Who is Robbie Samuels? 🟧 I'm a multi-passionate entrepreneur. I geek out about community-building, relationship-building, thoughtfully designing space for a conversation, and anything about bringing people together to create connections. I believe quality engagement is about inclusion and belonging. Depending on what caught your eye about my work, you may be surprised to discover that I do more than you were initially interested in. What do I do? 🟧 As a business growth strategist, I coach entrepreneurial women in their 50s and beyond who are looking to grow their impact and income through new revenue streams by helping them grow their audience before they launch their product or service. 🟧 As a virtual event design consultant and executive Zoom producer, I help my clients reimagine their in-person events by utilizing all of the opportunities available through digital and analog tools. Rather than replicating the in-person event, we create a powerful virtual experience. 🟧 Before the pandemic, and again as in-person events return, I support organizations designing conferences that create opportunities for participant engagement so they can follow through on their networking intentions. I've been producing events in one form or another since I was in college in the 90s and providing business growth strategy advice for nearly as long. ⭐ I published two books that have collectively received over 400 Amazon reviews, ⭐ I was invited to do a TEDx on my signature networking technique, ⭐ I have hosted a podcast since 2016, ⭐ when the pandemic shuttered in-person events, I swiftly reinvented myself resulting in a successful multi-six-figure business, and ⭐ my clients include Feeding America, the California WIC Association, and other national and statewide mission-driven organizations. How can I help you? Here are some of the ways my clients describe me… ✅ business growth strategy coach ✅ virtual event design consultant & strategist ✅ executive Zoom producer ✅ professional speaker ✅ emcee (virtual and in-person) ✅ podcast host ✅ author ✅ virtual presentation skills trainer and I'm likely leaving something out… Read my back story at www.robbiesamuels.com/about Stay Connected LinkedIn Twitter Instagram Start hereOn the Schmooze podcast archive SIGN UP for my free monthly #NoMoreBadZoom Virtual Happy Hours – www.NoMoreBadZoom.com Affiliate Links: Disclosure of Material Connection: Some of the links above are “affiliate links”.
