    Humanizing Your Brand in the Age of Social Media and AI

    Social networks are the new norm, and traditional marketing is failing in today’s digital, always-on culture. Businesses across the world have to face up to how they remain relevant in the choppy waters of the digital ocean.

    In an era where a YouTube star gets more daily impressions than Nike, Coca-Cola, and Walmart combined, traditional marketing as we know it is dead.

    The End of Marketing revolutionizes the way brands, agencies, and marketers should approach marketing. From how Donald Trump won the American presidency using social media and why Kim Kardashian is one of the world’s biggest online brands, through to the impact of bots and automation, this presentation will teach you about new features and emerging platforms that will engage customers and employees.

    Discover bold content ideas, learn from some of the world’s largest brands and content creators, and find out how to build smarter paid-strategies, guaranteed to help you dominate your markets.

    The End of Marketing emphasizes that no matter how easy it is to reach potential customers, the critical relationship between brand and consumer still needs the human touch.

    Learn how to put ‘social’ back into social media and claim brand relevancy in a world where algorithms dominate, organic reach is dwindling, and consumers don’t want to be sold to, they want to be engaged.

    Facebook’s latest algorithm changes have sparked concern for brand and Facebook page managers-many of whom fear that their organic reach will plummet thanks to a new prioritization of interactions with family and friends.

    While marketers today blame their woes including depressed organic reach and engagement on Facebook itself (“It’s Mark Zuckerberg’s fault!”) the fact remains that Facebook is one of the most powerful marketing tools on the planet – more than Google.

    In this master class, you will get a detailed look into the new updates, discover how to leverage Facebook’s suite of tools & features, and learn proactive steps you can immediately take to reclaim organic reach.

    We will also do live Facebook page audits as a group, and you will walk away with a checklist that you can implement immediately back at the office.

    Between DJ Khaled, Kylie Jenner, and Jake Paul, today’s most prominent brands on social media are not Walmart or Nike but instead people also known as “creators.”

    As traditional brands continue to experience depressed organic reach and plummeting engagement, marketers are scrambling for answers on how to stay relevant.

    In this session, you’ll get an entertaining yet detailed look into the state of social media and proactive steps you can immediately use to not only survive but thrive on Facebook now and beyond.

    To succeed as a realtor, you need to stand out. With a solid understanding of social media in your tool kit, you can craft a winning personal brand that helps you generate more leads and, ultimately, sell more homes. In this course, learn the tried-and-true methods for using Facebook, LinkedIn, and more

    Talent FAQ's

    Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

    Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

    The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

    Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

    Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

    • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
    • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
    • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
    • When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
    • Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
    • Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
    • Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
