Founder and current owner of a global speakers bureau booking hundreds of engagements per year. Over 25 years of coaching and developing speaker talent.
I have over 25 years experience in the speaking industry and am the current owner of a global speakers bureau representing hundreds of the world's best seasoned and emerging keynote speakers.
I provide exclusive insights into what clients are looking for in today's market and how to position your work to get more speaking engagements. I can also provide coaching on speech development, a marketing material audit (website, one-sheets, demo video, program outlines, etc.) and ideas around book content/positioning. You will gain relevant, actionable content from our call.
My coaching is relevant to both seasoned and emerging speakers. I also work with many people who are thinking about getting into the speaking business but need guidance about how to approach the industry. I can quickly help you develop an action plan and determine if launching a speaking career will be valuable to your overall goals.
Some of the the questions I am asked: ===> How can I reach more potential decision makers? ===> How can I position my speech content for the market? ===> How do I create the best demo video? What elements go into a good demo video? ===> How to work with speakers bureaus and get them interested in my work? ===> How do I deliver a speech that will make people want to book me more? ===> What should my speaking fee be? ===> How do I brand myself? ===> What is the career path for a speaker? ===> Do I need to write a book to generate more speaking engagements? ===> Can you give me specific advice on my program outlines, website and demo video?
Michael understands the speaking industry at a deep level, and can tell you every detail that will give you an advantage. Everything from what time of year to apply, down to how to frame and angle your application to speakers bureaus. He reviewed my videos and questions before the call, and took the time to go over each of them in full. I plan on booking a call with Michael again, and I would recommend talking to him about your speaking career any day.
