Build Visibility Through Speaking & Media
Live Founder Q&A with Bobbie Carlton & Rachael Mattice
Build your credibility, grow your visibility, and create more opportunities for your business through public speaking and media.
Stand Out by Sharing Your Expertise

Building a successful business isn’t just about having a great product or service—it’s also about making sure the right people know you exist.

Many founders struggle with visibility. They know they have valuable expertise to share, but they’re unsure how to get invited to speak, pitch themselves to the media, or position themselves as a trusted voice in their industry.

The good news is that visibility isn’t about being the loudest person in the room. It’s about communicating your expertise clearly, sharing your story with confidence, and showing up in the right places.

Public speaking and media coverage are two of the most effective ways to build credibility, expand your network, and create opportunities that support long-term business growth.

Join us for an interactive Founder Q&A with two experienced experts who have helped countless founders become more visible through speaking, storytelling, and strategic media outreach.

Whether you’re just starting to build your personal brand or looking to take your visibility to the next level, this conversation will give you practical ideas you can put into action right away.

Bring your questions, learn from real founder experiences, and connect with ambitious entrepreneurs from around the world.
