And we couldn't find anyone to help us with this. We ended up almost doing every element of it ourselves, or at least we didn't find any influencer or brand or YouTube channel that talks about setting up events in a way that would make us reach out to them and contact them. And I was thinking just when you were talking there is we need the Greg Eisenberg or we need the, you know, specific info.
We need me for in the facilitation world. But for event management, which is, first of all, seen as a job no one really wants to do. And it's like always in the top lists of most stressful jobs to do as well. but it is a thing that a lot of companies wanna do events, especially now post COVID, a lot of companies wanna go back to doing more in-person things.

And it is really difficult to find anyone to help with that, to help with the logistics. Literally the brief would have been, We're running an event in Palo Alto. It's four days long. There's this many people. Can you fucking help us figure this out? And we'll give you a 10K commission, whatever the commission is on the thing. And we couldn't find anybody. So we did it ourselves.

So for this idea that you have, it would be amazing if you as the entrepreneur, if you were starting it, could call up event in person co and say, Hey Greg, like we're thinking about doing this thing in this town. Uh, I really do not want to be involved in the logistics of it for the first one, at least. Can you do like an event sprint for us and get it off the ground next time?

We'll do it all ourselves because you'll have connected us with all the people, but how do we get this event off the ground? Can you do an event sprint for us? Like that type of company desperately needs to exist.

Someone who is very good at organizing stuff and enjoys that and gets pleasure out of it needs to start an event management company that isn't a website with pictures of big speakers and PA systems on it. It's a video of a person showing you how to do it all yourself, Greg, content style, but for event management, honestly, I think would be a game changer.

I think you could start it in basically every city and these people will be booked out forever.
