389: How to Host a Successful Virtual Summit for Influence, Impact, and Income

Liam Austin made $50k off his first online event, and hasn't looked back. Since then, Liam has hosted another 17 virtual summits and online business networking events.

In total, these events have brought together more than 400 speakers and 100,000 business owners.

Virtual summits allow you to connect with industry leaders and influencers in your niche while growing your own audience.

• sell access to the recordings after they expire

That's why I invited Liam on the show.
