VidSummit is NOT a place where influencers connect with their fans. Instead, VidSummit is where you become an industry insider. Without the fans at the event, influencers share the truth of what they do - the truth they would never share online. In other words, VidSummit is the only event where dozens of the top 1% of influencers show you how to get fans fast, build a brand and make millions from your content.
Who Is VidSummit For?
Video Creators & Influencers
Last year, we had a few of the top 5 YouTubers in the world (w/ 20 million+ subs) come to VidSummit. After sharing their strategies on stage, they would sit down and take notes furiously just like everyone else.

Why?

It’s because at VidSummit, you get the most cutting-edge strategies of not just one person, but from dozens. If you make content online, whether it’s on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook or anywhere else, this is an event you can’t afford to miss.

Marketers, Agencies or Team Members
Involved in the Content Creation Process

The truth is it’s hard to be a video content creator. First you’ve got to write the content. Then you’ve got to film. Then it often takes dozens of hours editing it, posting it and distributing it.

That’s why MOST content creators are dying to meet the right teams and team members to help them. They need your help as marketers, agencies and supporters (ie: channel managers, video editors, videographers, etc.) to help them reach their dreams.

If you want to work with influencers or you want to do more video projects in general, then come to this event. At VidSummit, you will have access to more video content creators and influencers than anywhere else. Guaranteed.

(Plus, you also get to learn about the latest in video marketing and where you’ll get more conversions and better results than anywhere else. It’s all the stuff you CAN’T learn at school, online or in any courses because these influencers don’t share them anywhere else.)

Brands and Business Owners
If you’re a brand or business owner, you’ve got to understand this. Video content creators are ALWAYS looking for the right brands to do deals with. Brand deals are often one of their main sources of income.

What this means for you is VidSummit is the perfect place for you to connect with content creators to do deals.

In most cases, you are ONE good partnership, joint-venture or collaboration away from setting a record year. I’ve seen it time and time again. With the right influencer working with you, your sales can grow by the millions within months - even if you’re just starting out. So...

How is VidSummit Different From Other
Marketing Events And/Or YouTube Events?

VidSummit is the only event where dozens of the top 1% of influencers show you how to get fans fast, build a brand and make millions from your content.

Unlike other video marketing and YouTube events, VidSummit is NOT a place where content creators connect with their fans. Instead, VidSummit is where content creators come together to help each other. Without the fans at the event, content creators can share the truth of what they do - the truth they would never share online.

Every speaker (58+ of them listed below) will be giving secrets that they’ve never shared before. At VidSummit, you get the step-by-step instructions on how to grow your YouTube Channel - in record time... How to turn subscribers into sales... And much, much more..

What’s more is you’re getting the latest of what’s working now. Not stuff from 3 or 5 years ago. You get to see what influencers are doing on YouTube, in their businesses and in video marketing now. The type of stuff you will never find online or in a course.
Plus, THIS IS A ZERO PITCH EVENT. OUR SPEAKERS ARE HERE TO TEACH AND TO SHARE, NOT SELL.

VidSummit is the video and YouTube industry’s highest level networking out there. You will meet dozens of people with millions upon millions of views every month. They are the ones making history as you’re reading this now - and most are just getting started. If you want to connect with high-level influencers, content-creators and other VIPs, this is where to be. There will be more deals being made during and after the event than you can imagine. You wouldn’t want to miss out! So...

Devin Stone, JD

Fighting Copyright Abuse on YouTube

Studios and labels have an army of lawyers who do nothing but scour YouTube for videos to demonetize. Worse, YouTube gives them tools to super-charge their search (tools individual creators couldn’t buy at any price). As a creator, it can seem like the deck is stacked against you – because it is. But that doesn’t mean you’re helpless. Far from it. Big corporations are actually terrified of creators exercising their rights. So let’s fight back. Learn about your rights under the Copyright Act. Get a taste for the tricks that an actual lawyer has used to beat every copyright claim, destroy DMCA takedowns, and get a personal apology from a major network.

Could it be that your channel just sucks? - How to objectively audit your YouTube channel

How do you know if your YouTube channel or channels are doing well? They may seem healthy from recent view counts but are they really reaching the heights they should be?

