Every few weeks, announcements for various conferences around the
country come into my email box. 90% of them offer an EarlyBird
special about 3-4 months before the event. While it’s true that
most people wait until the last minute (sometimes the last day) to
register, taking advantage of these specials could save you a full
thousand dollars.
For example, the Spread the Word has a registration of $997 per
person and involves 2-3 days in a luxury hotel. Anyone living more
than 4 hours from Atlanta would most likely need airline tickets as
well. With rooms going for $109/night and airfare off the charts,
that could spell a lot of outlay.
However, taking advantage of the EarlyBird special gives you these
discounts:
1. registration of $797 (keeps you from losing $200) BUT if you register with a
friend that price drops to $650 each (keeps you from losing $347)
2. with more than 3 months lead-in time, airfare averages $300 for
a roundtrip ticket from most major airports (keeps you from losing up to $500)
3. sharing a room when the hotel says they are charging the same
amount for 2 occupants as for 1 gives you a reduction of
$54.50/night or a total of $163.50 you won’t lose
So, if you register early, come with a friend, and have a
roommmate, you won’t lose $1010.50. That
means…
4. you could schedule 1/2 hour consultations with 5 speakers for
the same cost and give your career a major boost. Nothing takes the
place of personal time with an expert who cares about helping you
succeed. This is your prime opportunity.
5. scheduling early means you can lock in your time with those
experts to be sure you get a spot before they are all taken.
Bonus!! #6. If you are super early you could snag a free hotel room for 2
nights (to keep you from losing another $218)
