Hey hey! I’m so excited to team up with you to pull off something that’s going to be absolutely incredible.
The SELL DIGITAL CRAFTS SUMMIT is a 3-day event that will help busy crafters design and sell digital products..
On this page, you’ll find all kinds of resources meant to make your life as a speaker as easy as possible and answer any questions you might have. If you run into a question I didn’t answer, email me at [email protected] or ask over in the Facebook group
As a speaker, you’ll also get free access to the ALL-ACCESS PASS!
Let’s do a quick rundown of how this event will work.
The summit will run from APRIL 3-5 (CST). Presentations will include 15-20 MINUTES minutes of content (with up to a 2-minute freebie pitch) and a live chat.
While the presentations themselves are pre-recorded, all speakers are asked to attend their presentation time live to interact with attendees in the Summit Facebook Group.. There is no video component, so attendance in pjs is recommended.
Along with the live presentations, there will be a Facebook group for attendees to hang out in, hold each other accountable, and ask questions. If attendees have good questions while your presentation is going on, you’ll be able to go live in the Facebook group for a bit of an encore to answer those questions, connect with the attendees, and provide even more value.
The additional Facebook live is not required.
Leading up to the summit, we’ll have two weeks of promotion. You’ll be provided with email swipe copy, social media swipe copy, and social media graphics to make it all easy! I’ll even have a suggested posting/sending schedule for you to make promo easy to outsource to a VA.
During the promotion phase, as the summit is running, and for a week after the summit is complete, we’ll also be promoting the ALL-ACCESS PASS. This includes an all-access pass for the replays, and juicy bonuses contributed by speakers. This will provide immense value to our attendees, while making the work of promoting and creating a presentation worthwhile by allowing you to bring in affiliate commissions. Yay!

So this all sounds great, but what kind of work does it require of you? Let’s chat about it! My goal is to make this all as easy as humanly possible so we can all have a blast while providing great value and growing our businesses.
The first thing I’ll need is some very basic information from you so I can finish up our registration page and Speakers page.
Once you give me the thumbs up that you’re in, I’ll send you a link where you can upload all this information easily.
Your presentation slot will be assigned by me based on the categories of presentations.
While your presentation will be pre-recorded, you’ll still be required to be in the chat on the day of your presentation in the Facebook group to answer questions and connect with attendees.
Next up is your presentation! This is a 15-20 minute pre-recorded presentation that is meant to be more friendly and casual than perfect and structured. We want our attendees to learn something great, while having fun in the process.
Please structure your content in a way that allows attendees to walk away feeling like they’ve really learned something, rather than a webinar format where they feel like they’re missing something that they need to buy from you asap.
With that being said, you have your choice of the following presentation formats:
Slides
No slides (just your gorgeous/handsome face)
A mixture of the two
Interview-style
No matter what format you choose, you are free to use your presentation however you’d like in the future.
Your presentation should include great, actionable content. Here’s the suggested format:
A quick introduction
An overview of your topic
Where people go wrong with your topic and tend to overcomplicate it
Teaching section
Specific action steps (with the goal of simplifying their existing process)
Up to a 3-minute freebie pitch
Include questions for attendees to answer in the chat box throughout to boost engagement
Presentations are due by MARCH 1ST 2023.
The ALL-ACCESS PASS will be a huge addition to the presentations we’re running. To make it even more valuable and to give you an additional way to collect attendee email addresses, I’ll ask each of you to provide one resource to add. This includes things like:
Templates
Workbooks
Courses (big or small)
1-month memberships
eBooks
Note: I expect this to convert well so I do not recommend contributing any 1:1 offers.
It’s totally up to you to decide whether you’d like to create something new or provide something you already have. While this isn’t required, it’s highly encouraged that you participate.
Anyone who does contribute a premium resource (aka not something you’re giving away for free somewhere else) will get a 50% affiliate commission on sales, rather than 40%. It’s also an opportunity to collect hundreds of extra email addresses as attendees claim your offer.
Information for these resources is due on March 10, 2023. You’ll receive a questionnaire to fill out closer to that time to make passing the information to me nice and simple.
The power of an online summit comes from a group of experts coming together for a single cause. The joint promotion that happens because of that is a huge benefit to everyone involved.
Because of that, everyone is encouraged to share on social media and to email their lists during the promotion period, starting on March 20, 2023.
You’ll want to share using your affiliate link (which you can set up here) so you can get in on the 40% commission that will come from any ALL-ACCESS PASS sales (50% if you’ve contributed a premium bonus).
You’ll find swipe copy and graphics in the Resource Vault below.
And last comes participation during the week of the event. Since we’ll already have done the work of creating the presentations and extra resources, we’ll be able to sit back and relax for the most part!
All I ask is that you participate in the chat during your presentation slot and interact in the Facebook group throughout the week to help attendees stay excited and engaged.
While you are not required to attend the events of other speakers, it’s highly encouraged! We’ll be able to get some great discussions going about the topics being presented.

While summits are great for overall visibility and making new connections, a little extra income never hurts either, right?
That’s exactly why I’ve set up an affiliate program for the ALL-ACCESS PASS where you’ll receive a commission from all sales from traffic you refer to the event. Payouts will be made by APRIL 30.
The commission structure is as follows:
40% for all speakers
50% for all speakers who include a premium bonus IN All-Access Pass
The pricing structure will be:
$47 for 15 minutes after initial registration
$67 until APRIL 2ND
$97 from APRIL 3RD-9TH
To make it as easy as possible for you to generate extra income, the Resource Vault includes things like email swipe copy, social media copy, and social share graphics. However, you’re more than welcome to write your own copy and even run your own Facebook ads.
Just remember to use your affiliate link, which you can create or look up here.
As with all affiliate promotions, be sure to disclose that you’re an affiliate when sharing with your audience.
