I've been really surprised at how many people who listen to this podcast have reached out to me about having me speak at their events.

I love that. And here's why. Over the last 13 years, I've had the honor to help hundreds of companies like Nissan, Walmart, Microsoft, and Comedy Central at events around the world.

And during that time, I've developed three big goals for your event. Number one,

I want to slingshot your audience into the best year they've ever had. Whether I'm opening,

closing, or somewhere in the middle of the event, I want to launch everyone out of that room

with actionable, memorable things that they can apply to their work and lives immediately.

Number two, my second goal,

I want the sound team engaged and laughing. The sound team has heard it all. They have, and if I can

make them laugh and learn along the way, the audience is going to absolutely love the keynote.

And number three, my third goal, I want you to get text messages during the keynote.

My favorite sentence to hear from you after I speak is,

John, my phone was blowing up during your keynote.

I'm there to make you look like a rock star, not me.

If your boss texts you during my speech and compliments you on how well the event is going,

then I know I've done my job.

Whether it's virtual or live, 10,000 people in an arena, or 15 sales team members on WebEx or

Zoom or Microsoft Teams, I'd love to help you with your next event.
