Virtually There: Post-Con Perspectives for Remarkable Events

Virtually There - Post-Con Perspectives for Remarkable Events

During 2020 and early 2021, I attended and spoke at more online conferences, expos and events than I can count – literally! I lost track somewhere north of 65, but am guessing it’s probably well over 100.

So why am I telling you this?

Because I compiled several spiral notebooks full of details about how they structured their events, marketed and engaged with attendees, and promoted their exhibitors and sponsors. Now I’m curating all those discoveries and insights into a membership where you can learn from them too. (I guess you could say I attended dozens of events so you don’t have to!)

This is now a special section within our Exhibit Marketers Café Community.
