Christina's Final Piece Of Wisdom
"I'm super excited for you and I'm very proud of you that you think of this option because we have a lot of funnels we can use in order to, to start or grow a business. And I believe that when you get started, summits are the absolute best way to figure out your ideal clients, to get to know thought leaders in your market and in your niche and to build confidence that you need because you want to start as a leader or you want to improve as a leader. That also it’s a lot of different things, what you need to think about in order to create something good. You're also proud to share and promote with the speakers. So I also invite you from the heart to figure out if there is a business coach out there who shows you the framework. So Mark is just very close to you, you know him so well. So if you would love to run a summit I can also invite you just to check out his framework, to go to other coaches who are close to you and you know well and you trust because it's so important for you and your business. And especially right now in Corona, it's your chance to make an impact and really to serve and to solve some big problems that people have. So do not just try to put it all together. But I wish you all love success and this is, I think, the best way to have some help."

I want to end this episode by saying,
"I believe in YOU & YOU can do this."
Summits are by far one of the most powerful ways to quickly grow your list, launch your platform & make more money! (Even if you are just getting started).
Don’t get caught up in Analysis paralysis, because the world needs to hear your message & there are people who are waiting for you to help them.
So just get started. Imperfect action is always better than doing nothing!
Thank you and see you on the next episode!
