Get The Big Opportunity Stage Guide Start Booking The RIGHT Stages Like a Pro
Have you noticed that the top coaches and consultants are speaking on stages?
Would you like to speak on stages that can drive your business and authority to a new level?
Speaking on the RIGHT stages can have a profound impact on your business momentum. Booking one opportunity leads to more confidence and experience…this leads to more stages.
Most people give up before they even start. They fill out the “Call for Speakers,” but this just doesn’t work very well. Don’t take my word for it. I interviewed 59 event planners to uncover what they what and also what irritates them too.
Would you like to be one of the top coaches or consultants that shares your message on top stages?
Here are the 3 Big TRAPS to avoid when developing your strategy to get on BIG OPPORTUNITY Stages…
Trap # 1: Waiting To Be Discovered
You want to speak more, yet you are waiting for the emails to roll in inviting you on the best stages for your business. If this is working for you, great. If not, you likely are missing a proactive strategy that puts you in front of the right people.
After my research, it is clearer than ever to me that “waiting to be discovered” is a bad strategy. Event planners want to discover you when you speak on stages, so you have to do the work to get on the right stages until that creates the momentum of being seen as a thought leader…an authority…an expert.
Waiting rarely works!! Working a solid strategy works consistently!!
Trap # 2: The “Call for Speakers” and the “Pitch Email” are NOT effective strategies to getting selected for BIG OPPORTUNITY stages.
Most conferences offer an online form that will take your information and it seems to go directly to a black hole. Now to be completely direct about this…less than 10% of event planners use the call for speakers as a source for their events.
Instead, event planners love to curate experts that can speak for their stages. They search their network and friends of friends before they will take people from the “call for speakers.
Maybe even worse than the “call for speakers” is the pitch email. It is the template email that gets blasted out to event planners that shares 7 ways you are awesome. The pitch email can actually hurt you more than help you. Most emails are sent with very little care in understanding the event much less the audience.
The more effective solution is simple, yet most people don’t do it. It is having a strategy that builds relationships first. This is the key to getting on the right stages!
Trap # 3: Not clear on their Value Proposition that leads to booking speaking engagements.
Your speech has value (or at least it should). The better you get at understanding how to talk about the value of your talk, the better you will get at booking stages.
It comes down to two key aspects of “value” that determine if you are a good fit of the event planner. The first is the value to the audience. Your expression of how the audience gets stuck in their own way is essential to getting on stages. Next is the value to the event as a whole. Can you help them share the event and expand their reach? Can you get more people to come to the event? Both of these are values to most event planners.
Most speaking proposals touch on value, but really they focus what the speech is about. It is common to submit your proposal and essentially ask the event planner to read between the lines and determine the value of your talk. It is best to clearly state the value to get selected for the bigger stages.
Do you want help understanding exactly what event planners want from their speaker submissions?
Do you want to have a simple strategy that puts you on BIG OPPORTUNITY stages?
Do you want a clear and compelling value proposition that makes you stand out from other speakers?

Step 2:
Your Personalized Strategy Training
Removing the “call for speakers” and the “pitch email” from your bag of tricks leaves most people with an empty bag. I want to help you fill it back up with a proactive strategy that establishes you as an expert.
Now is the time to stop trying things that you think might work and let me share with you what actually does.
The strategy that you use to research and reach out to event planners can make or break you. I will show you what you can do that separates you from others…
- Analyze 3 different strategies that can be selected to fit your personal skills
- Discover what others are doing that is working with 2 case studies with a breakdown of each one
- Use the worksheet to drive your personalized strategy
After this training, you will have a strategy that is more elegant and effective in getting booked on BIG OPPORTUNITY stages. It is based on my own success speaking on over 100 stages that are from a hundred people to over 5000 people too.
Step 3:
Your Value Proposition Training
The speech is not about you. It is not about your ego. In fact, it is not about your business. Your speech is about the audience. It is about changing their behaviors to help them with their problems and pains.
Write a value proposition that is compelling to the event planners (based on 59 interviews)
- Get 3 examples in a breakdown of value (we look at the Good, Better, and Best of value propositions to help you)
- Use a simple framework that allows you to write a value proposition for your speech
- Learn how to use it that puts you on the right stages
When you follow the 3 steps above…
You will have a better understanding of how an event planner thinks which will guide you to a better booking experience for you and the event planner.
You will have a unique strategy that works for you, based on where you are now and what business you in.
You will be able to talk about and write emails about your speech that puts a spotlight on the value the speech has to the audience.
