Donald Miller Speaking Topics
Most people hate to sell but feel like they have to sell in order to grow their businesses. Most small-business leaders, real estate agents, financial advisors, and entrepreneurs don’t think of themselves as salespeople but the truth is if they don’t learn to sell, their businesses will suffer. So what’s the solution? The solution is to learn to make the customer the hero and enjoy sales conversations in which we invite customers into a story.
In this keynote, Donald Miller walks through the 5-step process that will make the customer the hero. Those who learn from this keynote will be able to engage in sales conversations that do not feel awkward or forced. They will also be able to write great sales emails, give terrific presentations and create proposals that earn new business. If your audience hates to sell, Donald Miller will help them stop selling and start making the customer the hero.
How do we talk about what we offer in such a way people are guaranteed to pay attention. Most leaders, marketers and salespeople have trouble breaking through the noise. What’s the solution? Invite customers into a story that compels them to pay attention and take action. When you listen to Donald Miller deliver the Building a StoryBrand keynote you will learn a simple, 7-part framework you can use to invite customers into a story.

This keynote is based on Donald Miller’s bestselling book Building a StoryBrand that has been read by more than 800,000 business leaders and continues to sell nearly 200,000 copies per year.
Most small-business owners feel like they are winging it. But feeling like you are making it up as you go along gets frustrating and can make you want to quit. How do we alleviate that frustration and pain? Here’s the key: Understand that your business actually works like an airplane. That’s right, an airplane. The cockpit is your leadership, the right engine is your marketing, the left engine is your sales, the wings are your products, the body is your overhead and the fuel tanks are your cash flow.
If a small-business owner understands how to manage the 6 parts of their business, their business will fly far and fast.
This keynote comes with a robust handout allowing the audience to walk away with a checklist that will ensure their business is in great shape. Some audience members believe this single keynote taught them more than an entire business education.
Don can speak to your entire corporate sales team and train them to invite customers into a story. Right there in the room, Don will share how to follow up with customers by writing a powerful email that will close more sales. Often, millions of dollars of sales are closed in the first 24 hours after Don delivers the keynote. In fact, if your sales team doesn’t close more in sales than you paid Don to speak, within the first month, Don offers his speaking honorarium back to you without hesitation. And by the way, he’s never had to offer anybody their money back.
When you clarify your message, customers engage. But if you're message is confusing, customers ignore you. In the Clarify Your Message keynote Donald Miller walks your audience through the StoryBrand Framework and helps them understand how they can invite customers into a story. The keynote is based on his book Building a StoryBrand which has inspired over 900k business leaders all over the world.
