ABOUT ME

My name is Peter Li from Edmonton Alberta Canada

I am coming to San Diego for a marketing conference. I've got accodations throughout that already (thanks CS community!), so I'm only looking for a few nights *after* the conference...which would be the nights of Sunday March 24, and Monday March 25th.

I'm travelling with my good friend and roommate Tim. We're friends, not lovers.

I own a CrossFit gym in my city and Tim owns a small marketing company.

We'll have our own car so we're totally flexible. If you want to hang out, that's great. If not, then we can find our own way too. We just appreciate your hospitality, and want to make life as easy as possible for you :)

PHILOSOPHY

Personal Philosophy? hmm...lifes pretty short so stop waiting for the "perfect" time to do something and just jump in NOW with both feet. Correct course along the way.

Those who take action and put themselves at risk are usually those who are rewarded the most.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

With 10 days notice, I hopped on a plane with my best friend (now he's my business partner) and we went to Peru for 10 days. We did a 5 day trek up to Machi Pichu and that's where the idea for our CrossFit gym came to be.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've tripled my business' sales in 1 year through direct response marketing principles. I've successfully written emails that have brought in $5000 and counting. I can offer ideas on how to capture leads and convert them into sales. Or help build out a marketing campaign that works. Or help with any copywriting that will help increase sales

I've also been doing CrossFit for over 6 years and I've been a CrossFit trainer for over 3 years. I can offer advice on working out and nutrition for weight loss or strength and conditioning. I can show you the proper form and technique to do olympic style weight lifting so you don't injure yourself when your training.

I've also been DJing for over a year so i can share my experiences and techniques when it comes to turntables.
