WHY AREN'T YOU

CLAIMING YOUR SPOT AS A SPEAKER?

We can get you over the nerves.

Don't worry about that!

The biggest reason people don't conquer the stage is they simply don't know how to put together a compelling talk.

The problem with most speaking programs out there is they don't teach you the KEY INGREDIENT of a persuasive, high-converting talk:

⭐️ YOUR STORY ⭐️

Audiences are SMART. 

They can sniff a fake from a mile away. 

So you want to make sure your talk is loaded with deep, authentic, and highly-connected storytelling so your audience will be moved into action.

🚫 So here's the next problem 🚫 

👉 Most people have NO CLUE how to properly tell their story. 

They either get in the weeds of all the details of their story (they tell TOO MUCH)... or they shy away from the heart of their story (they tell too little).

THE GOOD NEWS IS...

WE CAN FIX THIS!

Inside the Speak Easy, I'm going to help you find the exact story with just the right balance of personal story mixed with your expertise that will have your audience begging for more (which means, they'll want to hire you!) 

The Speak Easy is a 6-month, high-touch coaching container where you'll: 


 
⭐️ craft a powerful talk using our easy-to-follow formulas

⭐️ practice your talk regularly in during your Practicum times

⭐️ watch your confidence go through the roof

⭐️ be a much better speaker than you were entering The Speak Easy

HI, I'M APRIL

YOUR SPEAK EASY GUIDE

I'm a Speaker, Author, and Storytelling/ Visibility Expert — and I’ve built my business on the back bone of speaking.

Since my early days as a Television Journalist making speaking appearances regularly in my community to building a multiple six-figure business commanding stages of all types and sizes, speaking has become my ninja workhorse that drives business to me on repeat.

I created the Speak Easy because even though speaking has worked for me, there are times when I get a little lazy. I needed to add gasoline to the very vehicle that had taken me far in my career, but I had let the tank get empty.

I designed a plan that got me back on bigger stages, making money and generating new leads and new opportunities — and I realized I needed to share this roadmap and process with others.

You're invited to come into The Speak Easy so I can show you how to ramp up your speaking & storytelling skills and turn your speaking gigs into cash for your business!

I’ll be guiding you on the very steps I took (and continue to take) to grow my speaking career.

I've been told the laser feedback and coaching support I give, not to mention the storytelling gold I share, is the differentiator between this program and the many others that are out on the market. 

Join the Speak Easy and discover the difference for yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Is someone actually going to watch and listen to my talk inside The Speak Easy?
    YES. That’s exactly what The Speak Easy is designed to do – we give you a safe, private place to develop, practice, and refine your talk while also giving you valuable feedback in real time. 

  2. Is this a course where I watch a bunch of videos?
    No! This is a high-touch coaching program with loads of support and a direct line to the leader, April. There are supplemental training videos but a majority of The Speak Easy is designed to get you into immediate action “doing” the things you need to do in order to develop and grow as a profitable speaker. 

  3. Will I walk away with tangible Assets that help position me as a professional speaker?
    YES. Inside the Speak Easy we are guiding you step by step to create your professional speaker assets such as a Speaker One Sheet and a Speakers page on your website. VIP MEMBERS get a bonafide professional Speakers Reel and Photos at the conclusion of our Speak Easy LIVE event. In many cases, we provide plug-n-play templates and graphics to help you promote yourself as a highly-sought after speaker.  

  4. What if I haven’t ever spoken publicly before?
    The Speak Easy tailor made for someone who hasn’t spoken professionally before, or who is speaking but doing it inconsistently. This program is ideal for someone who understands that Speaking is a serious vehicle for growing their business, and they are ready to implement this strategy. It doesn't matter what level you are, what matters is your eagerness to take action.
