This week on Inside the Greenroom we have not one but FIVE incredible Meeting Planners and OPS’s (Operation and Production Specialists) that control some of the most powerful stages and events in the world on with us today.
You may recognize their names from past episodes, but I promise you have never heard any practical wisdom, honest advice, or success strategies like in today’s podcast.
Join this panel-style conversation from our recent event A360i, with TedX Organizer Dolores Hirschmann, Traffic Conversion Summit’s Roland Frasier, Sage Event Management owner Bari Baumgardner, Jarrod Glandt President of Cardone Enterprises, and our very own ‘secret weapon’, and owner of Ideas Unlimited Seminars Pat Quinn.
What You’re Going to Get:
You will get the inside track on what is working and happening in the events world today.
Speakers:
Hear their opinions on what they think EVERY speaker should be doing in this crucial time. Learn how you can grow your platform while also becoming so essential that event hosts will not forget your name and practical advice on:
- What to do if an event doesn’t reply to your email
- How to make the most out of the new digital event opportunities
- How to go from “the best-kept secret to keynote”
- Tips on mastering your craft
Meeting Planners and Event Host:
