Punched Up Panel Palooza

A High-Energy Answer to the Panel Discussion

Yes, panel discussions work. Yes they can be well-received.

Brad loves working with sponsors.   And Sponsors LOVE Working with Brad.

What are the details?

Having trouble meeting Brad Montgomery’s speaking fee?  No sweat…. bring in a sponsor.  They’ll help with the fee, and they’ll beg to do it again next year.  Because Brad has a Black Belt at making sure your sponsors get a huge bang for your buck.

Best of all…. your audience will love you..

Audiences crave top caliber speaks.  But they will NOT put up with a commercial.   If your speaker doesn’t know how to properly help communicate the sponsor’s message without offending the audience, you’ve failed.   But lucky you, Brad’s great at this balance and knows how to make everybody happy.

The secret is twofold.

First, Brad gets to know your sponsors.  REALLY gets to know your sponsors.  He’ll work with them offline to make sure he fully understands their product and/or service.  He’ll know why it’s so fabulous.  Or cutting edge.  Or a great deal.

And best of all, he’ll know the exact talking points or individual messages your sponsors want to communicate to your audience.  And he’ll make sure these points make it into his (Continue Reading…)

Awards Banquets are Always Important.   They are Often Boring.  They Can Be Awesome.

1.   After dinner, Brad Montgomery presents a laugh-out-loud funny motivational speech.   Not really a speech…more of an event.   It will be motivational…and very VERY funny.   We would want to fine tune the message to meet your specific goals for the banquet, but generally speaking, we’d want to offer a message of appreciation as well as a reminder that they should take themselves less seriously…while still taking what they DO seriously. Because this event is a celebration, the entertainment component would be crucial.  My background is in comedy and magic… and we’d draw upon those skills to make sure that people are sitting on the edges of their seats.   But it seems like a waste for it to be JUST entertainment.   So we’d drop in a message that is relevant to them and what their are trying to do.  In life.  At home.  But especially at work.
• Customized humor
• Customized relevant message
• Audience Participation
• Laugh-Out-Loud Funny

2. We recommend you keep Brad around to Emcee the entire Awards Banquet. Details here.   The bottom line here is that having a professional emcee work the event guarantees that the event will (Continue Reading…)

Invest to Assure that Brad’s Program is Wildly Relevant!

Before the event, Brad Montgomery will interview 3-5 top achieving members of your team .     What are their secrets?  What are some of their best practices?  What do they wish they knew when they started?  Brad will find out… and he’ll share the answers.
He’ll report back what he finds in two ways:

1)  He’ll incorporate what he learned from them into the keynote.  (People learn best from their own folks.)  This might sound like a small benefit, but it is huge.   It’s one thing for Brad to say from the platform, “Southwest Airlines has a great practice that isn’t just fun — it earns them money.”  It’s an entirely DIFFERENT thing for Brad to say, “When I talked to Joe Smith and Sally Jones here in accounting, they told me about the most amazing best practice, and the story will fascinate you….”

Investing in having Brad study your organization helps to assure that the program is relevant, meaningful, and completely targed to your audience.  You want power?  You want ‘stickyness?’   Make sure Brad has access to some of your key people.

2)  Brad will make the information (and occasionally the recordings) available to your people (Continue Reading…)

100% Guaranteed, Iron-clad Money Back Guarantee

Here’s my policy about my motivational speaking: if you don’t like what I do for your organization, I’ll give you your money back. Simple, huh? I’ve been professionaly speaking for over 20 years. Yes, I have had wild programs. Yes, I’ve had some hilarious and weird stuff happen on the platform. But I’ve NEVER had a client ask for their money back. Never. But if they would have asked, I’d have given it back no problem. So if that is my informal agreement with myself, why not make it formal?

So here it is again: If you are not satisfied with what I offer, I’ll give you your money back.

To be honest, if I were planning a meeting or convention, knowing that I could re-coup a lousy speaker’s fee would be the least of my worries. (Let’s face it, if you’re planning even a small meeting you have some huge investments OTHER than the speaker to make.)  If I were you, I’d be more worried about whether my speaker can deliver.
