That is very fast! Too bad im not fortunate enough to sign up
I’m still waiting for my confirmation mail though. Shoe, would you stop keeping me on the edge of my seat and send me the go signal already? I think I landed the 20th spot yesterday. Kudos in advance
I heard over the grapevine that the Clift will be offering a super exclusive treatment to this year’s Retreat participants. While I’d love to join, I still have a start-up online bookshop to take care of. Hope you guys have a blast.
Now this is the fastest Retreat sellout ever. Does the fact that you lowered the figures from 50 to 30 contribute to this speedy rate, Jeremy?
Good luck and have a grand time at the ER!
I didn’t expect that most of the slots would be gone this soon. I’ll try to snag one slot if I still could. Brb.
No, you don’t. Because it’s mine. Mine, I tell you! LMAO
Damn. I missed it
Why are you moping? Shoe announced that there are still seven sweet spots available and I hope I could land a spot. Elite Retreat 7 is just too hot to miss, baby!
Imagine the pandemonium when Shoe announces tomorrow that there are only a couple of slots left. Remember the Glenn Frey song? “Someone’s gonna cry when they know they’ve lost you/Someone’s gonna thank the stars above…”
I just couldn’t quite imagine all of the facepalms happening right now across the country. If you can’t join this year’s Retreat, why not put your cool face and hope next year you’ll be luckier?
There’s still 9 slots left, right? You just might get a slot if you hurry and register now.
nope. just checked. only 6 left.
Congrats to everyone who’s going !
Can I use the SBA peer-to-peer program to loan $5k and then use it to fund my Elite Retreat expenses? Then even up the ante on the privileges by mentioning I saw their ad on the Shoemoney blog. Quite far-fetched right now but when I succeed, it’ll be EPIC.
I beg to differ. Getting the opportunity of hearing Matt Mickiewicz – Entrepreneur, Business Growth Expert share his secrets would be epic.
I can’t say enough about the event. The EliteRetreat was the foundation for a huge percentage of the people I know in the industry. Not only do you learn a ton from the speakers/consultants but the value of the attendees is amazing. You will meet some of the smartest, nicest people amongst the attendees. I just can’t recommend it highly enough.
14 seats gone poof since yesterday but that’s just making me even more hyped up! I know I’d still make it to the magic seven and complete the ER7 with flying colors. What say you, Jeremy?
Thanks for the heads up, Shoe. I haven’t been as hyped as this since we partied at the Playboy Mansion last year with Mike Sprouse and the rest of his crew. San Diego, get ready to have the Shoemoney experience!
I understand he’s the key note speaker for ER7 as well, yes? That man’s going to places.
Could you imagine the cost for one company these days to have these web marketing geniuses to all come in separately for 2 days and go over the most sought-after topics in ER7? This is definitely a steal at $5K.
I figured what the heck and just put in an application for the Elite Retreat 7. I look forward to meeting everyone if accepted.
Now, that’s the spirit! Let me borrow 4 big ones and you’re certainly good to go. <=== Conning just to join the ER7
Yes it is. But entry fee is still a lot more expensive than most of the conferences I’ve ever been to.
Well, it’s not exactly the regular kind of deal you get from conferences and workshops. I mean, one-on-one with industry experts? You don’t get that unless you’re lucky to ambush the speaker for a chat.
Excellent point! I couldn’t agree more.
Needless to say ER promises to be the perfect venue to pick the brains of industry experts and a bunch of smart attendees.
I hear you man. That’s why it sucks that I can’t go.
Those one-on-ones are probably one of ER’s unique selling points. I think that’s were you get real value for your money.
Now that will make the competition even fiercer. Shoemoney Battle Royale, commence!
I wish all of you luck at the retreat, friends. It would be terrific to hear back from you about the experience.
Don’t forget to share your notes!
Share links of your post-event articles/reviews please. Thanks!
Good thing it’s too pricey for me. One less competition for coveted slots.
Wow! Only 9 slots left? Last I checked there were still 21 passes up for grabs. Looks like you’ll be closing registration shortly, Jeremy.
Some people don’t even know how to count. There are still 9 seats left, people! (Come to think of it, even I would go bonkers for a sec if I found out I couldn’t join the Elite Retreat.) Last one to sign up sucks eggs.
Is it just me or is the Shoemoney Blog full of scantily-clad women? Hmmm. An affiliate deal with Hugh Hefner in the works, Jeremy?
No matter how you see it, the ER7 is really really expensive. 5K for a two-day seminar? Kinda cool but not practical.
I feel bad sitting this one out because of a month-long business trip. I’ve been planning to register for this soon after I heard about it from a friend last year. Maybe next year.
Don’t be too hard on yourself. There’s still next year’s retreat.
Excuse me but I can’t seem to avoid having “hard feelings” looking at the sexy pictures from the recent Playboy shindig…
Are there VIP slots available this year?
I can’t remember reading anything about that in his other posts.
Shoe, is there a possibility if you increase the number of participants next year the 5K admission fee will be lessened? (I can’t join since I lack the dough, buddy
)
Just like I said yesterday, the race keeps getting hotter and hotter. Ain’t that right, Jeremy?
Save the best for last, baby. The person who gets the final spot should be given a prize. What do you think, Shoe?
6 passes left
hi patrick,
where is he posting how many people are left?
Why are you always reminding us that the number is dwindling? Unlike!
Hi Shoe
Thanks for sharing this information. I look forward to hearing more since I won’t be joining this year. It still sounds very exciting. Enjoy!
Danny, you #1 fan from Raleigh
I can relate, too, Dan. I can’t join this year since I have to go on a field assignment in Detroit. Hope to read some re-echo posts about the event. Much love from NYC!
You look great in that photo you posted on the ER site. Was that recently taken?
I’m expecting a lot of hurried and panicky retweets any minute now… Take cover!
I’m just wondering. is the Elite Retreat similar to Barcamp and Affiliate Camp? Please do verify this, Shoe. Thanks very much and more power.
Awesome! Kudos to everyone behind ER 2010!
What cool stuff are you giving away in the event? I heard you gave away iPods or some other gadget in one of the previous ERs.
I’m 3 grand short and a bit thirsty, too. I’ll be at Orange with the girls. Anyone for a round of non-celebratory drinks due to non-ER7 participation?
Only 1 spot left! Only 1 spot left! ROFL!
“After registration, each attendee is screened to ensure the Elite Retreat will full-fill your expectations. If there is any doubt in our minds, that we can’t 100% achieve your goal, we will not allow you to come and waste your money.” — Sounds fair.
So there’s a chance that not everyone who registered will make the cut? Are you going to re-open the registration when a slot becomes available?
They even have a money-back guarantee. How cool is that?
That’s actually the reason why I didn’t sign up this year.
excellent speakers list. it’s seems to me this conference will live up to the hype.

I know, right?
Industry thought leaders together in one exclusive event? Count me in!
I can’t attend this event. Any chance we can see your presentation? Some snippets will do, of course, i.e. if you can’t share everything.
Bits and pieces will do. I do hope he can share a few of the speakers’ insights in his recap.
I won’t be able to attend this one. I hope you will have another one early next year.
I would love to go. But (and that’s a big BUT) it’s too pricey for me.
