Ep.110 | What’s the ROI of In-Person Events & Why We Don’t Care with Shay & Mariah
Shay and I have been doing this thing for years now; pick a conference, book the flights, convince ourselves it's a business expense, and every single time, we always overhear other attendees talking about “what’s the ROI of the event…”
What did they get out of it? Was it worth it? Did they get an leads/connections?
And TBH, we just don’t think about it like that.
Join us in this episode as we dive deeper into the retreats and recent conferences we’ve attended to hear our honest take about how we approach them, keep them fun, and why we KEEP prioritizing them in our budgets.
If you've ever justified (or talked yourself out of) buying that ticket, this one's for you. We get into how we actually choose what's worth our time and money, how to get something out of it once you're there, and why the "return" isn't always what you'd expect…
We hope you enjoy the episode 🥳
