SigM (Speaker & Influencer Growth Mindset) is a professional speaker growth and management program designed to support speakers, thought leaders, and influencers in turning their expertise into sustainable speaking opportunities. SigM focuses on positioning, branding, and backend support for speakers who want to grow their impact without carrying the full burden of marketing, pitching, contracting, and logistics on their own. The program is built as an ongoing partnership rather than a one-time service, supporting long-term professional growth and consistency. SigM is especially intentional about amplifying voices from underserved and underrepresented communities, ensuring they are prepared, positioned, and supported to access platforms where their knowledge and lived experience can drive meaningful change.
SigM is designed for individuals who:
Have strong subject-matter expertise but limited or inconsistent speaking bookings
Are ready to professionalize their speaking or influencer work
Want support with positioning, branding, and opportunity development
SigM provides structured support across key areas of speaker growth, including:
Speaker positioning and message clarity
Development of professional speaker assets
Opportunity identification and alignment
Administrative and logistical coordination
Participants begin with an onboarding and assessment process to clarify goals, readiness, and fit. From there, SigM works collaboratively to refine positioning, strengthen professional assets, identify aligned opportunities, and provide ongoing support around engagements. This process is cyclical and iterative, allowing speakers to refine their approach, expand reach, and grow sustainably over time.
SigM operates on a performance-aligned model, meaning support is tied to real opportunities and outcomes. In some cases, specific development services may involve additional fees, which are discussed transparently during onboarding.
SigM exists to reduce barriers, administrative burden, and burnout for speakers, while increasing access, visibility, and long-term growth. The program emphasizes readiness, integrity, and alignment, ensuring speakers are not only booked, but supported to grow with purpose.
SigM works with a limited number of participants to ensure quality and impact. Participation is based on fit, readiness, and alignment with program goals.
