Some of y'all are procrastinators, you know that? And I don't mean that as a negative.

Register for Scaling Up for free at the 11th hour... I won't judge you. Anyway! Saying a lot time, talent, and effort is required to plan and execute a memorable, super successful virtual event is like saying you need to have at least some serviceable hammering skills — or least knowledge of what a hammer is — in order to build a house.  So, trust me when I say Stephanie, Kristen, and Connor are absolute virtual event all-stars. (If you don't believe me, check out the FREE IMPACT+ archive of all the Digital Sales & Marketing Day and Virtual Selling Summit session recordings. Yes, really, it's free.)  With that in mind, and in honor of it being the more chaotic virtual event equivalent of Christmas Eve, I asked them to tell me in GIF FORM ONLY how they're feeling as we get ready to kick-off Scaling Up...  I agree. Like the calm before the storm, Connor. It's suspiciously quiet. 👀 If Stephanie is stoked, we all should be ecstatic. It's gonna be a good day! If The Dude is feeling optimistic, so am I. He's very calming in that way. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to change into my finest virtual event athleisurewear outfit before the clock strikes 12.
