    This one thing can skyrocket your trust and credibility.

    Want to 10x your agency's credibility in your vertical?

    Speak at their conferences.  

    We did this as a ton at Scorpion; it helped us skyrocket our trust and credibility. 

    Here's what I learned: Event organizers prefer speakers who offer useful content, resonate with the intended audience, and create a memorable experience. 

    Here are 3 ways to increase your chances of being selected:

    • Organizers want speakers who are experts in their field. Showcase your achievements, credentials, publications, and areas of specialization.

    • Align your content with the event’s objectives, audience, and theme. Understand the purpose of the event and pitch topics that resonate with that.

    • Organizers look for fresh and innovative ideas. Offer a unique perspective or groundbreaking insights.

    Keep in mind that being asked to speak on the main stage requires a great deal of trust and credibility that builds over time. 

    As you get there, consider other speaking opportunities, such as a panel or hosting a breakout. All are valuable.
