We'll meet in Aurora, Colorado!
We've found the perfect spot to host the first live Crochet Business Summit...The Doubletree Hotel by Hilton Denver - Aurora.
Check out a sneak peek of the venue HERE.
Denver International Airport is the closest airport to the hotel and the hotel does have a free shuttle.
We absolutelty want you to be comfortable when attending our event.
We have taken a few steps to accommodate various needs such as dietary restrictions and ADA requirements.
If you need special accommodations, please let us know so we can do our best to provide you with an exceptional experience. Email [email protected] to share your needs.
Our final schedule is still in the works, but you can expect a Welcome Session on Wednesday, April 10 from 5:30 - 7:00pm and 2 FULL days April 11 + 12 from 8:30am - 5pm Mountain time.
There will be opportunities outside of those main event hours to connect and network.
On top of each day's speakers and sessions, expect various opportunities like parties, mixers, and meet-ups. We will send out a formal agenda to everyone that has bought an in-person ticket when it's available.
Short answer...no.
However, you can transfer your ticket to another person in the event that you are not able to attend. Please email [email protected] to process that transfer.
Note: At the time of registration, you will have the opportunity to buy ticket insurance through a third party. If you purchase this insurance, you will be able to get a refund on your ticket if your cancellation is due to a qualifying event. See registration page for full details.
Your registration is valid for one person per ticket.
If you have paid for a single-occupancy room, you are free to bring a guest to stay in your room with you. However, entrance to the conference and food will not be provided. The hotel does sell snacks and have an onsite restaurant and there are restaurants, corner stores, and light-rail transportation within walking distance of the hotel.
Yes! We want you to be as comfortable as possible when you walk into the event space...that includes connecting you with other attendees ahead of time.
As the event draws nearer, we will be setting up small group pods. These pods will have their own Facebook group in order to connect before the conference, and the group will meet together at various times during the conference to debrief and network.
Connection is one of the pillars of the summit. So, we have added breaks throughout the day and network/meet-and-greet times during lunch that will allow you to connect with each other, our sponsors, and vendors.
We also encourage attendees to set up their own meet-ups, dinner parties, and excursions (and let us know about them so we can let other know) in order to make the most of the time available.
We request that you not record sessions while you're at the summit. We want you to be fully present so are making recordings of all breakout sessions available to attendees.
You are allowed to record short, 30 to 60-second sound-bites to be shared on social media or for your own enjoyment.
Both things can be true!
Our main goal is for you to walk away from this event feeling ready to increase visibility, sales, profits, and freedom in your business.
If you resonate with a speaker on stage and want to work with them, we make it easy to connect both in-person and online.
Prior to the event, you will receive a list of speakers and vendors and what they offer so you can check them out and plan your in-person connections.
There will be opportunities available but no shady sales pressure or "buy now before you lose out" type vibes.
A continental breakfast, coffee, and lunch will be provided both Thursday and Friday.
The same will be provided for pre-summit mastermind experience ticket holders for Wednesday.
You will have the opportunity to share your food restrictions with us at the time of registration. If something comes up after you've registered, please contact [email protected] to share your concerns.
Oh, trust me, we've heard the chants and have received your emails and Pam is just as excited as you are to connect and commisserate.
We don't currently have plans to offer 1-on-1 coaching sessions with Pam during the event but she will be making an effort to connect with each of you during networking, lunch, and break times (if she isn't taking a break herself...those 2pm naps are already on the schedule).
The VIP Cocktail Party on Wednesday evening will be a great place to connect with Pam. You'll be able to attend if you have a pre-summit mastermind experience upgraded ticket.
There is a complimentary shuttle provided by the hotel to bring you back and forth from the airport. Keep in mind that you'll likely need to schedule extra time as there is just one shuttle for a large group of attendees.
Uber and Lyft are also available in the area for those who want a more predictable schedule.
There is no dress code. Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable but empowered, cozy but professional.
You'll be meeting speakers, sponsors, and vendors and you'll want to make a good impression - use your best judgement based on the impression you want to make.
As always, you're welcome to wear your handmade garments!
We're still solidfying the lineup of speakers and presenters but we'll announce them here and add them to the speaker's page as soon as contracts are signed.
Nope.
While Pam is the founder and CEO of our major sponsors, Crochetpreneur® and Crochet Professionals Network™, and is the host of the summit, her goal is to get you in front of the best coaches, thought leaders, and entrepreneurs in the online business and crochet spaces...even those that some might consider competitors.
The Crochet Business Summit embodies the maxim "community and collaboration over competition."
Pam will be hosting the pre-summit events and will be on stage once or twice but the rest of the summit will be filled with 10+ guest persenters, 2 keynote speakers, panel guests, and sponsor presentations.
We have both a one-time or two-payment option. If you select the two-payment option, you'll pay 50% at the time of registration and the other 50% of your registration fee will be automatically withdrawn on March 10th.
When using the payment plan option, you understand that the deposit is non-refundable and that the additional payment will be automatically withdrawn.

We know that it's very likely that you've never actually heard of the Crochet Business Summit before. If not, welcome! Let us tell you a little bit about the summit, why we do what we do, and how you'll benefit.
In it's fourth year, 2024 will be the first time we meet live and in-person for the Crochet Business Summit.
The event, itself, was designed to be a vehicle for online business experts to reach thousands of crochet business owners with educational, networking, and implementation opportunities that bring hope, inspiration, and tools for growth.
Since 2021, we have reached over 15,000 makers via our virtual events. In 2024, our session will take place face-to-face in order to provide an even more powerful experience and transformation for our attendees.
Each of our presenters and speakers have traveled the path from struggling start-up to thriving CEO. We've walked the walk and navigated the journey you are on now (in fact, we're still in it..learning and growing every day).
We've learned what works and what doesn't work.
We've cried alone on the bathroom floor and celebrated with thousands.
We've wondered where the next paycheck would come from and given to others value (both tangible and intangible) beyond our wildest dreams.
And we are grateful.
Our lives have been transformed.
And we want you to experience transformation, too.
So, we give back.
We are passionate about your success because we know what it has meant for our own lives, families, and communities.
Because, you deserve to and need to take a few days to focus on the future of your business in order to level-up to your next phase of success.
You'll embark on a transformative journey at the Increase Crochet Business Summit Live, the only event tailored for crochet entrepreneurs eager to amplify their business.
This summit is an incubator for growth, offering unparalleled networking, actionable strategies, and a community that understands your passion.
It's more than a conference; it's an experience designed to connect, inspire, and empower you to become the CEO of your dreams, ensuring you leave with the tools and confidence to elevate your crochet business to new heights of success and freedom.
Don't miss the chance to be part of this pivotal event in the world of professional crochet.
Our mission is to bring together crochet business owners, industry experts, and allied business by providing an in-person opportunity for learning on topics of interest to product sellers, designers, and bloggers while fostering connections, inspiring growth, and elevating the status of crochet as a profession in the fiber arts industry.
In simple terms, our goal is to help you make more money and live more free.
