Each of our Speakers will share the event with their own email lists and their own communities, and we will also share the event with our 100,000 people on MeetUp to insure an excellent turnout for everyone.
Speakers who promote will be rewarded with prizes and shout outs before, during, and after the event.
Our Speakers Are Members Of CIBN Connect (But We Guarantee An ROI)
If you are not familiar with CIBN Connect you may not realize that this is a members organization where our Speakers Level of member signs up to speak for our many events each year. There are 6 major events and dozens of smaller events that our speakers can speak at. Membership gives you speakers training, speakers tools to fill events of your own, magazine coverage (if you buy the annual) and a booking tool that is used on LinkedIn as well. Many summits ask speakers for a fee. There is no fee for one summit, but you do access many speaking events with membership.
We don't require that you have an email list of 5,000, but our membership at the Speakers Level will show you how to gain a following of more than 10,000 people with simple repeat steps on the social channels of your choice. We recently used these steps on MeetUp as a new platform and went from zero to 45,000 in the last 5 months. This is the kind of thing we teach our speakers to do.
The Speakers Membership is $77/month but there are 3 major benefits of signing up $777 for the year:
- $147 in savings or basically 2 months for free
- A full page in the Connector Magazine valued at $1500 and then another full page in the Bold, Beautiful & In Business Magazine valued at another $1500.
- We will market an event of yours (webinar, seminar, coffee chat) to our 44,000 people on MeetUp twice a year. It generally puts 20 to 40 butts in seats each time, so as long as you can sell this is a HUGE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!
Furthermore we will guarantee that you make 3 times what you spent, and if you do not, then we will give you another year for free!
If you are not a Member yet and you have questions, book time with our CEO Kerry George.

Stress to Success The Power of Leverage and a NetworkMICHEL HANCOCK
In this talk, we explore how smart entrepreneurs use protection, preparation, and partnerships to rise above chaos and uncertainty. By tapping into the right legal resources, insurance coverage, and network connections, you don’t just avoid setbacks—you build unstoppable momentum. This is about more than business—it’s about legacy, leadership, and lasting peace of mind.
You’re Not Too Small for Real Support: How to Stop Spinning and Start Scaling with ConfidenceVicki James Small Business Strategist & Systems SimplifierSo many solopreneurs believe they have to “earn” support—waiting until they’re bigger, busier, or more profitable before reaching out for help. But in reality, trying to do everything alone slows growth, increases burnout, and keeps you stuck in reaction mode.
In this engaging, practical session, Vicki James reveals how small business owners can reclaim up to 90 minutes a day by letting go of the “I have to do it all” mindset and embracing right-sized support and systems. You’ll learn how to identify your biggest time leaks, simplify your operations, and bring clarity to your finances so you can stop feeling behind and start moving forward with confidence.
Drawing on 25 years in corporate project and financial management, and her current work with solopreneurs through Beyond Aligned Books and Thrive Hive, Vicki shares the systems, workflows, and mindset shifts that have help small business owners streamline without sacrificing control.
You’ll walk away with:
- A 3-part framework to spot and fix your biggest operational bottlenecks
- The truth about what’s really costing you time and money (it’s not what you think)
- A better way to think about delegation, automation, and financial clarity
If you’re ready to feel less chaos and more clarity, this session is for you.

Business Leadership +4Marketing Business +13Empower Yourself to Say No Guilt-FreeLisa Birnesser Empowerment CoachHave you ever said yes when every part of you wanted to say no? You’re not alone. High-achieving women are often praised for doing it all, but behind that praise is pressure, perfectionism, and the quiet cost of burnout.
In this empowering talk, coach and former wellness center owner Lisa Birnesser shares how over-giving, people-pleasing, and guilt can quietly take over your life and business. Through relatable stories and practical tools, she offers a new way forward—one built on boundaries, not burnout.
Lisa reveals the three keys to saying no with clarity and confidence:
- Values-Aligned Choices
Learn how to make decisions rooted in what truly matters—without second-guessing or overexplaining. - Confident Delegation
Let go of “I have to do it all.” Build trust, ask for help, and free yourself to focus on your strengths. - Radical Self-Honor
Shift from self-sacrifice to sustainable care. Saying no becomes an act of self-respect, not guilt.
Expect direct insight, emotional resonance, and real-world examples. You’ll explore how guilt often masks a fear of rejection or feeling less than, and learn how to shift into a grounded, powerful presence that honors your time, energy, and authenticity.
This talk isn’t about being less available. It’s about being more present, for what really matters. Whether you’re leading a team, running a business, or dealing with life’s demands, you’ll walk away with tools to set boundaries that feel empowering, not defensive.
Saying no doesn’t make you less kind. It makes you honest, transparent, and whole.
Because boundaries aren’t walls. They’re invitations to be fully yourself.
