So this all sounds great, but what kind of work does it require of you? Let’s chat about it! My goal is to make this all as easy as humanly possible so we can all have a blast while providing great value and growing our businesses.

1. Your application will be what I use to create the info on our Registration page, so if anything changes between now and December 15th, please reach out ASAP.

2. If you are going to provide a giveaway, I'll need a graphic provided by you for our website.

3. LIVE DAY: Before we go live, I'll be emailing you a link to join us via zoom with your confirmed time. I'll ask you to join us 10 minutes prior so we can have a seamless transition.

Pro Tips:

● Make sure you have good lighting, facing natural light or a ring light

● Check for quality sound

● Set your space up for success

● Have a less distracting background behind you

● Make sure you are at a good eye level for your camera recording

● Have fun and bring your good energy!

The VIP Experience will be a great option for our guests who don't want to miss out on any of our speakers.

As a way to encourage people to register, and get reminders about their 'don't want to miss speakers' our VIP guests who choose to upgrade to a paid VIP guest, will be eligible to receive a giveaway item donated by you (optional) and be eligible to participate in the breakout rooms and ask questions.

It’s totally up to you to decide whether you’d like to participate in this. While this isn’t required, it’s highly encouraged that you participate.

I will follow up and ask you to provide a graphic of your giveaway item (any coupon codes for the winners) + any links for people to access it who didn't win it.

The power of an online summit comes from a group of experts coming together for a single cause, to boost small business owners and content creators. The joint promotion that happens because of that is a huge benefit to everyone involved.

Because of that, everyone is encouraged to share on social media and to email their lists during the promotion period, starting on December 15th 2024

You’ll want to share using your affiliate link (which will be set up for you) so you can get in on the 40% commission that will come from any VIP Experiences purchased.

While summits are great for overall visibility and making new connections, a little extra income never hurts either, right?

That’s exactly why I’ve set up an affiliate program for the VIP Experience where you’ll receive a commission from all sales from traffic you refer to the event.

Payouts will be made by February 28th 2024.

The VIP Experience pricing will be:

● $47 Early Bird VIP Registration, until January 16th 2024 (Commission payout: $18.80)

● $97 on January 17th 2024 (Commission payout: 38.80)

To make it as easy as possible for you to generate extra income, the Speaker Resource Vault will include things like email swipe copy, social media copy, and social share graphics.

However, you’re more than welcome to write your own copy and even run your own Facebook ads. Just remember to use your affiliate link so you get properly compensated.

As with all affiliate promotions, be sure to disclose that you’re an affiliate when sharing with your audience.

Here’s a roundup of our key dates:

● December 7th- Speaker Application Deadline

● December 8th - Speaker Selections

● December 12th - Deadline for Contracts/ Agreements Signed

● December 13th - Speaker Graphics & Schedule Finalized

● December 13th - Speaker Portal created with graphics, swipe copy, etc.

● December 18th - Announcements & Promo Begins

Nutshell version:

1. Due to privacy laws, we will not give speakers a list of everyone who registers. However, we will provide a list of those who opted-in to receive communcation from our speakers. Therefore, you are welcome to share a link to your pages/ sites to promote your offers and encourage sign ups.

2. Speaker compensation will include affiliate payouts, event promotion, and digital promotional materials. If you share your affiliate link and someone upgrades their free ticket to the VIP experience, you will receive a financial payout.

3. Speakers will receive a copy of their recorded live presentation, that you are free to do what you like with.

I'm no amateur, my first summit I did was called "Leve Up to Scale Up" during Covid. It was so fun!

My previous summits "Elevate your Online Presence" received RAVE REVIEWS from both panelists and attendees. Here's the feedback I got:

"The panels that I was able to attend were great. One of the best summits I’ve attended. The way you organized all of it, the thought and cafe you put into how you communicated with speakers but also just how things were organized and set up — phenomenal. I love how you’ve thought about giveaways. The way you communicated with us. The back end of streamyard. Girl everything was fucking high touch. Best experience. You should bottle and sell it."

"Honestly, I was honored to be one of the 4 men panelists. It was great to share some of my knowledge with your audience and from people taking notes, I'm glad I could give your audience nuggets of info to help with their business. You did an amazing job with the selection of the speakers as ALL provided great content. 1st for me.  but this was outstanding and so much value provided."

"It was such a great summit. great idea of putting all the speakers into panels."

"It was so much fun. loved the ability to jump on and off and see the speakers and information that were of interest."

"I think you have done an AMAZING job! 💖"

"Loved the panels. Found it a lot more interesting to listen to panels sharing ideas"

"By far the BEST summit I've ever attended. You need to package your formula and sell it"

Elevate your Customer Experience Feedback:

"Your summits are so well thought out, organized, detailed and the follow up and reminders are amazing."

"Both summits that I have attended have been the best run, most seamless experiences. I haven't attended a lot of online summits, but others have been plagued with technical difficulties, or felt more like sales pitches than information sharing, and I was not interested in working with the presenters. With your approach, I feel like I am invited into a community of like minded people who are willing to share their experiences and knowledge, and I am more likely to be willing to pay for their expertise."

"I don't have anything to compare it with but I will say I left extremely inspired and grateful. You took care of everything so all we had to do was come and serve the people..which I always get excited about. You were super organized and brought together a kickass group of entrepreneurs!!!! Thank you for the opportunity friend"
