INSPIRE SUMMIT
You are a content creator.
Whether author, speaker, blogger, podcaster, vlogger, designer, teacher, marketer, coach... chances are if you do one of these things, you do several all at once. Because that’s who you are—a contentpreneur.
Your work is both a ministry and a career, a vocational calling from God to weave words and pictures and websites and conversations that bring hope to a hurting world. Your work makes a difference.
But wow, it’s hard some days, right?
I mean, all-the-things. Social media, podcast networks, Amazon rankings, subscriber lists… so much to learn and do and grow. In a sea of online voices, how will yours stand out?
How will you find time, energy, and wisdom to get better at your craft and crack the e-commerce code so you can reach big goals, touch more lives, make more sales, cover increasing costs, and bless your family with a return from this work you’re so passionate about?
It’s simple, really.
We learn from the people who are a step ahead of us.
The folks who’ve been there, done that, worked inside the Christian content industry for years, weathered the changes and are now forecasting the trends. These are the people who know what it takes to be successful.
So... how do you access them?
Attend a fancy conference far from home where a handful of experts show up to teach and rub shoulders. Worth it? Totally. Expensive and inconvenient? For sure. You’ll have to miss your daughter’s volleyball game and fork over some serious cash for a hotel room plus flight... and parking... and snacks....
Enroll in an online course or mastermind with a big-name influencer who knows her stuff. This, too, is totally worth it… if you pick the right program. How do you know who’s the right coach for you and your goals? Will he or she speak your Jesus language? When it comes to growing your reach and income, you’d better make sure you’re discerning the wisdom from the worldly. (Uh, there’s a LOT of worldly out there.)
Or… you can pop in your earbuds and tune in to some of the best teaching, encouragement, and insight from a hand-picked collection of top experts in the Christian content industry—all while you’re folding laundry or driving to pick up the kids from school. No need to travel or invest hundreds of dollars. Heck, you can even listen in for FREE!
The Inspire Summit is a unique opportunity to hear trusted best practices and advice, straight from the hearts and minds of today’s foremost Christian content insiders. And it’s all available on YOUR time schedule, via your favorite computer or mobile device… audio only! So you don’t even have to make time to sit and watch a video. Just live your life and listen in at your convenience. How easy is that??

>>> When you register, you'll get a login to the summit, which will be hosted via our website, TheInspiredBusiness.co. You can access the sessions from your computer or through the Kajabi mobile app. (Kajabi is the platform we use for all our web pages and programs.) The app is available for free through the Apple App Store and Google Play.

>>> Get ready for some amazing free goodies! In addition to sage advice and solid teaching, each of our experts will share generous free resources to help you grow in your professional and personal pursuits. We encourage you to visit each expert's summit page to discover how they can help guide and support you with their gifts (literal and spiritual). All of these resources are included in the Free Ticket!
Speaking of tickets...
There are two options for registration: Free Ticket or Premium Pass. Yes, you can attend this summit totally for FREE! However, we encourage you to take advantage of our Premium Pass, which includes everything the free ticket has to offer PLUS these super-value-added benefits:
Bonus 1: One Full Year of Access

No need to rush. This stuff is just too good.
Bonus 2: Sales Funnel Bootcamp
The newest mini-course from The Inspired Business!