Using a real life case study, Tom will show you an OBJECTIVE framework that will let you see in black and white whether or not your channel is being run optimally and achieving its full potential, because when you are too close to your channel it's hard to judge it impartially and this can be fatal for a channel in the long-run.

Demystifying the "YouTube Algorithm": Don't Fear the Waves, Ride 'Em.

The "YouTube algorithm" can be a complex and mysterious partner to work with to grow your audience on the platform. Many people either hope an algo change doesn't adversely affect their channel or micromanage their strategies to death in search of every trick, tip, and hack in the book.

These days algorithm optimization across YouTube and other online video platforms is often something we focus far too much on. There are lots of voices out there who claim to have the "keys" to the algorithm, and there are plenty of algorithm myths.

In this session, we plan to help dispel some of those myths and help to identify which strategies to focus on and which tactics are truly critical in 2020 for creators, marketers, and publishers alike. BONUS - you'll learn about a new case on YouTube's Community Tab that illustrates just one great way to work with the YouTube algorithm, not for it.

Navigating Brand-Creator Partnerships

How do you create Spacestation Integrations, one of the top influencer marketing agencies on the planet? Navigating partnerships. It sounds obvious but the implementation requires a shift in thinking. Sean Holladay (AKA Holladay) has unlocked a powerful method to generating millions in brand-creator deals. A meaningful relationship with Hot Wheels turned Tanner Fox’s very real “Guaczilla” GTR into a Hot Wheels car sold in stores everywhere. Photographers are praising the impressive ND filter built by Polar Pro and Peter McKinnon. A family vlog turns into a sold out Staples Center event for the Ace Family. The common theme: unique and powerful partnerships…and Holladay.

Using Big Data to Conquer YouTube

There is no one-size-fits-all formula for YouTube success. What works for a construction vlog bears little resemblance to what works for a muscle car channel. You are unique.

Whether you’re a new creator, an established YouTuber, a marketer, an agency, or something in between, everyone will walk away with a clear roadmap on how to use BIG DATA to conquer YouTube. And a lucky few will walk away with prizes, too.

VidSummit is NOT a place where influencers connect with their fans. Instead, VidSummit is where you become an industry insider. Without the fans at the event, influencers share the truth of what they do - the truth they would never share online. In other words, VidSummit is the only event where dozens of the top 1% of influencers show you how to get fans fast, build a brand and make millions from your content.
Who Is VidSummit For?
Video Creators & Influencers
Last year, we had a few of the top 5 YouTubers in the world (w/ 20 million+ subs) come to VidSummit. After sharing their strategies on stage, they would sit down and take notes furiously just like everyone else.

Why?

It’s because at VidSummit, you get the most cutting-edge strategies of not just one person, but from dozens. If you make content online, whether it’s on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook or anywhere else, this is an event you can’t afford to miss.

The truth is it’s hard to be a video content creator. First you’ve got to write the content. Then you’ve got to film. Then it often takes dozens of hours editing it, posting it and distributing it.

That’s why MOST content creators are dying to meet the right teams and team members to help them. They need your help as marketers, agencies and supporters (ie: channel managers, video editors, videographers, etc.) to help them reach their dreams.

If you want to work with influencers or you want to do more video projects in general, then come to this event. At VidSummit, you will have access to more video content creators and influencers than anywhere else. Guaranteed.

(Plus, you also get to learn about the latest in video marketing and where you’ll get more conversions and better results than anywhere else. It’s all the stuff you CAN’T learn at school, online or in any courses because these influencers don’t share them anywhere else.)

Brands and Business Owners
If you’re a brand or business owner, you’ve got to understand this. Video content creators are ALWAYS looking for the right brands to do deals with. Brand deals are often one of their main sources of income.

What this means for you is VidSummit is the perfect place for you to connect with content creators to do deals.

In most cases, you are ONE good partnership, joint-venture or collaboration away from setting a record year. I’ve seen it time and time again. With the right influencer working with you, your sales can grow by the millions within months - even if you’re just starting out. So...

How is VidSummit Different From Other
Marketing Events And/Or YouTube Events?

