End of an Era! Final #NoMoreBadZoom, but never fear...
The very last #NoMoreBadZoom Virtual Happy Hour will be held on Friday, May 3 at 5 pm ET. Whether this is your first time attending or it's been years since you attended, I encourage you to join us to hang with supportive entrepreneurs and hear a brief presentation about business strategy from Jason Van Orden . Register for the Zoom link: www.NoMoreBadZoom.com.
I hosted the first #NoMoreBadZoom Virtual Happy Hour on March 13, 2020 - and ran it weekly for two years before shifting to monthly for another two years.
Read the p.s. to find out what new free virtual networking events I'm offering starting tomorrow.

#NoMoreBadZoom may be ending, but there are several opportunities to level up your Zoom game...
Do you use Zoom to make money as a presenter, facilitator, trainer, consultant, or coach? You probably know the basics of Zoom. The problem is that basic skills are not enough to stand out as a top-notch virtual presenter.
To level up your Zoom game, you don't need a high-tech recording studio with a green screen, hair light (that's a real thing), and fancy software. Instead, focus on improving your technique rather than your technology.
🗣️ I'm a guest speaker at three upcoming public events discussing this topic. Each session has a slightly different focus. Which will you be attending?

Despite many online entrepreneurs embracing Zoom even before the pandemic made it a household name, even 6 & 7-figure entrepreneurs are facing challenges, snafus, and disruptions while launching new products or delivering their programs. Attend this event to learn specific steps to mitigate these disruptions so your participants can focus on your content.
