Have you thought about hosting your own virtual summit?
We’ve talked quite a bit for the past few months about the power of hosting webinars, which are typically just you talking to your audience (perhaps with a co-host).
Virtual summits, on the other hand, typically bring together a group of speakers on a topic, with you as the host pre-recording the interviews with each speaker and then delivering them all on a particular day for registrants to watch.
Hosting your own virtual summit can boost your visibility and brand, build relationships with people in your industry, grow your email list, and bring in revenue.
(Virtual summits is one of the 5 types of webinars we talked about on our most recent webinar. You can watch the webinar recording here.)
My guest in this episode, Dr. Holly Tucker, decided to experiment and put together a virtual summit just a couple of weeks ago – and she did it all in less than 30 days.
Holly enjoyed it so much that she’s doing one again!
Holly and I talk about:
- Why she decided to do a virtual summit
- The business goals she had for the summit
- How she selected her speakers
- The logistics of putting it all together
- Lessons she learned for the next time

Hi Carol,
I have been listening to your podcast for almost well over a year and it is the one podcast I listen to consistently. As someone who would love to speak for a living, trying to figure out where to start is overwhelming. Every podcast interview brings me closer to my goal, from learning to create the framework for my story to keeping it simple so I don’t confuse my audience, using a feedback form to improve my presentation and grow my e-mail list, and knowing how much to charge. I have learned all of this from you. I have been gathering a group of professionals to host a summit. This interview was just what I needed to help me organize my first summit. I’ll let you know how it turns out! Thanks again!
