They did. You offered them exposure. They smiled and said thank you. And then nothing happened for either of you. In this Dynamic Dialogue After Show, Megan Martin and media strategist Beth Nydick pull back the curtain on the unspoken agreement between event organizers and speakers that nobody is formalizing , the myth of exposure as compensation, and what it actually looks like to build a media strategy around your event that works for the other 362 days of the year. Beth brings her TV producer lens to the events industry and what she sees is not a logistics problem. It is a media problem. Events are the most powerful content machine in the world and most organizations have absolutely no plan for what happens after the carpet gets rolled up. They also get into BravoCon as the event strategy blueprint the B2B world refuses to study, why micro niche creators with 8,000 followers will outperform your celebrity keynote, and why the conversation you need to be having with your speakers starts the day they get booked, not the day they hit the stage. Plus a full Bravo break because they are both Bravo girls and they earned it.
