For the evening session we have two keynote preesentations

William Buist will give a keynote presentation with the following title:
Building a better speaking business. What have you got to do with it!

Over the last 14 or so years, William has been using speaking as a vital part of his business model. This speech will share unexpected aspects of building a better speaker business and unlock, for you, how to improve your business too.

This talk covers the areas that really matter for speaking businesses that want to be the best that they can be, (and they aren’t all the ones you would expect). Working with remarkable business leaders, William has gathered insight into the things the best do consistently well, but many business owners miss.

Don’t forget to bring your notebook, you are going to need it!

By listening to William’s presentation, you will learn:
– How to attract better speaking opportunities for your business.
– How to run a better business that works for you.
– How to define a better role for yourself

About William Buist:
William had a career in Insurance. He was an underwriter, risk manager, statistician, analyst. He gave all that up, set up his own exciting business, and stopped all that nonsense.

Or did he?

He’s been working with business owners and speakers for 14 years and has seen the things that make a real difference to success. Yet, in the melee of the day to day, many people miss them.

William’s mission is to make sure you don’t!
