Since 2002 sellers from far and wide have been meeting at the annual shin dig that is eBay Live in celebration of all things, well, eBay. This year is no different except that for the first time the guys and gals from vzaar will be there excitedly telling the world about our video service.
So in three weeks time we'll be boarding a plane and flying to Chicago where the three day event is being held. Now, in my previous role at eBay I once manned the International Stand (I think it was a convenient way of making all the overseas staff look busy) and I'm not afraid to say that it was a exhilarating experience. 10,000 eBayers can create quite an atmosphere and in America, where people generally like to share in one another's success, Live acts as the perfect event for bringing all that bubbling to the surface. It promises to be a great few days.
So what does the vzaar kit list look like for three days in the Windy City?
- One rather large stand with vzaar branded all over it (Sneak peak below)
- 4 laptops and plenty of plugs
- A DVD full of video demos
- Team shirts. Black is in we hope
- A pocketful of business cards
- A wind breaker (just in case)
- A crate of Red Bull for keeping the energy levels up!
In fact we won't be the only Brits abroad come June 19th. Our good friends at Frooition, Channel Advisor UK and Tamebay will also be making the trip so look out for our evening drinks invite! In fact if you plan on attending eBay Live and want to meet with us then do drop us a line in advance.
Plus, without quite letting the cat out of the bag, we'll be uncorking a couple of bottles of champagne as we have something rather exciting to share with you all at Live. See you there!
