) and Yahoo on pay per click strategy etc...
