The Marketing with Meller

Small Business Marketing SUMMIT

Thursday, April 23, 2026

12 Experts. 4 Hours. One Powerful Roadmap for Your Business.

10:00 AM – 2:00 PM ET | Virtual Event

*Because when you pay, you pay attention.

This is for the "Doers."

You don’t need more theory. You need a plan.

Whether you’re a solopreneur, a consultant, or an established small business owner, the modern marketing landscape moves fast. The Small Business Marketing Summit is designed to cut through the noise. We’ve gathered 12 specialists from the Marketing with Meller community to give you high-impact, actionable "knowledge sprints" that you can implement the very next day.

✨ What makes us different?

We aren't here to sell you from the stage. We are here to teach. We’ve combined the speed of a "Live-A-Thon" with the intimacy of small-group breakout sessions to ensure you leave with a clear roadmap, not just a full notebook.

A Message from Brenda Meller

Expertise You Can Trust for the Time You Invest.

I’ve seen too many "free" summits that are nothing more than a series of high-pressure sales pitches. I wanted to create something better.

I created this Summit to be a place where small business owners get real, actionable advice without the noise. By charging $67, I’m able to ensure a virtual room of people ready to take action, while paying every one of our 12 speakers for their brilliance.

I’m here to ensure you walk away with the distilled marketing insights and high-impact strategies you need to grow your business with clarity and confidence in 2026.

A Different Kind of Virtual Event

Why is this event $67? Because I believe that when you pay, you pay attention. This ticket is a commitment to your own growth and a signal that you are ready to implement what you learn.

But there is a bigger reason: I am paying every one of our 12 speakers for their expertise.

In a world full of "free" webinars that are actually just 60-minute sales pitches, we are doing things differently. By paying our speakers, I am honoring their wisdom as fellow members of the Marketing with Meller community and ensuring that every session you attend is 100% focused on your education.

NO FLUFF. JUST PURE EXPERTISE.

Stop Guessing. Start Growing.

Marketing isn't a mystery; it’s a series of intentional steps. But as a small business owner, you don’t have time for fluff or "generic" advice. You need actionable strategies from people who are actually doing the work.

The Small Business Marketing Summit is a fast-paced, high-impact virtual experience designed to give you a year’s worth of marketing clarity in just four hours.
