In a departure from the norm, this episode of Marketing Hyperdrive features a snippet from an interview I did with the folks at Social Chatter, all about virtual events. We discuss:

  1. My approach to Virtual Events and the platforms I love today.

  2. How I foster brand partnerships.

  3. How I leverage influencers as virtual event speakers.
