THE LIONS DEN!
Don't leave early and miss the most popular part of the Whizard Summit, the Lion's Den!
We put each company that volunteers in the Lion's Den. Our panel of experts puts you through a “no hold barred” review of your current sales and marketing.
We’ll share what you are doing right as well as the opportunities you are missing. We have even redesigned websites for companies while they are in the Lion's Den.
Bring Your Toughest Challenges and Questions to the Summit
We'll provide solutions to your company's biggest hurdles.
You’ll also learn a lot from the other attendees who face the same challenges as you.
