GUEST: How to Really Maximize Events 🤝 w/Bob Vaez CEO at EventMobi | Ep. 426
Description
You think events are just about sessions and swag, but Jay Schwedelson and Bob Vaez make the case that the real ROI happens before showtime and after hours. From pre-show outreach that actually drives booth traffic to the surprisingly strategic world of name badges, Bob shares hard-won plays that save budget and build relationships you’ll still be cashing in on months later.
