Hey! I’m so excited to team up with you to pull off something that’s going to be absolutely incredible.
The Build A Thriving Nonprofit Summit is a 4-day event that will help nonprofits raise more money to increase their impact, engage their board to help fund their mission, and build community awareness to increase their donor base.
On this page, you’ll find all kinds of resources meant to make your life as a speaker as easy as possible and answer any questions you might have. If you run into a question I didn’t answer, email me at sabrina@supportingworldhope.com or ask over in the Facebook group.
As a speaker, you’ll also get free access to the VIP Backstage Pass!

How it’ll all work
How it’ll all work
Let’s do a quick rundown of how the whole thing will work.
The event will run from October 25 – 28, 2022. There will be live Zoom presentations each day from 10 am – 1:15 pm CST. Each speaker will be given 45 minutes for their presentation. These presentations will include 30 minutes of content (with up to a 1-2-minute pitch) and a live Q &A. As the host, I will moderate the chat and Q & A.
Along with the live presentations, there will be a Facebook group for attendees to hang out in and hold each other accountable.
Leading up to the summit, we’ll have two weeks of promotion. Below, you have been provided with email swipe copy, social media swipe copy, and social media graphics to make it all easy! I have even included a suggested posting/sending schedule for you to make promo easy to outsource to a VA.
If you are available to go live in the Facebook group for a bit prior to the summit to promote your session, take a few questions, connect with the attendees, and provide even more value email me at sabrina@supportingworldhope.com or let me know over in the Facebook group. (These Facebook lives will also be added to the VIP Backstage Pass.)
During the promotion phase, as the summit is running, and for a week after the summit is complete, we’ll also be promoting the VIP Backstage Pass. This includes lifetime access to presentations, House Party Friendraising Kit, Swag Bag with premium bonuses from our speakers, access to presenters to get your specific questions answered, and a live workshop with me after the summit. This will provide immense value to our attendees while making the work of promoting and creating a presentation worthwhile by allowing you to bring in affiliate commissions. Yay!
What I’ll need from you
So, this all sounds great, but what kind of work does it require of you? Let’s chat about it! My goal is to make this all as easy as humanly possible so we can all have a blast while providing great value and growing our businesses.
1. Presentation Slot Scheduled
I have assigned presentation dates & times. Click here to see the schedule. If you have an issue with the assigned time slot please advise me at sabrina@supportingworldhope.com or in the Facebook group.
Again, if you are available to go live in the Facebook group for a bit prior to the summit to promote your session, take a few questions, connect with the attendees, and provide even more value email me at sabrina@supportingworldhope.com or let me know over in the Facebook group. (These Facebook lives will also be added to the VIP Backstage Pass.)
2. Presentation
Next up is your presentation! The presentation will be live in Zoom and is meant to be more friendly and casual than perfect and structured. We want our attendees to learn something great while having fun in the process.
The Zoom Link is 956 453 3677 Code 3171. All events are in CST.
Please structure your content in a way that allows attendees to walk away feeling like they’ve really learned something, rather than a webinar format where they feel like they’re missing something that they need to buy from you asap.
With that being said, you have your choice of the following presentation formats:
- Slides
- No slides (just your gorgeous/handsome face)
- A mixture of the two
No matter what format you choose, you are free to use your presentation however you’d like in the future.
Your presentation should include great, actionable content. Here’s the suggested format:
- A quick introduction
- An overview of your topic
- Where people go wrong with your topic and tend to overcomplicate it
- Teaching section
- Specific action steps to give a transformation
- Up to a 2-minute pitch
- Include questions for attendees to answer in the chatbox throughout to boost engagement
If you’d like some feedback, on your presentations send it to sabrina@supportingworldhope by October 5, 2022.

3. VIP Backstage Pass Contribution
The VIP Backstage Pass will be a huge addition to the presentations we’re running. To make it even more valuable, I’ll ask each of you to provide one resource to add. This includes things like:
- eBooks
- Workbooks
- Courses (big or small)
- 1-month memberships
- Freebies
Note: I expect this to convert well so I do not recommend contributing any 1:1 offers.
It’s totally up to you to decide whether you’d like to create something new or provide something you already have.
Anyone who does contribute a premium resource (aka not something you’re giving away for free somewhere else) will get a 50% affiliate commission on sales, rather than 40%.
Information for these resources was due on September 15.
4. Promotion
The power of an online summit comes from a group of experts coming together for a single cause. The joint promotion that happens because of that is a huge benefit to everyone involved.
Because of that, everyone is encouraged to share on social media and to email their lists during the promotion period, starting on October 11.
You’ll want to share using your affiliate link (which you can set up here) so you can get in on the 40% commission that will come from any VIP Backstage Pass sales (50% if you’ve contributed a premium bonus).
You’ll find swipe copy and graphics in the Resource Vault below.
5. Live Participation
There will be live Zoom presentations each day from 10 am – 1:15 pm CST. Each speaker will be given 45 minutes for their presentation. These presentations will include 30 minutes of content (with up to a 1-2-minute pitch) and a live Q &A. As the host, I will moderate the chat and Q & A.
The Zoom Link is 956 453 3677 Code 3171. All events are in CST.
Along with the live presentations, there will be a Facebook group for attendees to hang out in and hold each other accountable.
Affiliate Details
While summits are great for overall visibility and making new connections, a little extra income never hurts either, right?
That’s exactly why I’ve set up an affiliate program for the Build A Thriving Nonprofit Summit where you’ll receive a commission from all sales from the traffic you refer to the event. Payouts will be made by November 11, 2022.
The commission structure is as follows:
- 40% for all speakers
- 50% for all speakers who include a premium bonus
The pricing structure will be:
- $14.80 for 15 minutes after initial registration
- $30.80 from October 10 – 24, 2022
- $38.80 from October 25, 2022
To make it as easy as possible for you to generate extra income, the Resource Vault includes things like email swipe copy, social media copy, and social share graphics. However, you’re more than welcome to write your own copy and even run your own Facebook ads.
Just remember to use your affiliate link, which you can create or look up here.
As with all affiliate promotions, be sure to disclose that you’re an affiliate when sharing with your audience.
Resource Vault
Now for those resources, I promised to make your life as easy as possible.
So you don’t have to dig through a folder, here are direct links:
- Branding information (in case you’d like to show off that you’ve been featured on your website)
- To-do list with due dates so you can keep track of everything nice and easily
