  • "One of the things we say to all of our speakers is that people are really interested in how to do the thing. You must provide some context of why it's important, but it also needs to be practical for the audience." - Kelvin Newman

  • "Unlike other industries, in PPC and SEO, there's a culture of sharing knowledge and experience, a belief in its nobility. We aim to contribute to this knowledge sharing, allowing people to benefit from it."- Kelvin Newman

  • "Weve programmed decent chunks of time for breaks. So you've got this opportunity to speak to the exhibitors, or have that conversation with someone who you've not seen for a period of time." - Kelvin Newman
