What I’ll Need From You

So this all sounds great, but what kind of work does it require of you? Let’s chat about it! My goal is to make this all as easy as humanly possible so we can all have a blast while providing great value and growing our businesses.

  1. Your application will be what I use to create the info on our Registration page, so if anything changes between now and April 9th 2025 please reach out ASAP.

  2. If you are going to provide a giveaway, I'll need a graphic provided by you for our website.

  3. LIVE DAY: Before we go live, I'll be emailing you a link to join us via zoom with your confirmed time. I'll ask you to join us 10 minutes prior so we can have a seamless transition.

Pro Tips:

● Make sure you have good lighting, facing natural light or a ring light

● Check for quality sound

● Set your space up for success

● Have a less distracting background behind you

● Make sure you are at a good eye level for your camera recording

● Have fun and bring your good energy!

VIP Experience & Giveaways

The VIP Experience will be a great option for our guests who don't want to miss out on any of our speakers.

As a way to encourage people to register, and get reminders about their 'don't want to miss speakers' our VIP guests who choose to upgrade to a paid VIP guest, will be eligible to receive a giveaway item donated by you (optional) and be eligible to participate in the breakout rooms and ask questions.

It’s totally up to you to decide whether you’d like to participate in this. While this isn’t required, it’s highly encouraged that you participate.

I will follow up and ask you to provide a graphic of your giveaway item (any coupon codes for the winners) + any links for people to access it who didn't win it.

Promotion Period

The power of an online summit comes from a group of experts coming together for a single cause, to boost small business owners and content creators. The joint promotion that happens because of that is a huge benefit to everyone involved.

Because of that, everyone is encouraged to share on social media and to email their lists during the promotion period, starting on May 14th 2025

You’ll want to share using your affiliate link (which will be set up for you) so you can get in on the 40% commission that will come from any VIP Experiences purchased.

Affiliate Details

While summits are great for overall visibility and making new connections, a little extra income never hurts either, right?

That’s exactly why I’ve set up an affiliate program for the VIP Experience where you’ll receive a commission from all sales from traffic you refer to the event.

Payouts will be made by July 11th 2025

The VIP Experience pricing will be:

● $97.00 Early Bird VIP Registration, until June 10th 2025

(Commission payout: $38.80)

● $197.00 on June 11th 2025 (Commission payout: $78.80)

To make it as easy as possible for you to generate extra income, the Speaker Resource Vault will include things like email swipe copy, social media copy, and social share graphics.

However, you’re more than welcome to write your own copy and even run your own Facebook ads. Just remember to use your affiliate link so you get properly compensated.

As with all affiliate promotions, be sure to disclose that you’re an affiliate when sharing with your audience.
