Branded: Building Brands That Stick

01/29/2026

We work with a lot of public speakers (or those who aspire to be one), and the question we get asked most often is this: How do I get booked on stages?

And while we always have helpful answers and tips to give, we admit we don't have ALL the answers. So, it's time to crowdsource.

My First Stage is launching soon and welcoming speakers from all over to share their stories of how they got booked on their first stage, what led them to their biggest stage, and how they've used speaking opportunities to grow their businesses.

Want to share your story? Head to myfirststagepodcast.com to listen to the trailer and apply to be a guest!

I’m heading to Las Vegas this March with Booklaunchers for the Author Empire Workshop, and I’d love to see you there!

I’ll be speaking about how authors can use podcasting to turn their book into an authority-building platform—not just content, but a tool that drives visibility, relationships, and long-term growth.

If you’re a nonfiction author who knows your book has more potential than sales alone—but you’re unsure how to amplify it—this workshop is built for you.

You can also save $300 on registration with code AE300.

Seats are limited, so grab yours here:

New podcast alert! This show is incredibly special, and we are honored to have been a part of it. Dr. Jonathan Knaul is a truly exceptional human: he spent more than 30 years in the Royal Canadian Air Force, is a distinguished test pilot instructor, and is simply a kind and generous person.

Jonathan stepped away from his career to become a full-time caregiver for his mother when she was diagnosed with dementia, and through that experience, he realized that sometimes, the most challenging missions in life aren't the ones we train for. They're the ones we never see coming.

He is now launching this podcast to share stories of love, loss, and resilience from people who rarely get to show themselves as human.

Listen to the trailer for Final Approach: Human Stories from High-Stress Professions (out now!) and catch the first two episodes when they drop tomorrow.
