I mean, have you ever had someone, like, let's say the next event that we were running was, it's March 20th today.

What if two weeks before the live event, we did a virtual three-hour session where each speaker who is coming flying in live shared one slide from their presentation over five minutes, and we just got through 60 speakers in the virtual event two weeks before to promote the in-person one?

Have you seen something like that work well?

So maybe what we do is we do a post-virtual event with the recordings, but after the recording plays, then the real CEO comes up live.

They play the recording from the live thing and then they have the speakers come in and do Q&A.
