Welcome back to Part 2 of our post REACH Live series! In Episode 1 of this series, my wife Kim and I shared why we paused our event, REACH Live for almost two years, and what led us to doing it again this May.

In this episode, we break down this year’s REACH Live event – the good, the bad and the ugly. It was the best event we have ever done, but not everything was perfect, so we are opening the curtain and sharing the behind-the-scenes of what we didn’t do well, and the lessons learned – so you can improve your events AND up level your speaking game!

We packed this episode FULL of nuggets - and you’ll be hearing from six people, including our Director of Operations, the Speak-Off Winner – Erik Salzenstein, our Head Coach, our Director of Customer Experience, my son, and our Emcee–who has been at all six REACH Lives–my good friend Keith Yackey.

And we cover: - What we did great, and what wasn’t so hot, the #1 thing we FINALLY did right - What made this the BEST Speak-Off finals we’ve ever had - The strategies our Speak-Off winner used to win PLUS the offers he’s had since REACH Live - The “Speaker Superpowers” that top speakers have and YOU can begin to implement - So much more

Take 1 or 2 things from this episode to bring to your events or to your own speaking. If you do that each week, the compounding effect will create exponential improvements!

1. What Is The Greenroom? May 13, 2019

Show notes

Let's connect! Go to advanceyourreach.com and like us on Facebook.

What is the Greenroom? A Greenroom is a place where speakers (and other performers) relax when they aren’t on stage –it’s a place to connect with the Event Producers and understand the INSIDE scoop. If you are not on the inside, you are on the outside.

In 2003, my life was changed FOREVER by 1 man on a stage – and helping people use stages has become my life’s work. My team and I have booked 25,000 Stages worldwide and have experienced first hand some of the most powerful events.

Along the way, I’ve become friends with the most influential Meeting Planners and Speakers in the world – and now I’m letting you backstage – inside my personal Greenroom, bringing their expertise on how they run their events, and how they make decisions on their speakers.

In this first episode, I share the power that Events and Speakers have had in my life, the story of why I dedicated my life to them, and how the “Inside the Greenroom” Podcast will help you each and every episode.
