Speak at The Scale Smarter Summit and Help Founders Finally Build Businesses That Run Without Them

Some of the most talented founders in the world are quietly stuck. They've built something real, crossed six or seven figures, and yet they still spend their days putting out fires instead of leading. If you've ever helped a founder step out of the day-to-day and into the role of true CEO, we'd love to have you on the stage at The Scale Smarter Summit.

This is a live virtual summit running from Tuesday, September 22nd through Thursday, September 24th. Sessions go live each day starting at 10:00 AM ET / 9:00 AM CT / 7:00 AM PT, so you'll be presenting in real time to an engaged, motivated audience of growth-minded entrepreneurs.

Who We're Looking For

We're bringing together a curated lineup of experts, coaches, and operators who know how to turn a chaotic one-person show into a high-performing, self-managing organization. If your work sits in any of these areas, you'll be right at home:

• Authentic leadership and executive presence, helping founders lead with strategic clarity and inspire real ownership across their teams.
• A-player hiring systems, so founders can attract, identify, and onboard top talent that drives growth instead of drama, and sidestep the crippling cost of a bad hire.
• High-performance culture, including accountability structures, team rituals, and communication cadences that create results-driven, self-managing teams.
• Legally sound HR and people operations, giving founders compliant systems that protect the business and let them lead professionally and ethically.
• Operations and systems that scale, with the frameworks that let a business grow sustainably without the chaos.
• Delegation and leadership development, so founders can reclaim their freedom and step back into the visionary seat.

Why You'll Want to Be Part of This

Our attendees are serious business owners who show up ready to take notes and take action. That makes this a genuinely rewarding room to teach in. You'll share your best frameworks with people who can actually apply them, grow your visibility alongside a respected lineup of fellow experts, and connect with an audience that's actively searching for the kind of guidance you provide.

Speaking live also means real conversation. You'll get to answer questions, read the room, and create the kind of moments that turn attendees into long-term clients and advocates for your work.

What We Ask of You

Come ready to deliver something practical and specific. The most memorable sessions hand founders a clear system, a repeatable process, or a leadership shift they can put to work the very next day. Bring your real-world stories, your frameworks, and the hard-won lessons that only come from doing the work.
