XBIZ.net Santa Barbara Gathering Gets Rave Reviews

SANTA BARBARA — California’s first XBIZ.net industry networking event got “big props" for bringing together distinguished members of the adult business community on Aug. 28.

Organized and hosted by Adult Link Market at Santa Barbara’s Blush Restaurant, company representatives got to talk shop with other marketers and webmasters from various companies, including Epoch, DTI Cash, Sparta Video, Click Pink Media and RocketGate among others.

Some attendees said it was the best three hours of business they’ve spent all year and well worth the travel.

DTI Cash Affiliate Manager LeRoy Rowland said it was great to meet up with his peers and, “the guys from Adult Link Market are great hosts. Big, big props. I hope to see this event happen again.”

DailySexToys.com CEO Danny Becker concurred. “I had a blast myself. Thanks again to Tony, along with everybody else I met. I cant wait to do it again.”

According to event host Adult Link Market, the inaugural gathering demonstrated how a casual afternoon meeting of minds can draw qualified company leaders and yield new business contacts.

"It was great to see everyone who came out. Special shout to Alec Helmy and XBIZ.net for co-sponsoring the event," said Chris McGillin, managing director of Adult Link Market.
