There is dead air at the end as one person didn't hang up.

I think it's still uploading... size is changing depending on who grabs it when :)

I have it and am listening to it now. Sounds good,

Thanks, Haiko. Didn't get to sit in on this due to the day j*b. I'm looking forward to listening to the mp3.

In the future, could some of these calls be in the evenings, say 9pm ET, so the poor unfortunate souls here on the west coast who haven't escaped their cubicles yet can participate? :D

Haiko, some pipe you've got there!!!!

That file's big, but downloaded to my desktop in a jiffy. Appreciate that!

Thanks for posting the call. This was fantastic. :super:

Great thanks Haiko!

So far I feel like I'm eavesdropping on a personal conversation between Haiko and Rolet. LOL

Just wait until Rolet does the dishes :D :sssh:

Just wait until Rolet does the dishes :D :sssh:

I don't think that was Rolet, she was driving at the time. LOL

Just finished listening to the entire call - Bravo! Good input everyone :thumbsup:

The gist of the conversation was inspiring and exactly what I think this industry needs: taking action and actually DOING something about the issues, not just complaining about them.

Haiko, I think a lot of us have been waiting for you to take the lead on this type of situation and I'm so happy you finally did. Out of anyone in this industry, I believe you have the greatest following and the greatest level of trust, which is key to bringing a group of individuals together to act as a unified front with a common interest.

And yeah, there's something about putting a voice or a face to a name that makes things more solid. :-)

*wondering how Trisha can put a report together on her loss numbers.* :D

I think once people get used to the call format and realize that other people can hear them and start using their mute buttons and not be on speaker phones this is going to be the best thing that could happen to the industry. People talking, listening and asking questions, discussing issues, and having the ability to have affiliates, opms, ams, and merchants all in the same "room". News was shared, issues discussed, hopefully the air was cleared on some things and people started listening to each other and no one was "the bad guy".

This is perfect and I am sorry I wasn't able to be on the call (Rexanne and I were actually in the same situation, lol, on the way to the airport!) but I totally plan to be involved in future calls and will be sending people to listen to this one to get them started.
