It’s that time of year again to step back and relax with your family and friends to give thanks for all the blessings in your life. It’s been a rocky year for many in the business world, which is all the more reason to reflect on the important things outside of work like your health, your loved one’s and those less fortunate than ourselves. So, while you are getting ready for your Thanksgiving feast, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, here are a couple things coming up as the holiday season gets rolling.

Next week, Affiliate Classroom is hosting the second annual PPC Classroom Live conference taking place December 4-6 at the Hyatt Regency Orange County. This is a top-notch event with hands on training, workshops and networking opportunities for affiliates and publishers who are looking to learn more about using pay per click search marketing.

And while you are starting to prepare for your 2009 media plans, please note, we are currently working on the upcoming Issue 25 edition of the magazine. Ad placements in this issue are filling up quickly, so please contact our Advertising team to confirm availability and secure your placement in this issue – scheduled to launch at the January 2009 Affiliate Summit in Las Vegas. Ad closing deadline for Issue 25 is coming up on December 10.

Happy Thanksgiving!
