In the Bold Speaker’s Collective you’ll learn how to create speaker assets that help you stand out, get found by event organisers, book big name gigs, present like a #boss at both online and live events, sell from the stage and SO MUCH MORE!
With an average of 40+ speaking, podcast, conference, workshop and masterclass gigs a year over the last 7+ years, I know exactly what it takes to connect with people who need what you have!
And with the Bold Speaker’s Collective I’m sharing it all with YOU.
Want more presence, confidence and purpose on stage?
Want to get more exposure and brand awareness for your business?
Want to share your message with the world?
Want to do it all with the support of a seasoned speaker, coach and small biz cheerleader?
Of course you do!
Everything you need to position yourself as a sought after speaker and land opportunities that will level up your business in a BIG way.
You’ve seen others landing podcast spots, hosting online workshops and even getting invited to present on stage.
And you’re wondering when the same opportunities are gonna come knocking on YOUR door.
But here’s the thing, speaker invitations don’t just magically appear when you reach a certain level in your business or hit X years experience.
Like everything else when it comes to small biz, it takes strategy, positioning and work to create a speaker brand that is irresistible to event organisers
(and anyone else who needs that special brand of awesomesauce you know you have).
So you want to build your brand as a speaker but you have no idea where to start.
I had approached Suz for help with improving my communication skills, in the event I started public speaking. It has been amazing to brainstorm with her and organize my thought processes. She has hands-on practice and tips that really make a difference – It has, in fact, made me look at things differently, for the better.
Since working with Suzanne I've started my podcast and presented webinars with more confidence. She is so genuine with sharing and she is that key booster for me to make it happen.
I can't recommend her highly enough for anyone looking to step up as a speaker.

How do I pitch to a podcast host?
What should I say?
What information will event or podcast hosts need from me?
How can I show that I'm a speaker when I haven't really spoken anywhere
How do I get (good) testimonials?
Do I always have to speak for free?
How do I charge as a speaker?
How can I use speaking opportunities to get more clients?
… and the list goes on.
I want to see more of the fabulous humans in my community build their speaker brand because I know how effective speaking is at helping a business grow.
And as a podcast host and event organiser I’m always on the lookout for speakers to showcase (and to refer to others).
So, I created the Bold Speaker's Collective.
The questions I get ALL THE TIME:
A course, community and membership to help you build your brand, stand out in your industry and become a bold and powerful voice that gets noticed.

I chose Suzanne to speak at my event because, not only is she a subject matter expert on all things branding, but she brings great energy to every event she speaks at.
Suzanne didn't disappoint, her bright and engaging talk was a highlight of the event, and received great feedback scores. Her content was perfectly pitched to my audience and I feel she'd worked hard to ensure it was at the right level and relevant.

Speaking isn’t just A LOT of fun, it’s also one of the most powerful ways to grow a successful brand and business. And you don’t have to be a natural limelight hog like me to build a brilliant and bold speaker brand.
I created The Bold Speaker’s Collective to show you how.
So, if you have even an inkling that you want to use speaking to…
• Create more impact and reach more people with your brand of awesome sauce.
• Become a bold and powerful voice in your industry.
• Stand out from the crowd and be a name that your ideal clients know and seek out.
• Level up in a BIG way
Then the Bold Speaker’s Collective is for you. YES… even if you’re not an extravert.
Because the confidence, opportunity and success you’re seeking isn’t going to come from watching others and hoping someday you’ll get noticed, too.
But they WILL come from getting super clear on your message and voice and proactively building your speaker brand.
And you don’t have to do it alone, the Bold Speaker’s Collective is right here to help you make it happen!
PS: even though it’s a highly effective way to build a brand, I know that not everyone wants to speak at events, have a podcast or be centre stage. And I totally get it. If you know for sure that speaking isn’t your thing, full permission here to seek out other ways to build your brand that feel more comfortable for you right now (maybe we’ll see you over in Brand Builder’s Academy to help you explore how).
But Suz, I’m not a giant extravert and the thought of speaking kinda makes
me nervous...
How does it work?
The Bold Speaker’s Collective is a self-paced online course with pre-recorded videos, audio files and template downloads.
Which means you have ultimate flexibility and freedom to complete lessons when it suits you best, yep even on your daily walk! And templates to swipe and complete when you have time back at your desk.
You have lifetime access to the course, for the life of the course. So you can come back to it whenever you need (and get access to future enhancements or additions, too).
You’ll also have access to a Facebook community where you can connect with other speakers, share your tips, ask questions and be found by those looking for someone to speak on the topic you specialise in.
