E121 – Online Event Planning: Instigating Action Over the Internet | with Maxwell Nee

Maxwell Nee is a High-Performing Coach and marketing strategist who knows all about putting on stellar events. But when the COVID-19 pandemic took over last year, event-planning had to be reimagined to prioritize safety– and that meant taking things online. If you’re still trying to figure out how to navigate virtual spaces and make the most out of online events for your business, Maxwell is here to help with his One Big Tip.


Online events may seem intimidating if you’re used to handling everything in person, but luckily, Maxwell Nee says the process is a lot simpler than you may think. They even have their unique benefits, like less complicated logistics and the ability to provide you with tons of future content. Maxwell says one way to think about online events is as a test drive for your business.

It doesn’t have to be a difficult process. In fact, Maxwell will teach you that virtual events can be quite similar to in-person ones– and they can bring just as much success!
