Episode Description
#766 What happens when a CRO expert ditches slides, skips keynotes, and bets big on human connection in a post-Zoom world? In this episode, host Brien Gearin welcomes back longtime friend and fellow Cincinnati native Sahil Patel, CEO of Spiralyze, for a conversation that goes beyond CRO and A/B testing. Sahil shares a behind-the-scenes look at why his team decided to launch their first-ever live event, Above the Fold, and what it really takes to plan an in-person experience that people are excited to travel for. From choosing the right location and audience to designing hands-on workshops, pricing tickets, and balancing sponsors without ruining the attendee experience, this episode is packed with practical insights for entrepreneurs and marketers considering hosting their own live event — whether for 10 people or 1,000!
What we discuss with Sahil:
