    Gentlemen,

    I very much enjoyed your August 2015 show! If you are ever in the Orlando/Melbourne, FL area, please let me know! I webcast multi-national corporation events for a living (we do about 50,000 separate events a year globally) and would be happy to do so for you show as I am a complete photo geek. Live webcasting brings in the audience and is much more interactive as you can take questions from the live audience, push polls out, do give-aways, etc.

    Sincerely,
    Andy Kochendorfer
