✅ The Event Question

Rick from the MPI Mexico Chapter asks: "What is the biggest mistake people make when trying to increase registration in the final two weeks before an event?"

📌 What You’ll Learn

1. Stop "going macro": Avoid the temptation to invite everyone in your database just to fill seats in the final weeks.
2. Target the locals: Focus your marketing on prospects and customers in the venue city.
3. Partner with sales: Identify top accounts and opportunities within a 100-mile radius of the event to drive relevant attendance.
4. Retarget registrants: Don't assume registration equals attendance. Market to your existing registrants to ensure they attend.

🎭 The Ridiculous Question

"Would you rather never watch TV ever again or never listen to music again?"

Ghazwan chooses to keep the TV. He admits that binge-watching shows on weekends is his primary escape and way to recharge.
