Welcome, Pedro Adao, Inside the Greenroom!
A big mistake we’ve made in the past at Advance Your Reach is running a BIG event WITHOUT having a big community or following. We did them...but they were HARD to fill. Since then, we advise clients not to run their own events until they have a community established.
However, in this episode, Pedro Adao proves us wrong!
He filled seats for his first event WITHOUT having a large community, and spills the beans on how he did it – IN A VERY NICHE MARKET!! We also cover the economics of filling seats through paid advertising, the content you should bring to the table for live events, and how to be a great guest speaker!
Pedro Adao is the author of The Finished Life, and Retired and Free. He is the founder of Fortress Financial and of The 100X Academy, a movement of Christian Entrepreneurs who desire higher levels of income, influence, and impact throughout their life and their business. Pedro has been a long-time friend and joined us at Reach Live 2019 as a judge at the speak-off!
We also cover:
- How Pedro filled the seats for his first event WITHOUT a large community or list (note: he essentially broke one of my “rules” for running your own BIG events, and pulled it off. Learn how!)
- The magical power of creating a sense of “community” online BEFORE the live event date
- The harsh reality of selling tickets online with paid advertising
- The type of content you should be bringing to your own event that will make an audience WANT to show up live!
- Invited to speak at someone else’s event? Here’s what you should do to your Signature Talk
- Why live events are more important now more than ever
- And much more!
