Too Legitimate to Quit: Growth Strategies with a Pop Culture Spin

Are you fully harnessing the power of live events in your business? Whether in-person, hybrid, or online-only, events are unparalleled when it comes to building community, sharing thought leadership, and proving your value - but they are also all too easy to royally screw up. Which events are right for your business? What processes and team members do you need to have in place to provide a truly impactful experience?

Shay jams so much gold into this interview - including how to know when you're ready to host great big events and how to benefit the most from the smaller ones, how to avoid costly mistakes, and what we can learn - and implement - from the elaborate productions, diplomacy, and magic of Downton Abbey.
