Conferences are where people meet to network to get themselves and their companies to the next, next level.
I recommend working super smart and super hard. I’d use insider secrets that the cool kids are now calling “hacking”.
Larry Chiang (@LarryChiang) 12/26/12 9:59 AM “Hacking Conferences.” It’s a sub franchise under #WTDTYASBS
If you’d like to hack a conference, email me answers to these questions. Yes its ok that your show is 24 hours away
-1- What venue is it in?!
-2- What days are they? April 12-15 is much different if it is Monday to THURS Versus Thursday – Sunday VERSUS Tuesday to Friday
-3- Have you heard what my mentor taught me about getting “home field advantage on the road”?!
-4- Do you know what LTMVP is? Google less than minimum viable party.
-5- Have you heard of ENGR 145?!
ENGR145’s Anchor Concept: Lemonade and Gua Gua Guacamole
It moves you to the right on the entrepreneur bell curve
In the class you execute a MVBP (minimum viable blog post). And you write two of them before the conference even starts.
-6- What is your conference intention?!
-7- Do you as a woman have a conference mentor
Do you have phrases to counter unwanted sexual advances?
-8- Do you have a YouTube media strategy that works even at packed conferences like sxsw?!
-9- Have you heard of the business recipe where you go from “crashing the conference to speaking at the conference”?! Google ‘Gua Gua Guacamole’ for a list of recipes my mentor taught me via a 1983 book: WTDTYAHBS