VidSummit is the only event where dozens of the top 1% of influencers show you how to get fans fast, build a brand and make millions from your content.

Unlike other video marketing and YouTube events, VidSummit is NOT a place where content creators connect with their fans. Instead, VidSummit is where content creators come together to help each other. Without the fans at the event, content creators can share the truth of what they do - the truth they would never share online.

Every speaker (58+ of them listed below) will be giving secrets that they’ve never shared before. At VidSummit, you get the step-by-step instructions on how to grow your YouTube Channel - in record time... How to turn subscribers into sales... And much, much more..

What’s more is you’re getting the latest of what’s working now. Not stuff from 3 or 5 years ago. You get to see what influencers are doing on YouTube, in their businesses and in video marketing now. The type of stuff you will never find online or in a course.
Plus, THIS IS A ZERO PITCH EVENT. OUR SPEAKERS ARE HERE TO TEACH AND TO SHARE, NOT SELL.

VidSummit is the video and YouTube industry’s highest level networking out there. You will meet dozens of people with millions upon millions of views every month. They are the ones making history as you’re reading this now - and most are just getting started. If you want to connect with high-level influencers, content-creators and other VIPs, this is where to be. There will be more deals being made during and after the event than you can imagine. You wouldn’t want to miss out! So...

Devin Stone, JD

Fighting Copyright Abuse on YouTube

Studios and labels have an army of lawyers who do nothing but scour YouTube for videos to demonetize. Worse, YouTube gives them tools to super-charge their search (tools individual creators couldn’t buy at any price). As a creator, it can seem like the deck is stacked against you – because it is. But that doesn’t mean you’re helpless. Far from it. Big corporations are actually terrified of creators exercising their rights. So let’s fight back. Learn about your rights under the Copyright Act. Get a taste for the tricks that an actual lawyer has used to beat every copyright claim, destroy DMCA takedowns, and get a personal apology from a major network.

The "YouTube algorithm" can be a complex and mysterious partner to work with to grow your audience on the platform. Many people either hope an algo change doesn't adversely affect their channel or micromanage their strategies to death in search of every trick, tip, and hack in the book.

These days algorithm optimization across YouTube and other online video platforms is often something we focus far too much on. There are lots of voices out there who claim to have the "keys" to the algorithm, and there are plenty of algorithm myths.

In this session, we plan to help dispel some of those myths and help to identify which strategies to focus on and which tactics are truly critical in 2020 for creators, marketers, and publishers alike. BONUS - you'll learn about a new case on YouTube's Community Tab that illustrates just one great way to work with the YouTube algorithm, not for it.

Navigating Brand-Creator Partnerships

How do you create Spacestation Integrations, one of the top influencer marketing agencies on the planet? Navigating partnerships. It sounds obvious but the implementation requires a shift in thinking. Sean Holladay (AKA Holladay) has unlocked a powerful method to generating millions in brand-creator deals. A meaningful relationship with Hot Wheels turned Tanner Fox’s very real “Guaczilla” GTR into a Hot Wheels car sold in stores everywhere. Photographers are praising the impressive ND filter built by Polar Pro and Peter McKinnon. A family vlog turns into a sold out Staples Center event for the Ace Family. The common theme: unique and powerful partnerships…and Holladay.

BRAND AND CREATOR PARTNERING TO ENGAGE FANS AND BUILD LEGACY

In 1968 Hot Wheels revolutionized play with the first toy cars that not only looked great but also performed better than anything else out in the market. 50 years and many generations later, the brand is bigger than ever. With continuously changing trends and consumer behaviors, and a fast evolving media environment, it’s more challenging than ever for a heritage brand to remain relevant and top of mind. Tanner Fox, beyond his +9MM subscribers, is one of the most influential creators on YouTube. His ability to engage authentically with his fans - who have seen him grow from the skate part to become a reference in the YouTube world - is hard to match. Over the course of 3 years Hot Wheels and Tanner have created one of the most unique partnerships in social media. A single-minded focus on building legacy, projects that simply wouldn’t exist without both brands collaborating, has fueled the success of both brands engaging and delighting fans around the world.
