For aspiring speakers wanting to build their unique speaking brand, write a standout keynote talk and get paid to speak on stages
I'll be honest: I've got beef with the speaking industry.
Why? It's so invisible.
- How do you even get started?
- What should you charge?
- How do you negotiate speaking terms?
- What do you need to include in a keynote talk?
- How do you get gigs when events want you to have experience but you can't get experience without experience?
Nobody talks about it. So aspiring speakers are left in the dark, not knowing where to start to put together their speaking portfolio, let alone how to write a talk that will get them paid, then booked again and again.
If you are a personal brand, founder, or aspiring speaker wanting to be invited for keynotes, panels, or workshops, I've got you!
Having a brilliant idea is not enough if you don't know how to structure it into an engaging keynote talk
Having a unique lived experience is not enough if you don't know how to package and sell your speaking brand
Having passion is not enough if you don't know how to price your speaking services, so you avoid it completely
Being a world-class communicator isn't enough if you don't have content that people will pay for
I will guide you on how to:
Position your speaking authority so event organisers see you as a professional speaker, not a beginner
Assemble your Speaker Portfolio with branding photos, bio, video trailer, testimonials, and more
Find upcoming events to apply and pitch yourself
Pitch yourself in a way that stands out so you are shortlisted
Write your signature talk or workshop that can get you paid tens of thousands
Put together speaking proposals that close deals
Ensure you get rebooked for future events, and more!
Essentially, it's everything I wish I knew when I first started :')
