Momentum: How to 10X Your Business and Brand in the Digital Age

Whether you’re big or small, B2B or B2C, today’s digital landscape is constantly changing — and news travels at the speed of a social media post. There is a cacophony of platforms, messages, and choices, making it difficult to create the momentum you need to compete in today’s noisy marketplace.

How do you consistently engage your audience? How do you figure out the “HOW, WHEN, WHERE, and WHY” in a way that aligns with your goals? How do you become known as a trusted, market leader?

Marketing in today’s digital age has become overwhelmingly complex, but it doesn’t have to be.

Close Before You Convince: How to Sell in the Digital Age

When it comes to digital selling, there’s a massive shift happening: a vast majority of consumers are making a buying decision before they ever contact a salesperson.

Furthermore, today’s research shows that digital self-serve and remote rep interactions are likely to be the dominant elements of any sales process moving forward.

Here’s the reality: the majority of buyers today have already decided which company they want to do business with before they ever speak to a salesperson. This means that before they ever reach out or connect with you, prospects already have formed a solid impression of your company.

Sales and marketing are the lifeblood of any business, and there’s still tremendous opportunity to capture new clients. (After this keynote, you will never sell the same way again!)

Key points in this program:

  • The three things that will out-perform your competition every time
  • Why loyalty is a lie and what you should focus on instead
  • The great data delusion and how it’s keeping you from success
  • A key strategy that will increase traffic, leads, and sales
  • How to leverage video content to connect with customers, land referrals, and close new deals
  • Lower cost per acquisition and cut your sales cycle in half, all while learning the metric that matters more than ROI
The Digital You: Leadership and Personal Branding in the Digital Age

Today’s leaders are being called to a new standard: the digital one.

With so many options for creating a personal brand online — from social media profiles to virtual networking opportunities — it’s more important than ever to assert your influence through the right channels.

This might seem easier said than done. After all, how do business owners and corporate leaders know which technologies to use to connect more deeply with their audience, grow their brand, and create a greater impact? Rather than running from technology, leaders can embrace these new opportunities, and learn to leverage technology to engage, influence, sell, and lead.

After this keynote, you will understand what’s required to build a compelling platform, how to make your voice heard, and how to influence those who matter most.

Key points in this program:

  • Learn the five principles for building a compelling personal brand and finding your role in the digital landscape
  • Establish yourself as a thought leader across audiences — with customers, employees, and stakeholders alike
  • Generate better results from your leadership efforts as a result of growing your platform
  • Attract and retain your best talent as a direct result of your thought leadership
  • Be invited to the right proverbial deal tables more often
