[@jamirbroadnax2973]

Awesome video! Definitely got an idea!

[@jasonblake18]

Loved this video Noah. Great insight into the essentials aspects of planning and delivering a conference. Task for today, design my ideal conference!

[@underdogmedia1802]

I've watched most of the videos on the channel. This is definitely in my top 10.

[@ChrisRawls]

We're not going to just skate pass "head full of hair with the three stripes in the side Noah".
(Edit: I got an App Sumo ad on this video. Noah is everywhere)

[@noahkagan]

Haha Chris

[@MarketingHarry]

Conferences are not boring, at least these that I was part of. You gave many awesome ideas as usually! 👍

[@GrowWithWill]

I remember that old school interview with Ramit!

EXCELLENTE, ENJOY YOUR TACOS MAN, THIS VIDEO WAS SOMEAWE.

[@nicolasgramnea1324]

One more great video. Shout-out to Romania 👌
It's that a "high ticket closer" thumbnail?

[@noahkagan]

It’s a power pose!! Ha

[@SaveThouandsOnWater]

Thanks for putting out great content Noah, this one is actually very insightful as we are debating how to start making events to present our investments in Assisted Living Facilities to others who might want to do the same.

[@ricardomarquezeledutuber8705]

Noah, you've just delivered the exact info I've been looking for, actually for quite a while (kind of saved my life... no kidding). Thx man!!

[@djjj.]

Timely video!!!
I'm starting Financial virtual events this month! wish me luck! :)

[@delibertylaw]

Noah's advice, consistently = GOLD

[@TheIngPin]

"Minimum Viable Budget" is key. People waste a lot of money on event operations that dont add to the attendee experience

[@shosho4real]

Thanks Noah... You're saving lives here. Especially mine

[@noahkagan]

Blessed.

[@AnneLopezlovesLife]

This is such a dream. This is exactly what I wanted to do. Great video as always Noah. :D

[@TheOskarww]

Wow you the man! Brain and ideas are on fire right now!

[@thelighthouseacademy2291]

Love Uncle Noah. You're an inspiration sir!

[@wanderermusic2459]

Thanks Noah!!

[@masterbaiter4791]

Spice it up baby 💥

[@smooth7689]

Great content as always

[@VID801]

Great stuff. Thanks for the ideas.

[@nocarbsnation]

Have the dream, just no budget haha
I need to get creative!

[@jefftatarchuk]

Solid advice!

[@mz6367]

I'm used to listening to long boring conferences but i guess your videos has changed my assumption about conferences

[@ivanstipic4300]

5:24 love that flag

[@randomlyrelatable1372]

[@WillsThoughts]

Your vid production game is up

[@theEdwardKosmo]

Romania salutes back!

[@daved5023]

Bro that is brilliant.. strategy..

[@alphaindianmen]

Cool Advice

[@benediktziesche]

Nice video, did you pay all the money upfront of your events?

[@noahkagan]

Yea. Lots of it. Tried to keep as low as possible.

[@blueberrymedia3191]

Hey noah big fan from india 🇮🇳

[@chriswe67]

Trying to find the spreadsheet that you discussed with sam parr for conferences , help???

[@noahkagan]

I believe you can find it on okdork.com

[@chriswe67]

@@noahkagan Im onboard for the conference , i love it , but what should i do a conference about? im in ny/ct i work private driving, limo work i hate it!!!! Just thinking any ideas to do a confernce? Topics? Im going to go with the sam parr/ and your blueprint. Help???? I will probably write on beehive newsletter/content , just need a few topics for the conference, any suggestions anyone???

[@vv-dl5tx]

Lets organize some conferences

[@aks9545]

That was great! But how confident were you that'd you'd break even? I mean, 40k is like 2/3 of your paycheck.
Also, what topic did you make the discussion about? I mean you can't just call whoever

[@AlexAlexanderRVparkinvestor]

How bout a conference ranch in Hawaii? Sleeps 50.

[@ibraheemkhan7134]

I don’t know why I’m watching this lol, I’m not even planning on starting a conference

[@nocarbsnation]

What was the profit on the $200K?

[@johanneszwilling]

🤫 The more I'm getting into this mindset, thanks to this content, the more I'm thinking: "😓 F*ck my schooling!"

[@guddusharma4604]

Hey noah, are you married?

[@noahkagan]

Nope

[@guddusharma4604]

Wow

[@sergioypw]

You had hair when you started organizing conferences and now you don't. I'll stay away from organizing conferences.

[@vip-cw1st]

Conferences are boring

[@noahkagan]

Debatable. You never came to community next :)

[@vip-cw1st]

Biggest successes have connected people and things...appsumo is doing the same...I purchased today...i purchased email badge, etc

[@51star]

Love it! Great insight! #FollowOut
