Welcome to today's podcast. I am super, super, super excited to talk to you about our upcoming design Live Thrive Summit. I wanna talk to you about why you want to be a speaker, and why being in this particular summit is the best way to jumpstart your business. So welcome back to the Life Coach Business Fielding School.
If you are looking for the fastest way to be seen as an expert, to grow your reputation, to start attracting clients. Today's episode is for you. I'm gonna tell you why becoming a speaker at the Design Live Thrive Summit is the best thing that you can do to change what is happening in your business. So imagine this.
You have positioned yourself as an expert and you are actually talking in front of your ideal audience. You're instantly building credibility in your niche. Why? Because you are a speaker at this summit. You are collecting email addresses from the attendees so you can grow your list. And these are attendees who want.
To talk about life coaching. They want to learn about coaching, they wanna learn about weight loss, career, whatever type of coaching they are there to learn from. People just like you, you are gonna be provided with all of the social media graphics, with your picture on it. You're gonna have all the emails, the captions, everything is written for you, featuring you.
Can you imagine having all of that done for you? That is literally just a fraction of what we do for you in the Design Live Thrive Summit. So you get total hands-on support to create a powerful. Highly converting talk that you won't just use for this summit, but that you can use from this point on, so it's not just another online summit.
I tell you this summit was designed for you specifically with your needs in mind. Lemme give you the backstory to this. I was helping our clients in their businesses for quite some time, and a couple of years ago I thought, you know what? I am getting them so set up for their business. But the one thing they're missing is they need an audience.
They need pretty quick exposure. They need to be seen as an expert. They need to be well respected. They need to grow their email list. How can I do this and create a space? So I created our design Live Thrive Summit. This is gonna be our third year. The attendees are women who want to learn about coaching.
This is an opportunity for our clients to be able to. Step up on a stage, a virtual stage, and to be able to feature themselves as experts. So let's talk about the speaking position that you could have and where you could be seen as an expert. Literally, instantly. So getting coaching clients I know is hard and getting started.
Is difficult. There's a lot of challenges to that. So if you want to build trust fast, I always talk about that. Know, like, and trust. There's a lot that goes on with that. So speaking at an event where you were chosen to be a speaker and you are promoting yourself on social media where it's like speaker at the design led Thrive Summit, when you're able to do that in.
I introduce you as the expert in this particular space. This changes your business. This really is one of the fastest ways for you to stand out in a crowded coaching space. No more will you feel invisible. You're gonna be put in the spotlight. And don't worry if this is making you nervous. You are like, oh my gosh, I think I wanna do this, but this makes me nervous.
You don't have to worry because. We give you all the support. We also give you the mindset coaching, and we get you to a place where you practice and you feel comfortable about it. So we make it super easy. We literally give you everything you need. This is like an entirely separate coaching program. We walk with you every step of the way.
We review everything you do. We give feedback, we make adjustments for you. So we have made it as simple and stress free as possible. So when you join us as a speaker, we're gonna provide you with an entire training on how to not only write your talk, but how to deliver a compelling talk. We're gonna review your talk, provide the feedback, as I mentioned, including your presentation slides.
We actually give you the presentation slides. We show you how to update 'em, and then we review 'em to make sure that you look like a professional. We provide all the social media. We even teach you how to schedule it. We teach you how to use the email marketing, the follow up after the summit. We actually help you grow your email list.
You'll create a freebie. We approve that too, by the way. We actually teach you how to do that. We will help you market that. So when you're doing your talk. You'll have a companion guide that goes with your talk, and we create a website for this summit exclusively, so you'll be able to grow your email list.
We'll teach you how to do that. I'm actually the hostess that is promoting you, myself and our mindset coach. Tys Glen. She's the co-host. We will be promoting you. We'll be telling people, Hey, make sure you sign up and get the companion guide that goes with this talk. Then again, we'll teach you how to follow up afterwards.
So this is huge. Most new coaches, they spend months just getting started on some of these things. They don't even know how to grow an audience. We're gonna teach you how to do this in one single event. Then we're gonna give you an opportunity to build long-term relationships with the attendees by opening up a private Facebook group, so anybody who signs up for this free event to attend the event, and it's a two day summit.
