Turning Trade Shows Upside-Down with The UnConference - Vincent Pugliese

Turning Trade Shows Upside-Down with The UnConference - Vincent Pugliese

Author: Jim Cermak May 20, 2024 Duration: 24:08

We're about to turn the trade show world upside down. I am honored to have on a phenomenal guest today who is an author, speaker, and the founder of Total Life Freedom, where he helps people time and money freedom in their life. And today has started Membership Freedom where he's helping businesses develop memberships in all sorts of different niches.

Welcome Vincent Pugliese to Trade Show University!

The concept which Vincent is proposing is called The Unconference which focuses not on keynote speakers, workshops, breakout sessions, or a show floor full of exhibitors, but an event laser-focused on making key strategic connections happen among attendees!

These are connections that happen naturally or serendipitously at trade shows and events, but only in the "in-between" times and out in the hallways.

Now The Unconference is designed to make more of those connections happen and happen more powerfully! It's happening in Sarasota FL, Feb 3-5, 2025.
