Ep 99: Virtual Summit Email list ethics (ft. Ashlyn Carter)
In this episode, we’re having a conversation about public speaking for business at virtual summits and protecting the integrity of your email list. I know as a business owner we truly want to serve people well. We want speaking opportunities we can show up to and pour into our audience, but sometimes we don't know how to identify if a virtual summit is going to be a good fit for us, especially when we're asked to share all of the summit information with our email list (that we are really trying to serve and protect). To unpack this subject I brought in my dear friend Ashlyn Carter to have an honest conversation about what email list ethics really need to look like and how we can approach virtual summits with a fresh perspective.
