Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Most Speakers Leave Money on the Table at Events with Jonathan Dunnett - 339
Q: What should speakers do before and after an event to maximize ROI?
Identify business goals and the specific opportunities the event can create; map out who to meet, arrange pre-arranged meetings like coffee or lunches, and maintain a customer-journey mindset after the event to convert relationships into opportunities.
Why Most Speakers Leave Money on the Table at Events with Jonathan Dunnett - 339
Q: What happened with the speaker who had 500 ideal customers in the room but came away with only eight leads?
The speaker didn't have a deliberate plan before/after the talk to connect with attendees; they spoke and hoped for deals instead of actively meeting, scheduling follow-ups, and nurturing relationships, which led to a lot of unrealized potential.
The Psychology of a Speaker Reel That Gets You Booked with Max Partain
Q: What's the difference between a Speaker Reel Strategist and a traditional editor?
Max describes a strategist as someone who combines editing with a clear positioning and narrative plan to align the reel with market demand, not just assembling clips.
How to Create a Disney-Level Speaking Experience with Vance Morris - 336
Q: What's the most effective way to differentiate yourself as a speaker beyond delivering a great talk?
Create an end-to-end experience that starts before you speak (unboxing items, personalized gifts), during the talk (audience engagement, live demonstrations), and after (handwritten notes, ongoing newsletters). Integrate direct marketing principles to stay top-of-mind and provide ongoing value.
How to Create a Disney-Level Speaking Experience with Vance Morris - 336
Q: How would you suggest that they could be going about things differently in terms of turning one gig into many?
Offer multiple formats (keynote plus workshops or executive sessions), price for the day, and actively pursue repeat engagements in different locations or departments. Build in a clear back-end pathway and provide tangible assets (workbooks, follow-up materials) to justify ongoing work and invitations from sister events.
