Sell from the
Stage Without
the Ick

Getting applause is lovely.
Getting clients is better

A free online masterclass for established and emerging speakers who want more commercial value from speaking opportunities.

You’ve done the hard bit…

You’ve got the speaking gig.
You’ve written the talk.
You’ve practised it, polished it, delivered it.

People laugh in the right places. They tell you they loved it.

And then… crickets.

No enquiries. No conversations. No clients.

Sometimes you haven’t even been paid to speak. So by the time you’ve factored in the travel, the preparation, the time away from your business and maybe even a hotel, that stage has actually cost you money.

But that doesn’t mean just turning your talk into a sales pitch

Nobody wants that, least of all you!

In this free masterclass, we’re going to look at your signature talk from the other side of the stage.

We’ll examine:
* Why a good talk can get a brilliant reaction and still lead to no clients.
* Why too much information actually makes it harder to see show value
* How to show people what you do, rather than simply telling them
* What needs to happen before the final 60 seconds so continuing the
conversation feels like a natural next step, not an awkward sales gear-change.

Does this work?

YES! One experienced speaker had delivered the same storytelling talk numerous times without selling anything from it.

After working with me, she changed one thing.

Instead of simply talking to the audience about storytelling, she brought them into the experience and gave them a small opportunity to work with the idea for themselves.

People came up to her afterwards wanting to know more.

One of those conversations became £2,500 of 1:1 work.

That is the difference between telling people what you can do and letting them experience it.

And that’s what we’re going to explore together.

Should you book?

✓ You’ve delivered talks and want to generate business from the stage.
✓ You want to involve your audience and not just talk at them.
✓ You want to learn how to sell from the stage without dying inside.

✕ You want to dip your toe into public speaking.

Of course, there’s a bit at the end where I’m going to tell you about my six week programme but I’ll do it without the ick.
