A fast-track system and community to get you speaking in front of your ideal audience, leverage your expertise, and attract more
right-fit clients.
Speaking is a smart extension of a B2B marketing strategy, so long as you know how to turn each speaking opportunity into real business opportunities.
The struggle is real because:
- You don’t know where to find the right stages with your ideal audience
- You don't know how to pitch your speeches to get an enthusiastic response
- You’ve spoken at events and didn't walk away with the leads you hoped for
Here's the good news: There’s a system for that.
Gone are the days of chasing sporadic gigs and reinventing your message for every stage.
In this cohort, you’ll learn exactly how to:
⭐️ Pinpoint high-value speaking opportunities (of all types) that align with your business goals,
⭐️ Clarify and refine your signature content so that it resonates with your audiences,
⭐️ Create message assets, positioning language, and outreach systems
⭐️ Attract more leads from every type of speaking opportunity.

This is for you if:
- You’re tired of reinventing your message for every opportunity

This isn’t for you if...
- You’re still figuring out your core offer or ideal client.

- You’re not ready to show up and do the work.

Testimonials
“Sharí came in with a holistic strategy for our many presentations throughout the year. With her guidance, some of our presentations converted 50–75% into leads. Sharí’s strategy helped our messaging, brand, and internal alignment.”
“Sharí helped us go from 2 or 3 leads per conference to 30, 40, even 50+. Her customer-focused strategies and communication frameworks boosted our revenue by 62% and made us stand out in a crowded industry.”
"Sharí helped me clarify my content and unique selling proposition for my speeches and workshops. I now have a strategy that connects my speaking to paid consulting and growth.”
“This saved me so much time. I used to spend hours digging around trying to find events and second-guessing what to say in my pitches. This has taken the guesswork out and helped me move forward so much faster!”
“Before working with Sharí, I had speeches and podcast interviews that went well, but they didn't bring in any new clients. Within weeks of working with Sharí, I raised $1—2M from EACH of my speaking opportunities.”
“Sharí’s guidance helped us triple our revenue. She has been a trusted thought partner over the years and we recently celebrated winning Franchise of the Year. She’s been instrumental in refining our communication with my team and in our marketing strategies.”
“Sharí helped me turn my highly technical, industry-specific ideas into clear, compelling speeches. Thanks to her advice, we saw a significant bump in leads from our first audience after working together. Her structure and strategy were exactly what I needed.”
“Even though it was virtual, this honestly felt like I was at an in-person workshop retreat. Sharí structured everything in a way that pulled me out of the day-to-day and into serious strategy mode. It was exactly the kind of deep dive I was hoping for.”
