but the TES shows always made me good money and helped me to understand the directions the market goes.
i missed out a lot of other shows but i think not one of the TES shows since the 1st one in ME hotel in barcelona (where i got one of my best alcohol poisonings of my life)

I do have some sort of affiliate program, but have found that:
1) most are pirates
2) some signed up but did NOT deliver anything.
So now, I just rely on Direct, Organic, e Mail and some Tubes referral traffic.
And as to my alcohol poisoning story?
Opposite from yours. This really happened about 15 years ago at the Hotel Martinez in Cannes during the Festival...( Yes, I also have mainstream film business ). A buddy of mine bought me a " Bacardi Coke", I have complained that there was too much Bacardi, but did bought him some the same night. The next night he insisted that he buys all the drinks.Since he made some sort of big business deal that day, I've said why not have him buy me ( at that time 20 Euros a pop) some Bacardi Cokas. After 8 or 9 of them, I was so "hammered" that my then employess had to walk me to my flat ( thank God only a few meters away). The next day I did walk in again and the bartender poured me a plain coke even though I have ordered Bacardi with it. Then I have noticed that some of the regulars giggling....True story ! My buddy the night before ordered the Bacardi Cokas, like this..." Double Bacardi for me, plain Coke for him"
So I have almost got alcohol poisoning by drinking plain Coke... For a few years after every time I have walked into the Martinez bar I was asked : " Sir, do you want also Bacardi with your Bacardi Coke?"