When they sign up, they get invited to our Facebook group. It's a Facebook group where you get to. Begin to cultivate relationships. You get to start showing up there and you use it how you want to, we'll teach you how to do that too, but you get to promote yourself in there. You can offer free coaching in there.
You can do other workshops in there. You can just connect with people. That's what it's really all about, that Facebook group, so you get to answer questions in there while the talk. You get to answer questions in there during the summit, after the summit. Again, inviting people, dropping your links in there, sharing other freebies in there.
It's a way to really warm up the connection with the attendees. The idea is that we want those attendees that have signed up to know you before you step onto the virtual stage. We want you to be connected with them. So instead of spending hours on Instagram trying to find out how you're gonna connect with people, drop into the Facebook group where all of the people who have signed up for the summit will be.
By the way, we will also have a VIP extended replay where people can purchase that and have access to the talks. We've made it super simple so that on our website, your talk, which by the way, we edit for you and we give you the edited copy back so you can use it. On your website for your marketing purposes, as well as us putting in on the Design Live Thrive website and right where it is, you'll have your bio, your picture, the replay, and there also will be able to access your download or your companion guide right in one place.
So for the people who buy the VIP replay, they'll have, you know, extended access. Everybody else who attends will have 72 hours access after the summit. So. This will be a way for you to start getting your first clients literally potentially right from that Facebook group. So the next thing we do is we teach you everything, including the tech.
We literally have a tech training session where we try the tech, we practice it. I know many coaches feel intimidated by tech. Is that you? Well, we're not gonna let you get up on a stage. Again, I'm talking about a virtual stage and talk without feeling so comfortable with what you're doing. So not only do we show you how to write and deliver your talk, review it, give the feedback, but then we're gonna actually teach you how to show up on this platform, how to engage in the chat.
How to bring yourself on as the speaker. This is things that you'll always know how to do, and we give the very basic. Simple steps, and then we're there to help you prior to the summit be able to get comfortable with it. So there's a lot to learn about speaking. There's tech involved. Again, even sharing your slides on this platform, you have to learn how to do that.
This is your chance to stand out and to be respected. Here's what I know for sure. Our previous summit speakers have even said things like. My husband finally takes my business as legitimate. He finally sees me as a coach because I'm a speaker at a summit, my coworkers are finally taking this side hustle as serious.
This is what happens when you show up as an expert. You get noticed, right? You become an authority in your niche. You grow your email list. This is a way for you to find paid clients. You get instant credibility. You're gonna share the stage with lots of other experts. You get hands-on guidance from my entire team.
All five of us are working on this summit with you. There are 32 spots available, and I can tell you many of the spots have already been claimed. So if you want to do this, we have got to talk debbieshadid.com/schedule. This is one time this year. I don't know any other coach anywhere who offers anything like this for their clients.
So you're gonna walk away with the marketing assets, the skills, the leads, a talk that is edited for you to use, and the best part is. You are the showcase. You're the star of the summit. You and all the other beautiful ladies that are gonna be speaking there, 32 speaking spots. You will be the ones that we highlight as our amazing clients, and you get to grow your reputation.
You guys in. I am so excited. This is gonna be very limited availability. I wanna make sure that if you're interested, do not waste any time. debbieshadid.com/schedule. This is an incredible event. I'm so proud of it. I really am. I'm so proud of all the speakers, everything they have done to put themselves out there.
It really is something, and I can just tell you, if you go back and listen to past podcasts or if you go to our social media, or if you've been around for very long, you've seen the episodes about the women who have been in the summit. And by the way, one of the other things you get is you get to be on this podcast.
You'll either be one of the episodes that's before this summit where you're introducing yourself or you'll be after. But if you listen to those episodes. Oh my goodness. People are like on Cloud nine. It is the most rewarding, fun experience. So I want you to become recognized as an expert. I want this year to be the year that your business just really takes off.

Either way, you might be getting started and this is your chance to boy take off really well. This is also your chance to expand it, so if you're ready to be a speaker.
