Energetic, practical, and entertaining talks for business audiences
Need an engaging speaker for your next event? I deliver talks that are practical, useful, funny, and easy to understand. My goal is simple: Give your audience real ideas they can use without making them sit through another lifeless presentation. Book me and your audience will thank you. You might even look good for bringing me in! I’ve been speaking, training, hosting, moderating panels, and teaching since the 1990s. My talks are built for real people dealing with real business decisions, including freelancers, entrepreneurs, small business owners, agencies, marketers, employees, higher ups, associations, professional groups, and company leaders. Audiences often describe my talks as hilarious, entertaining, practical, helpful, and refreshingly direct.
Featured Speaking Topics
My talks often cover areas such as:
- Pricing for freelancers, agencies, and service providers
- Client selection, boundaries, and business confidence
- Self-awareness for business owners and professionals
- Search visibility, SEO, and AI
- Content marketing and audience-building
- Business, entrepreneurship, and freelancing
- Personal development, professional growth, and better decision-making
I offer both big-picture keynotes and tactical sessions with ideas attendees can apply right away.
