When Timothy Ferriss came on Mixergy , he said meeting bloggers in person at conferences helped make his book a New York Times Best Seller. When I interviewed Douglas Campbell , he told me that he got in by volunteering to help, which is how he met people like Amazon’s Jeff Bezos.
He figures organizers often comp me a ticket for helping them, so he uses my name. When Craig heard that, he brought up a good point. What if you’re a startup and can’t pay for a ticket?

To help you use the ideas in Reality Check to build your startups, I’ll show you how Alltop uses them.
I think Guy Kawasaki felt I was being a jerk when I pressed him about whether he was following the advice in his own book, Reality Check , at his new company Alltop . But Guy is amazingly open and he really does live the ideas in his book.

I didn’t get what I was looking for from this interview, but I think what I learned is even better.
I called up Kevin Fischer and Ed Weissman because they’re two of the top users of a site that was sending Mixergy a lot of traffic, and I wanted to learn how to get more.
