How to Write a Winning Speaker Proposal: Stand Out and Get Booked for More Speaking Opportunities
Pitching yourself for speaking opportunities can feel nerve-wracking — but it doesn’t have to be.
In this episode, I (AI Carol) walk you through exactly what to include in your speaker pitch or proposal so it resonates with organizers and increases your chances of getting booked.
Whether you're submitting directly to a conference or posting your speaker info on your website, you'll learn how to position your talk and experience in a way that highlights your value — not just your resume.
You’ll discover:
- How to craft a captivating title and talk description that stands out
- What to include in your speaker bio to establish credibility without sounding boastful
- The often-overlooked section that shows event organizers you truly understand their audience
- What to include on your website’s speaker page to make it easier for organizers to say “yes”
Plus, I share a story of a pitch I sent to a major marketing and AI event—and how strategic writing made the difference.
Your pitch is more than a formality. It’s your first opportunity to connect, inspire, and demonstrate the transformation you can deliver from the stage.
