Next Level or Bust (Bring an Extra Suitcase)

Send us a text

In this episode of The Riley Black Project, we kick off our four-part series spotlighting this year's must-attend laser and maker events—starting with the fan-favorite: Next Level Laser Conference! 🛠️✨

Crystal and John are joined by Mark of Big Blue Laser Designs and MJ of Casa De Huevos lol (yes, she’s really starting a farm!) to chat about the conference that feels more like a family reunion than a business event. From networking and vendor rooms to bathroom-break interruptions and laser husbands uniting, we cover it all.

We dive into:

• What makes Next Level so special
• The real ROI of in-person events
• Planning chaos, time zone fails, and frazzled speakers
• How vendors accidentally start acrylic addiction
• Why you should bring your reluctant spouse (and an empty suitcase)
• Crystal’s guilt-based Patreon perks 😅

Plus: Mark’s podcast dreams and John’s latest client curveball 🎬

If you’ve ever wondered if attending a laser conference is worth it, this episode is your sign to get that ticket.
