More Killer Tribes Notes

…More bits of wisdom discovered in Saturday’s Killer Tribes conference!  Don’t miss Volume 1, containing The Big Idea and visual presentation notes from Alli Worthington, Daddy-O, Sarah Mae, Mark Hughes, Derek Webb, Bryan Allain, Jon Acuff, and Jeff Goins!  Or download a PDF of the full set of notes here.

***We will return to our regularly scheduled random river of thoughts later this week…but again today, I want to share a new experiment in visual note-taking.  I saw a lot of great visual notes from the SXSW conference last month, and thought I’d try my hand at it, even though I suck at drawing.  So I have “drawn” a few of the key points from my notes from several of the sessions.  Let me know what you think!***

And as noted last week, I can’t forget Tripp Crosby and Tyler Stanton…but I also am following Jeff Goins’ advice and not biting off TOO much more than I can chew – my drawings can not do their hilarity justice.  So check out some videos of them instead.

  1. I absolutely love these notes! Thanks for sharing. What a great way for those of us who weren’t there to get the major points quickly. Great job!

    1. Christine

      Thanks, Tammy! I still wish everyone had been able to come, but if I can provide a “next best thing” I’m thrilled to be able to help!

  2. These are so good– thank you! I can’t wait to share the notes from my session with my friends who couldn’t make it, and I love seeing what I missed while I was busy talking!

      Tamara, every time I looked at Jessica’s notes from your session, I kicked myself for not having clones. So wish I had been there!

      1. I agree! The only “flaw” with the conference was the breakout sessions in that we ALL wanted to be at all four sessions at once! Thanks to Christine and Jessica, it’s as close to being there as possible!

        We WERE in the next room, so we were “sort of” there, right? :^}

        1. Christine

          That just makes us want to go to next year’s conference all the more, right??

        2. I’ve heard that a lot! @BryanAllain did a great job of putting it all together, and I think this is the one area he could tweak to make it even better next year.

          1. Yes. And I think the solution to that is that KTC13 should be a two-day event!

  3. WOW! These are awesome.

      Stephen, like I said to Tamara…I SO wish I could have attended your session too! Jared’s notes captured the essence, but it sounds like you were talking right to me!

  4. Mark

    Time to vote on our favorite “note graphic”. I like the magnifying glass! “Networking” is a close second.

    1. Christine

      I can’t pick a favorite! They were all SO fun to draw.

  5. Thank you so much for taking the time to making such amazing notes, and for sharing them here!

    I had such a wonderful time at Killer Tribes. All of the presentations and attendees I spoke with were so inspiring.

    I hope Bryan does this again next year! Let’s be sure he does. 😉

    Take care and keep in touch.
