Summary
#892 Our virtual fatigue has brought live events back in a big way. Whether it's a dozen people in a coffee shop or thousands in a convention center, you too can bring your followers together and foster real connections! In this episode, I break down everything I’ve learned from hosting events of all sizes. From mastermind meetups to Card Party, my massive Pokémon event, I share the numbers behind what worked and what didn’t. I've spent everything from $47 for coffee and pastries to six figures bringing people together, and all these events were worth it! That said, listen in on today's session to avoid the hosting mistakes that can cost you! I discuss how to start small and then scale to uplevel your brand and revenue. I dive into the logistics of face-to-face meetups and share my blueprint to help you succeed and unlock the hidden benefits of live events! Enjoy!
