About 100 independent agents and subagents attended the Peer-to-Peer Networking Mixer Tuesday afternoon. The event, sponsored by PHONE+ and master agency PlanetOne Communications, offered a forum for agents to network and discuss their common business issues.

In space, when forces of immeasurable strength meet head on, new galaxies are said to emerge. The principle applies here on Earth, too, and that kind of cosmic event shook the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas this week when 3,200 people gathered to take part in the Spring 2010 Channel Partners Conference & Expo.

At this year's Channel Partners Conference & Expo, there was a clear energy, attitude and “mood” difference over the 2009 show. I sensed much more enthusiasm and optimism overall. At the same time though, I think with so much transformation and things evolving so quickly in the channel, the anxiety level is still high.

It's been several years since I had the opportunity to attend a Channel Partners show. And I have to tell you, I was blown away by you, the partners and suppliers.
