We've found that the guys wandering around the show floor and parties provide great brand identity for us, and they're good at getting the word out about our affiliate programs and generating interest in general in our products and services...
and we strongly encourage them to stay circulating and talk to people rather than to hang on the sideline and get drunk.
And most of our guys are also pretty intelligent and know our products reasonably well, so they can actually carry on a sensible conversation with anyone who asks them about what we do... so we consider it an extension of our regular networking.
(Plus, we're also shooting content for a DVD while we're in Vegas... so they'll be busy doing that at least part of the time...)
