Summary

Alexa has a question about online summits or conferences. If she facilitates conversations between experts in her field, does she need to pay those experts? How does she go about that? Alexa’s website is http://girlinhealing.com/. In this episode I mention Episode 151 of The SPI Podcast: https://www.smartpassiveincome.com/podcasts/how-to-put-on-a-virtual-conference/. I recommend it, because it tells you exactly how to put on a successful and profitable virtual conference. Do you have a question about virtual summits? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/.
