Stageside Leads: How smart speakers win more gigs, more often, at higher fees without spending a dime on marketing
They tell us to build our personal brand. Shoot those YouTube videos. Increase our engagement on TikTok. Launch that podcast. They tell us to create a one-sheet, send it to organizers, and follow up.
No response? That's okay. Follow up again.
They tell us that we need to do more direct outreach if we want to book more gigs. Publish more content. Buy more ads. They tell us that the key to filling up our calendar is to pick a niche and promote ourselves.
Still nothing.
But what if the key to building a sustainable speaking career requires none of those things? What if the fastest and most effective way to win more gigs, more often, at higher fees, is by tracking only one number: stageside leads?
A stageside lead is a request to speak at another event secured within 72 hours of stepping off the stage or powering down your web camera. It's the most important number to speakers' bureaus. Shouldn't it be for you too?
In this exhilarating 3-hour workshop that will change your approach to speaking success, full-time keynote speaker Andrew Davis will break down exactly how to take any speech from $0 to $20K per gig in less than six months.
You'll learn how to leverage the Velocity Philosophy and exploit Fee Parity. He'll show you how to set your fees, profit from the power of Compounding Gigs, and map your referral tree for long-term sustainable success. You'll even see how he books 55 gigs a year at a quotable fee of $20K... without a speaker bureau. (You'll even learn why you don't need one.)
So, are you ready to leverage the power of stageside leads and turn 1 gig into 100?
After a morning with Andrew, enjoy connecting with old speaker friends and new over lunch. Following that networking time, HEROIC (formerly Heroic Public Speaking) will lead us through the afternoon with a focus on sharpening our stage skills and elevating your performance, no matter where you are in your speaking journey.
