Hi, my name is Leesa Barnes. I’m President of the InternationalAssociation of Virtual Event Managers (IAVEM) and author of Multiple Streams of Virtual Event IncomeChoice Magazine, the magazine of professional coaching, called me “the go to person for virtual event know how.”

I’m passionate about connecting those who want to produce profitable virtual events with the people and tools that can help them do so.

Why You Should Trust Me With Your Virtual Event Journey

I hosted my first virtual event in 2001 while working as a software project manager for a global technology company. The small company I worked for was acquired by a larger company and practically overnight, I went from a team of 12 project managers to 200 worldwide.

I had to teach all these project managers how to do what I was doing so they could use our methodology to deploy the software in their local countries. And because there was a ban on inter-company travel, I had to find another way to train my colleagues. That’s when I used a webinar platform to teach my colleagues what to do.

No one was teaching anyone how to host virtual events back in 2001.

I had to learn everything on my own. Because of this innovation, I was recognized by the Director of my division with an award, appropriately called S.T.A.R.S. (for some, the name of the award will actually give away the name of the company).

When I was laid off in 2004, I started using virtual events to boost my visibility. I made alot of mistakes, however, by 2007, I finally understood how to host virtual events for profit. I now teach others how to double, triple, even quadruple their income and their list using my step-by-step methodology to produce profitable virtual events.
