The live marketplace for entrepreneurs and leaders
Your next competitive advantage may be something, or someone, you don’t know exists yet.
The Billion Dollar Impact Party is a fast-moving, curated marketplace for entrepreneurs and leaders who want to grow their business, expand their relationships, discover what’s next, and make a difference.
We’ve curated one room where you can discover people, ideas, products, services, tools, experiences and opportunities you aren’t likely to find in the usual places, while giving back at the same time.
Think of it as the best part of a trade show, accelerated into two hours, with impact built in.
And when business gets done, a portion of every purchase supports It’s All About the Kids®.
You don’t have to choose between growing your business and doing good.
You can do both.
Next party
This is the Billion Dollar Impact Marketplace
And some of it isn’t something you buy at all. Sometimes the most valuable thing in the room is someone saying, “you two need to know each other.”
It spans every department, which is why it’s you in the room and not a delegate. Marketing, AI, culture, coaching, which cause your company rallies around: only the person running it sits above all of it.
And when business gets done, a portion of every purchase creates impact for a meaningful cause.
Business grows. Relationships grow. Impact grows.
"Ignite leadership at every level of your organization."
Not just the top. Every level.
The best opportunities often come through people
Meet one another. Learn from one another. Open doors for one another. Everyone in this room brings their own experience, relationships, ideas and opportunities.

Where business meets impact
This party isn’t only about discovering what’s possible for your business. It’s about helping create what’s possible for someone else.
A San Diego foundation that has spent twenty-two years helping local families with children find food, help and hope.
Their FOOD HELP NOW SD campaign is a free countywide directory that connects those families with emergency food, CalFresh help, nutrition education and the local resources that turn a hard month into something steadier.
It runs on local businesses, schools and community groups pulling in the same direction, which makes it a fitting beneficiary for a room built around business and impact.
A portion of every purchase goes to the outreach that gets the directory into the hands of the families who need it, at community events and through service projects with local students. In their words: food today, stability tomorrow.
What FOOD HELP NOW SD covers
And on October 21, a portion of every purchase supports It’s All About the Kids.
Raised since October 2025 through two-hour virtual parties like this one. That's what happens when this room gets going.
Real wins from past Parties
Real people who raised a paddle at a past Billion Dollar Impact Party, and what that single yes turned into.
Avery's story
"Everything leads into each other."
Lyn Bloom's story
"Money can't buy this, but the room made it possible."
A keynote, bought in the room
"Because the ideal buyer was in that room."
Kristin Gutierrez's story
"All from simply raising her paddle and saying yes."
Straight from the room
Buyers from past Billion Dollar Impact Parties, in their own words.
“If you see it and it’s right for you, buy it. Just buy it, because you’re not going to see it again.”
Kim Sorrelle CEO, Love Is
“I never would have done any of that without getting that first offer, and I never would have heard about that offer outside the auction.”
Avery Crumrine Co-founder, Billion Dollar Impact Marketplace
“I’m actually going to be totally decreasing my costs by bringing this in.”
Jocelyn King On a tool she bought that replaced ones she was already paying for
“We were able to deliver beautiful blankets to all the moms and all their children there. It filled my heart and brought me to tears.”
Scott Thornton President, Temecula Winnelson
Grow your business. Open new doors. Help open doors for someone else.
You don’t have to know exactly what you’re looking for before you walk in.
That’s the point.
You can’t leverage what you can’t see.
Unite millions of people and communities around shared goals to create a billion dollars of impact.
That’s Billion Dollar Impact.
Reserve your seat
I want you to come see what’s in the room. You may find something for your business, your team, your clients or your impact, including something you didn’t even know to look for.
Come meet some great people, see what’s possible, and have some fun doing it.
Stacey LaurenBefore you go
No. Think curated marketplace, not sales webinar. You’ll have opportunities to network, meet amazing people, discover new ideas and offers, and hear about an incredible cause. The offers move fast, so if you see something you want, buy it. If not, keep exploring. Come for the possibilities. Stay for the people and the impact.
Not at all. It’s free to attend, and plenty of people come for the room itself. If nothing is right for you this time, you’ve still spent two hours with other entrepreneurs, leaders and world-class experts.
We run it live on Spltyr. Set up your profile and add your card before the day, so when something you want drops you can say yes in seconds instead of wrestling with checkout while the room moves on.
No. Everything is sold live, in the room. That is the whole design: the experts show up, the offers drop, and you are there to catch them.
No. It happens once, and the buying only happens live, so if you cannot be there on the day you will miss what drops.
Yes. Tell us how many seats when you register, and once you are in you will get a personal invite link to send anyone else who belongs in the room.
A portion of the proceeds goes straight to It’s All About the Kids, a San Diego foundation whose FOOD HELP NOW SD campaign connects local families with children to emergency food, CalFresh help, nutrition education and trusted community resources.
