Meet Us in 2021!

Ok, ok  you got us. Maybe not just yet. It’s already April and we miss everything about traveling to shows and meeting our affiliates. The high fives, fist bumps, hugs, drinks, extravagant dinners and the long walks on the beach seems like things of the past at this point. But looking around at some of the industry events, things seem to be getting back to normal which is great.

The FFN team currently doesn’t have any plans for travel this year, but we’ll keep you posted if things change from our end. As travel restriction get a bit lighter from country to country and more vaccines are administered we’ll continue to reassess the current situation. Our first concern is always the safety and care of our staff and affiliates so we’ve postponed travel for a bit longer.

Although we’ve postponed physical travel you can still catch us at all the industry virtual shows. Check out our next attending shows below.

May 3-5 AdWorld Conference
May 24-27 Xbiz Miami

FriendFinder Networks to Attend The Phoenix Forum

FriendFinder Networks (FFN) announced today that a team of the company’s top executives will be hitting The 2017 Phoenix Forum (TPF) to provide current and potential affiliates with new opportunities to promote its vast network of adult dating, social networking, and camming sites.

Attending the event will be FFN CEO Jon Buckheit, along with Marketing Vice President Charlyn McNamara, Digital Marketing Manager Katie Dillon, Business Development Executive Kalyn Sanders, and Business Development Managers Courtney Rudolph and Paul Hoang.

Rudolph, who has attended the event for the last 7 years, says “The Phoenix Forum is one of my favorite trade shows because the entire hotel is shut down just for the event, so you know everyone you see is ready to talk business and make a deal.” She adds, “The beautiful location, friendly faces, and great weather always make for a good time as well.”

The FFN team will be available from March 22 through March 26 at the Tempe Mission Palms Hotel for meetings and networking.
“We are very selective in deciding which conferences to invest our time and money into, and The Phoenix Forum has been consistently strong for us,” says McNamara, who will be attending the event for the first time. “I look forward to developing new partner relationships and fortifying existing ones.”
