Chris Kramer, NETexponent media director and cofounder, has been appointed to the Advisory Board of Affiliate Summit, Inc., producer of the only conferences and tradeshows exclusively tailored to affiliate marketing professionals.

The Advisory Board consists of thought leaders within the affiliate marketing industry and will serve as a think tank to help Affiliate Summit expand and further develop the conference series. They will also act as an ongoing sounding board to offer expertise and advice on maters such as content deliverables, featured speakers, etc.

“Since its inception, the Affiliate Summit conference has provided the ultimate forum for affiliate marketers to meet, learn and share the ideas that shape our industry,” said Kramer. “I feel privileged to be chosen as a board member and will work hard to ensure this event continues to offer the best speakers and discussion topics possible to their ever-growing audience.”
