I enjoyed speaking about Business Issues For The Large SEM Shop this morning at SES Chicago 2006.

Jessie Stricchiola of Alchemist Media did a nice job moderating the panel. Solid presentations from David Williams of 360i (hiring, training, retaining great employees) and Peter Hershberg of Reprise Media (agency differentiation).

I spoke on why we feel percent-of-ad-spend pricing models for SEM shops are preferable to percent-of-revenue models. My colleague George Michie has written on this topic at some length: SEM Pricing Models ( Part 1, Part 2, and
Part 3)

SEORoundtable speed-posted a good fast summary already (!) Thanks, guys!
