For far too long, we've been handed a playbook of unsavory techniques – false scarcity, anxiety-inducing tactics, and those infamous bait-and-switch webinars. These tactics might have been peddled as the golden ticket to success, but deep down, they left us feeling uneasy.

But guess what? There's a luminescent path forward, and it's all about marketing with a soulful spark, unwavering integrity, and a dose of good old honesty.

Now, here's where the real magic happens. Imagine a gathering of exceptional minds, speakers who are poised to unveil the secrets of connecting, captivating, and cultivating without resorting to pressure, stress, or the dreaded ickiness of traditional online marketing.

This isn't just another mundane summit where you simply listen and nod along. No way! Brace yourselves for an interactive extravaganza that'll have you on the edge of your seat. We're talking about an experience that leaves an indelible mark, blending exhilaration with invaluable insights.

When the curtain falls on this event, you won't just walk away with newfound knowledge. You'll carry a treasure trove of solutions, connections that feel like a warm hug, and resources that'll fuel your journey to the stars. Oh, and let's not forget those action steps – tangible, actionable strategies that'll launch you into a stratosphere of success.

So, who's invited to this electrifying rendezvous? Heart-centered entrepreneurs and solopreneurs – the trailblazers who dared to dream beyond the conventional. These are the individuals who believe that business is about more than profit; it's about making a genuine impact. They've had enough of the smoke and mirrors, and they're ready to sculpt a future where values and growth walk hand in hand.

Get ready to immerse yourself in a revolution that's energetic, engaging, and entirely yours for the taking. The countdown begins now! 🎉🌟

Three Day Format

This event is formatted around Michael Whitehouse's Nine Foundational Questions of Business.

The first day will focus on the first 3: What are your values? What is your goal? How do you measure success?
It is about alignment, values, goals, clarity. To be authentic you have to know what you are are authentic to.

The second day will focus on the second 3: What problem do you solve? How? For whom?
These questions are about offer clarity and alignment. Topics around pricing, product positioning, target markets, etc fit into the second day.

The third day will focus on the third 3: How do you turn prospects into customers? Audience into prospects? Strangers into audience?
This is the sales and marketing day about tactics, tools, techniques, and strategies to attract and convert and audience.

If you have a preference for which day you fit into, please include it in the notes. We will put you in the day that we feel you best fit for based on content and availability of speaking slots.

Your Speaker Experience

This event is produced by Michael Whitehouse, and Michael creates events that a fun, engaging, exciting, and valuable to the audience and the speakers. This is not a watch with your camera off while you do something else event. This is not a drop in, give your talk, and leave event. This is an interactive event!

We want to create an event that you will enjoy speaking at and get value from. More interaction is always better than less interaction. That keeps the energy up in the room, keeps the audience engaged, and makes it more fun for you.

You are welcome offer your gift (the one you put in the application) during your talk as long as it is low key and not pitchy. Offering good. Infomercial bad.

15 minutes is not a lot of time to go deep, so you are welcome to invite the audience to a follow up event where you can do much more into depth on your topic. It is required that your talk during our event provide valuable, actionable information. It is recommended that your follow up event do the same as well, and not simply be a pitch to sell something without offering more value during that event.

Pre-Event Speaker Meet-Up

In our experience, one of the greatest forms of value our speakers get is the connection with other speakers. They have found clients, vendors, mentors, partners, and friends among their fellow speakers.

To facilitate this, we will be hosting a 90 minute, pre-event speaker meetup, dates TBD. 

This is not required, but is highly recommended because of the value it will provide for you.

Event Style

The event will be a live, Zoom-based event running 11 AM to 5 PM Eastern Time each of the days of the event.

We're aiming for engagement. We want an event where people feel they are part of something, not where they feel like they are watching a YouTube video.

This means that we'll have interactive activities. It means we encourage interactive presentations.

It also means that we encourage speakers to be there for as much of the event as possible because you'll be making some connections while you're there. (Live speakers are required to attend for at least 2 hours of the event)

Schedule Structure

Speaking slots will be 15 minutes.

Each hour will be formatted as follows:

0-15 Speaker

15-30 Interaction

30-45 Speaker

45-60 Interaction

Interaction may be speed networking, hot seat coaching, Q&As, or anything else.

Do not assume that the interaction block after your talk is for your Q&A, but if you do get a good flow going with the audience and they are highly engaged, I may choose to just let that keep going if the vibe is good.

Recordings

All presentations will be recorded. 

Any speakers who achieve the minimum number of opt-ins (which should be all of you, right?) will have their presentation shared out to the entire list of registrants in the days after the event.

Additionally, some videos may be shared out to attendees or others on my list for various reasons including promoting that speaker's affiliate link or program.
