Summit in a Box – Krista Miller

Summit in a Box – Krista Miller

 

Virtual Summits are now the most popular way to grow your online business. You can be in ministry and hold revivals online. I know. I did that when the COVID shutdowns first happened. Our ministry was one of the first in the nation to hold an online ministry summit after the shutdown.

We had 40 some pastors and ministers from around the nation come on the program over three days. We had over 700 visitors during the summit as we discussed the situation in light of Biblical prophecy and the need for repentance, etc.

But, I pieced that summit together using about four different platforms!  It took three of us to run it when we went live… plus the emails and promotions… It was a success… but it was the LAST ONE I did for over two years…

Then, a month or two ago, the Lord put on my heart it was time for another summit of pastors to discuss prophecy in light of current events – again!  I’m being honest, I was not thrilled He had put that in my heart and mind… amen!

But, a week or so after that day, I seen an email or something that caught my attention. It was from a wonderful young lady named Krista Miller and her business is called, “SUMMIT IN A BOX!”  

Folks, I’m telling you, this was an answer to my prayers. Amen!  I am so impressed by what I’ve learned so far… and we are now in the planning stages of holding our next online ministry summit… and I will be incorporating the summit concept into our podcast and marketing program as well.  That’s how simple of a process Krista has made this – even I am wanting to do more summits!  Amen!

Krista has this summit thing down to a fine art. She has helped so many people to run their summits, gain followers, make sales, etc. – I call her the “Summit Queen.” Amen!

If you are looking at a way to generate an increase in whatever it is you are doing, you need to grab a pen and paper and take notes today. I saw a Facebook post or something that caught my eye a month or so ago and Krista was sharing a little about her Faith – and I immediately told myself I was going to get her on this program to share all about her business and her non-profit with YOU. Amen!

Krista created her own summit system in 2017 while preparing for her first summit. She unexpectedly generated 4 times her normal monthly revenue from that one event!  Praise God! She tripled her email list and booked her services out six months in advance – all from that first event. Amen! She quickly became THE recognized industry expert in summits as a result. 

Krista Miller is here today to talk, not just about “Summit in a Box” but also some great work she is doing with a non-profit called, “CEO’s in the Word.” Praise God!

Help me welcome to the program, Krista Miller! Krista, it is a blessing to have you on the program with us today!

First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Krista Miller?”

When did you first start your online business and what were you doing?

How did you get introduced to online summits?

Do you remember your very first one?  What was that like for you?

What was the evolution of “Summit in a Box” from what you first tried to where you are today – being able to help so many people successfully run their online summits?

Running or putting on summit is one thing… but the success or failure of the summit really rests on the value being provided during the summit, correct?  Do you have any advice or guidance that you provide your clients in, not just using your system to hold the summits, but to guide them in making sure value is provided to the attendees?

You are also involved in starting a non-profit called, “CEO’s in the Word.”  Share with us the vision you have for this organization…

This will be held by business professionals for their clients?

I love the concept of the online Bible study groups.  So many people are just “too busy” in this day and time. So much so that church attendance is down, dramatically – especially after the pandemic. I know our online radio station grew by about 30% each year since the COVID fiasco. I just believe a lot of people are used to staying home now and get fed the Word online. So your online Bible studies will probably be a hit. Amen!

How far along are you in bring this to the point of launching it?

You are also a podcaster. Tell us about your podcast, “Summit Host Hangout Podcast…”

Krista, this has truly been interesting. If someone wants more information on “Summit in a Box” or would like to ask a question, etc. How can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.

Folks, holding a virtual summit is not for everyone. But if it is something the Lord has been stirring around in your heart, you are listening to this episode today for a reason! Amen!  

God preordained you would be hearing us right now. Amen!  

I want to encourage you to drop down into the show notes and check out Krista’s website, “Summitinabox.co” NOT dot com… (it's DOT CO).  Amen!  Just click the link down below to check out the great information on Krista’s website. It is really a great website.

And, as you have already heard, Pastor Bob is a client… amen!  I’ve using these products to grow our ministry brand this year… probably two or three summits – I know at least TWO are in the planning stages right now… and I’ll probably do a third in the fall.  So I know this program works. Amen!
