The STAR Marketing Summit is a Speakers and Trainers Accountability Roundtable that meets twice a year for training, goal setting, networking, accountability, and celebration. You have content, skill, and passion. It’s time to get out there and get paid for it! Consultants, authors, healers and other life changers also participate and benefit greatly from being part of this community.

If you are working for someone else and want to venture out into being entirely your own boss, this is your event. If you are a professional speaker, trainer, coach, or visionary, you can build your business through participation in this group. If you want to become an independent speaker or coach – we can support you.

How Star Marketing Summit is different and why it is so effective:

STAR Marketing Summit is the event for those who want to build their business to the point where they have more choices, not just in which dates to book, but what kind of life they want to lead. This is the seventh in a series of summits that began in Chicago in 2014 as a continuation of an event that began in Charleston, South Carolina in 2008. That event changed lives; new revenue streams were created for all. The Winter Marketing Summit was the next event in the series. From that event, held in Fort Lauderdale, four mastermind groups were created and deliverables committed for the STAR Summit held in July of 2015 in Philadelphia. The January 2016 Summit in Dallas featured an expanded topic offering. The  July 2016 in Chicago merged the intimacy and support of previous summits with variety and professional polish of the Dallas Summit. The July 2017 Summit in Long Beach, California featured speakers who grace big stages with the likes of Larry Winget teaching us how to create a story, point of view, and presence to hit the top. In July of 2017 in Charlotte, emphasis shifted to hands-on creation of all the infrastructure you need to get contracts – a keynote, topic catalog, coaching curriculum, proposal, expert reputation, and social media. January 2018 in Dallas we featured a Speaker Showcase and heard from several hugely successful speakers, including the owner of a speaker’s bureau. July 2018 in Denver, we went for a full-out, hands-on VIP Master Class experience to get all your Ducks in a Row and get the gigs! January 2019 in Atlanta, we got insider secrets to drive to up our game and get contracts. August 2019 in Nashville, seasoned pros taught us how to leverage stories, books, and experiences to draw clients naturally. January 2020 Dallas was our most star-packed event yet! July 2020 we met in Las Vegas for a hybrid event with iconic speakers like Marilyn Sherman and Darren LaCroix. January 2021 and January and July 2022 were 100% virtual with virtual experts like John Chen, gamification specialists from Sententia, and leaders of speakers bureaus, TED Talk experts, Life-Change Gurus, and transformational activities. October 2023 brought lots of heart and AI.

Topics Covered: Selling your speaking or other service to businesses, Building your list and social network, Creating and selling products, Developing a line of offerings, Writing and publishing your books and other materials, Leveraging the upsell, Creating passive residual income, etc. Details will be available on the Schedule page.
