Welcome, Chris Ducker from the
UK, Inside the Greenroom!
In this episode, we take a deep
dive into running your own event! How do you not only bring
that event from big dream to reality, but also create an AMAZING
experience for your attendees!?
Chris has been hosting events
since 2011, and has been able to consistently sell out his own
events by sending out just ONE email to his list, which is unheard
of to me. Make sure you listen to hear his secret. We don’t stop there! We talk music, scripting
your event, implementing skits, minor touches you can add for your
audience, and much more!
What if you just want to BE on
an international stage? Chris reveals the best practices for
Americans, and locals who wants to speak on stages in the United
Kingdom, as well as how you can get his attention and ultimately land
his stage.
