Side Hustle Summit Replays: What Existed, And What Is Left

The summit's five live sessions ran September 6–13, 2026 (Sept 6, 7, 8, 9 and 13), each at 1 PM Eastern. Every session got a replay inside the promised 24 hours, emailed to registered attendees. The organisers never published a public archive, and none has appeared since the event ended. Registration closed on September 6, so there is no way in now. What this page keeps is the record of what was in those replays.

Status: no public replay exists

Checked September 14, 2026. Every session got a replay inside 24 hours, by email, to registered attendees only. The organisers never stated a replay lifespan and never published an archive. The official event page now returns a 404 reading "This event is over," and no replay page, encore or public waitlist has been published. Anyone who did not register before September 6 has no route to the recordings.

The replay pattern in this event format

Across Brunson's launch events, replay handling is consistent, because replay scarcity is part of the format's design. It keeps live attendance, and live pitch exposure, high:

The 2026 summit broke from the pattern in one way: replays within 24 hours went to everyone, and there was no paid ticket tier, so attendance was free with no upsell to attend. It held to the pattern in the way that matters. No public archive appeared, during the event or after it. For what each aired session contained, see our Summit review.

How attendees actually watched it

  1. The replay windows. Each session's replay went up inside 24 hours and attendees watched it the same day. Free, and with only five sessions (Sept 6–9 and 13) it was a lighter week than past events.
  2. Written summaries. We watched every session we could and emailed structured notes the next morning to everyone who registered through this site: what was taught, the frameworks, the homework. Never a recording, but it kept people in the thread. The record is on the bonus page.

Replay tracker

What follows is our own record of the replays we watched during the live week. We published notes on sessions 1, 2 and 3. Sessions 4 (September 9, Russell Brunson on scale) and 5 (the September 13 finale) aired and we did not write them up, so nothing below covers them. The full episode lineup is on the dates & schedule page.

Session 3. Monday, September 8: “Distribute & Deliver”

The replay landed on time, inside the promised 24 hours, and ran 82 minutes against the advertised hour. Iman Gadzhi presented solo. The after-hours block was cut from the replay again, so Myron Golden, Russell Brunson and two guest speakers introduced as Roman and David are not in the recording. If you only watch replays, you are consistently missing about a third of each night.

Session 3 covered steps two and three of the four-step framework the summit calls 3D+S: distribute and deliver. Session 2 covered develop. Session 5, the September 13 finale, was billed as scale.

What was actually taught

The distribution method is creator partnerships. You do not build an audience. You find someone who already has one, build a digital product tailored to them, and split the revenue. Gadzhi called these audiences “untapped digital gold mines” and spent the first 25 minutes on the analogy before showing anything.

The targeting rule was specific, and it is the one genuinely useful takeaway you can act on without buying anything: partner with micro creators between 10,000 and 100,000 followers, found via Instagram Explore by searching an industry plus a content keyword (his example was “parenting tips”), filtering for posts doing 50,000 to 200,000 views.

The follower band the whole method rests on. The business email in the bio is the tell he tells you to look for.

The supporting claim: more than 41 million Instagram accounts sit in that 10K–100K band and fewer than 1% of them sell a product. He also cited a Linktree creator survey finding that 46% of full-time creators earn under $1,000 a year, rising to 68% among part-timers. We have not independently verified either figure against the original Linktree report.

The screen-share, click by click

Two pre-recorded walkthroughs were played rather than performed live. The first showed a feature inside Synthesise AI that was not mentioned on day 2, a “build for someone else” mode. You paste a creator's Instagram handle or YouTube link and it reads their back catalogue.

Step one of the hidden mode. We blurred the example creator's handle; it was left visible in the broadcast.

It then returns ranked product concepts, each scored, with the niche, the specific knowledge required and the problem solved broken out. The recommended option in the demo scored 8.9.

Four scored concepts from one Instagram handle. The scoring dimensions are pain, worsening, purchasing power and speed.

