Welcome, Jarrod Glandt, Inside the Greenroom! In this episode, we discuss the number one challenge every meeting planner faces – filling up the seats at their event! PLUS we dive into how a speaker can win large stages and events.
Jarrod Glant is the meeting planner for the largest entrepreneurial event in the WORLD – 10X Growth Conference. This was the biggest stage I’ve ever been on! This episode dives into the nitty-gritty details of what it takes to fill an arena with over 30,000 people.
