Motorcycle Industry Council

I spoke at the Motorcycle Industry Council’s 2017 annual meeting this November in Carson, California (near Los Angeles). Read my review here.

The MIC wanted me to “shake up” the audience.

I talked about Museum Hack and our experience attracting new visitors and customers to cultural organizations. I also spoke about the disruptive and innovative marketing techniques we use to bring in new audiences.

Historic Charleston Foundation

Me on stage at the Charleston Museum this February.

I spoke at the Charleston Museum on February 27th about my TEDx talk, Museum Hack, gave a Q&A, and some free hi-fives. I made two short videos about my weekend in Charleston, you can watch them both here.

AAM in St Louis

I gave a keynote speech and presentation for the Art Museum Marketing Association (AMMA) meeting the day before AAM started.

AMMA asked me to make an hour-long presentation to their senior members before AAM. I spoke with my colleague Ethan Angelica about Museum Hack, how we got started, and the impact we’re making. We also shared some of our special social media strategies.

QCFF-iD conference

Me speaking at QCFF-iD about Storytelling and Museum Hack methods.

I was a guest speaker at QCFF-iD in Quebec City from Sept 20th to 21st. It was one of my most recent speaking engagements. It was a great group but somewhat difficult as I was the only English speaker. You can see my full write-up on this blog post, including my favorite museums there.

SumoCon 2017

I spoke at SumoCon 2017 in Austin, Texas in the beginning of October. I really loved meeting fellow entrepreneurs at SumoCon, speaking about Museum Hack and meeting a sumo wrestling champion. Check out my notes and SumoCon review here.