You then pick a format. Three were unlocked in the demo (coaching offer, pre-recorded product, ebook) with three more (digital asset, lead magnet, presentation) greyed out behind “create a product to unlock”. Gadzhi steered hard toward the ebook, on speed-to-money grounds.

Worth noticing: half the formats are locked until you have shipped something.

The tool then wrote an outline, a transformation map, chapters, the manuscript and the cover branding, and produced a downloadable PDF.

The finished artefact. Ten sections and a cover, from one Instagram handle.

The second walkthrough covered delivery. Synthesise generates the store page copy, you set a price, and publish pushes it to Whop. Gadzhi priced the demo product at $150 and repeatedly framed $150 to $300 as the range to aim for.

The handoff to Whop. Gadzhi disclosed on day 1 that he is a Whop co-owner, which is why the whole stack routes through it.

The offer changed on day 3

This is the part that matters if you are comparing prices. The headline number did not move. It is still $1,995 one-time, or from $166 a month financed. But two bonuses were added that were not in the day 2 offer, and the stated stack value was rebuilt around them.

The day 3 stack. “Ask Iman” carries a Live Only flag, which is the scarcity mechanic for the night.

The two new items were ListKit, an automated cold-outreach tool he said normally costs $597 a month on the annual plan, and Ask Iman AI, a chatbot trained on his own material, quoted at $1,495 a year and available only to people who bought during the live stream. Both are now moot: enrolment closed at midnight Eastern on September 14, 2026. A third component, the Handpicked 100, a pre-vetted creator list loaded into your account, he declined to price, calling it priceless.

He also clarified a day 2 point that had confused people: the $250,000 of AI credits he said he pre-paid is not a per-user allowance. He described it as funding unlimited usage, with no per-product cost to members.

The reveal. Anchored at $19,458, walked down through $8,659, landed at $1,995. Same price as day 2.

Anyone who bought on day 2 gets the new bonuses retroactively, which he stated explicitly. The full arithmetic and what expires is on our Monetise pricing page.

Numbers used to sell it

Monetise Mania, the 90-day earnings competition, was cited at $8.9 million tracked in round one, $15,064,202 in round two (the figure on the trophy backdrop) and roughly $31 million in round three. These are gross earnings across all participants, not profit, not per person, and not a success rate. No denominator was given for how many people earned nothing. The student cases named were Zada, James, Gail, Bianca, Ramsey and Michelle. We have not verified any of them.

Our read

The creator-partnership model is real and the micro-creator targeting rule is sound. What session 3 does not address is the other side of the trade. Nothing was said about what a creator's audience thinks of an AI-generated ebook sold in that creator's voice, about refund rates on those products, or about the fact that the recommended $150 price sits well above what most impulse digital products clear. Treat the earnings figures as gross and unaudited until someone publishes a denominator.

FAQ

Will there be Side Hustle Summit replays?
There were, for registered attendees. Every session got a replay inside 24 hours, emailed out. The organisers never stated a lifespan and never published a public archive, and none exists now the event has ended.
Where do I watch the replays?
Emailed links from the organizers, to registered attendees only. There was never a public archive. Any site offering a Side Hustle Summit "replay" now is either expired or fake; see our impersonator checklist.
What if I can't make any session live?
That decision is closed. Registration shut on September 6 and the event ended September 13, so neither the replays nor the session notes are still available. What is left is the written record on this site.
How did full-time workers attend if they could not be online at 1 PM Eastern?
They worked the replay windows. Every session streamed live at 1 PM Eastern, which was 10 AM Pacific and 6 PM in the UK, and each ran roughly an hour, though sessions 1, 2 and 3 ran 81, 89 and 82 minutes. A replay reached registered attendees inside 24 hours and had to be watched the same day, because no lifespan was ever stated. With only five sessions, on Sept 6, 7, 8, 9 and 13, the week was manageable around a job.
Can I still watch the September 13 finale?
Not unless you registered before September 6 and still have the email. A replay went up within 24 hours of the finale, like every other session, but the organisers never stated a lifespan and never published a public archive. The official event page now returns a 404 reading "This event is over." No encore stream was announced.
