Speaker Information + Resources

What I’ll Ask of You

So this all sounds great, but what kind of work does it require of you? Let’s chat about it! 

1. BASIC INFORMATION

The first thing I’ll need is some basic information from you so I can finish up our registration and speaker page.

If you’re reading this, you’ve already received the form in your email, but you can also find it here.

2. PRESENTATION

Next up is your presentation! This is a 15-20 minute pre-recorded presentation that is meant to be more friendly and casual than perfect and structured. We want our attendees to learn something great, while having fun in the process.

Please structure your content in a way that allows attendees to walk away feeling like they've really learned something, rather than a webinar format where they feel like they're missing something that they need to buy from you ASAP.

With that being said, you have your choice of the following presentation formats:

• Slides

• No slides (just your beautiful friendly face as you talk to camera)

• A mixture of the two

• Interview-style*

*If you’d like to go with the interview-style presentation, schedule a time with me to do that here. We’ll work together to come up with questions.

No matter what format you choose, you are free to use your presentation however you’d like in the future.

Your presentation should include great, actionable content. Here’s the suggested format:

• A quick introduction

• An overview of your topic

• Where people go wrong with your topic and tend to overcomplicate it

• Teaching section

• Specific action steps (with the goal of simplifying their existing process)

• Up to a 3-minute freebie pitch

Presentations are due by September 23rd.

3. ROOTED & RISING VIP PASS CONTRIBUTION

The Rooted & Rising VIP Pass will be a huge addition to the presentations we’re running. To make it even more valuable and to give you an additional way to grow your email list, I’ll ask each of you to provide one resource to add. This includes things like:

• Templates

• Workbooks

• Courses (big or small)

• 1-month memberships

• eBooks

Note: I expect this to convert well so I do not recommend contributing any 1:1 offers.

It’s totally up to you to decide whether you’d like to create something new or provide something you already have. While this isn’t required, it’s highly encouraged that you participate.

Anyone who does contribute a premium resource will get a 50% affiliate commission on sales, rather than 40%. It’s also an opportunity to collect hundreds of extra email addresses as attendees claim your offer.

We cannot accept freebies or percentage-off offers.

Information for these resources is due on Tuesday, September 23rd. You'll receive a questionnaire to fill out closer to that time to make passing the information to me nice and simple.

Attendees will be able to start claiming your bonus right when registration opens.

4. PROMOTION

The power of an online summit comes from a group of experts coming together for a single cause. The joint promotion that happens because of that is a huge benefit to everyone involved.

Because of that, everyone is encouraged to share on social media and to email their lists during the promotion period, starting on September 30th.

You’ll want to share using your affiliate link (you will get an email with your personalized link) so you can get in on the 40% commission that will come from any Rooted & Rising VIP Pass sales (50% if you've contributed a premium bonus).

You’ll find swipe copy and graphics in the Resource Vault below.

5. EVENT PARTICIPATION 

And last comes participation during the week of the event. Since we’ll already have done the work of creating the presentations and extra resources, we’ll be able to sit back and relax for the most part!

All I ask is that you have fun! Check out the FB group and interact with attendees, this a great opportunity for them to get to know you better. 

Affiliate Details

While summits are great for overall visibility and making new connections, a little extra income never hurts either, right?

That’s exactly why I’ve set up an affiliate program for the Rooted & Rising VIP Pass where you’ll receive a commission from all sales from traffic you refer to the event. Payouts will be made by November 1st.

The commission structure is as follows:

• 40% for all speakers

• 50% for all speakers who include a premium bonus 

The pricing structure will be:

• $63 for 20 minutes after initial registration

• $94 from Oct 4 - Oct 14

• $125 from Oct 15- Oct 18

To make it as easy as possible for you to generate extra income, the Resource Vault includes things like email swipe copy, social media copy, and social share graphics. However, you’re more than welcome to write your own copy and even run your own Facebook ads. 

Just remember to use your affiliate link, which you will receive via email.

As with all affiliate promotions, be sure to disclose that you’re an affiliate when sharing with your audience.
