Added ACEs Conference to conference list.

macadmininfo commented 6 years ago

Looking at this, there’s no real “Mac Admin” content? It’s a conference for businesspeople on running their businesses. Thinking more about this, I don’t think this is a fit for this particular list. Am I missing something?

justinesgar commented 6 years ago

It’s not for business people as a whole - but IT Consultants, and specifically Apple consultants - hence it’s following. Wouldn’t those people be considered “Mac Admins”?

Having not been able to attend, I’m genuinely asking: what’s the content of the event? I understand it as business advice for people running their (Apple-focused) consulting business. The resources on this list are focused on the technical aspects of being a Mac/Apple admin.

Maybe it belongs under “jobs”? So, if you’re looking to strike out on your own? Or maybe the “Conferences” section needs subheadings?

I’m always fine with hearing that I’m being too pedantic, but Aces really is different than everything else here. So, just trying to figure out the right fit.

Yes it business advice and practices for the Apple Consultants. But it leans a little into technical when we start talking about tools such as Addigy or Watchman.

I get what you are saying where your site is more technical focused, but to say these people or this conference isn’t for “MacAdmins” is I think where we get hung up. These people are still MacAdmins in my eyes. Just b/c you want to better yourself in a non-technical way doesn’t make you any less of an Admin. Maybe put ACEs up with an asterisk (like someone in the hall of fame who has beaten a record but there is just something small amiss)?

They may be MacAdmins in some way, but in this context, they’re business owners. They’re attending Aces to improve their business acumen. Would that be fair to say?

justinesgar commented 6 years ago

Ed -

Yes that would be a fair statement.

OK - I handled this by adding “Technical” and “Business” sections to Conferences. Added Aces under “Business” Sorry for the delay.

justinesgar commented 6 years ago

Thanks so much Ed.

Much appreciated.
