  • You’ve watched countless webinars.

  • You’re ready to see real, consistent results and you want a strong coach and a high-level community to get you there.

IF THIS IS YOU KEEP READING...

You want to build out your speaking business - not to be a sometimes success - but a solid business that can leave a legacy that helps you share your voice with the world.

  • STOP READING now if you just want to get a few gigs, but have zero interest in building a sustainable business.

OKAY, STILL WITH ME? LET'S CONTINUE...

You’ve tried building your business on your own and sure you could keep trying that, but you KNOW in your heart of hearts that if you had accountability and the right strategy your message, impact and income would EXPLODE.

 

And…can we talk about something that most shy away from?

MONEY.

  • You want to make money for your message. You know that you can help companies improve, but need to know how to package that to monetize the transformation that YOU provide. 

  • You would love to pitch a five or six-figure corporate contract but don’t know what that looks like.

  • You’d be thrilled about getting recurring corporate revenue by licensing your programs, but how exactly does that work?!?

SPEAK YOUR WAY TO CASH ACADEMY

SYWTC Academy is a high-level immersive coaching experience for experts, entrepreneurs and visionary speakers led by me,  Ashley Kirkwood. 

 

And when I say high-level, I mean it.

 

We help doctors, lawyers, accountants, academics, and experts - people that really know their stuff to package their expertise and build a speaking business that serves THEM and their clients. 

 

Now, maybe you read that and you’re wondering,

 

“Is that me?! Am I an expert?

 

Am a ‘high-level’ expert or speaker?”

 

Chances are, you are, but you’ve been undervaluing your expertise.

 

That’s a mindset issue - we will he addressing mindset throughout our sessions because before you can execute a dope strategy your beliefs have to be in alignment! 


Let me say that again, I want you to have a business that serves YOU and YOUR clients.

TENTATIVE SYLLABUS

TOPICS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Welcome Call & Goal Setting

  • Our welcome call and goal setting will focus on three key areas: (1) Defining Your Offer; and  (2) Analyzing Your Process

Solid Client Attraction Assets 

  • You need assets to attract corporate clients to your email list. Developing these assets needs to be done with the end in mind. Here we will discuss how to develop these client attraction assets.

Market Research Data That Will Help You Build Out Your Six-Figure Corporate Offer 

  • Most understand market research, but there’s a way to do it that will help you sell your signature six-figure service. Developing a market research plan that converts & helps you to position your corporate offer correctly.

Developing Your Earned and Owned Media Strategy 

  • You need a written strategy with goals to help guide your earned and owned media strategy. We will develop that out here.

SOP That You Can Use To Outsource Media Pitching For Your Brand

  • This program is designed for busy high-level CEOs who don’t have extra time lying around. That stated, before you can effectively outsource and get an ROI on that investment, you need SOPs. We will discuss creating them here.

Solid Corporate Email List Building Plan

  • Many think corporate selling is very different from individual selling. I disagree. You need a corporate email list that you can sell to and more importantly, serve. This week’s focus will be selling and serving via email.

Six Figure Proposal Writing & Tailoring 

  • Drafting proposals is an art and you need to get good at it because a template won’t get you to the numbers you are seeking. You need to know the formula behind a solid proposal and how to develop out your own.

Corporate Email Campaign Development and Selling 

  • Your email campaign to clients needs to have a formula - especially when you’re selling.
