TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

  • [00:27] Today’s Topic: What’s the ROI of a Live Event?
  • [00:45] We’re throwing a live event in June.
  • [00:55] It costs roughly $20-30 a head to do an event the right way.
  • [01:25] Since we’re not charging for the event, we aren’t making money.
  • [01:40] People say if you charge, 40-50% of attendees will not show up.
  • [01:50] People will pay and then no-show.
  • [02:57] Sponsors are how you can make a profit.
  • [03:50] Either ticket sales or sponsors will cover your costs.
  • [04:15] Our goal isn’t to make money.
  • [05:02] Clarion is an events company that goes around buying up conferences.
  • [06:08] That’s it for today!
  • [06:12] We hit our goal of 1 Million downloads! So, we will be throwing a free event in Los Angeles this June. Check out this website if you would like to attend.
