  • 4. What Makes the Top Speakers Stand Out? 10 Meeting Planners Weigh in

    Let's connect! Go to advanceyourreach.com and like us on Facebook.

    We are coming to you LIVE from our Speak Off. What is the Speak Off? At our annual 3-day event each year, we host “The Speak-Off” – a competition of the best speakers – judged by the most influential meeting planners in the world.

    This year was our 6th Speak Off and was our best field of competition ever. We started with 100 speakers, and the final 10 were judged by over 60 of the top Meeting Planners in the world who control thousands of stages.

    After the Speak Off, we interviewed the Meeting Planners to find out WHY they voted for who they voted for and what they look for in a Speaker.

    In this episode, we share the top interviews with you.

  • 1. What Is The Greenroom?

    Let's connect! Go to advanceyourreach.com and like us on Facebook.

    What is the Greenroom? A Greenroom is a place where speakers (and other performers) relax when they aren’t on stage –it’s a place to connect with the Event Producers and understand the INSIDE scoop. If you are not on the inside, you are on the outside.

    In 2003, my life was changed FOREVER by 1 man on a stage – and helping people use stages has become my life’s work. My team and I have booked 25,000 Stages worldwide and have experienced first hand some of the most powerful events.

    Along the way, I’ve become friends with the most influential Meeting Planners and Speakers in the world – and now I’m letting you backstage – inside my personal Greenroom, bringing their expertise on how they run their events, and how they make decisions on their speakers.

    In this first episode, I share the power that Events and Speakers have had in my life, the story of why I dedicated my life to them, and how the “Inside the Greenroom” Podcast will help you each and every episode.
