Speaking
Not a boring, stuffy, keynote in sight! Your audience deserves better.
Tired of speakers that are ‘all sizzle, no steak’? Me too.
Here’s the deal:
You want people to leave your event or conference signing up for your next one, and telling allllllll their friends how awesome it was. You want to eavesdrop during the snack break and hear your team and your guests saying “wow!”, making your event the place to be.
That means: you need your speaker to deliver.
Good ideas and pretty slide decks are great, but actual engagement, pants-on-fire enthusiasm, and memorable takeaways are better.
I’m a “wow!”-worthy speaker. I insist on bringing big ideas to life, sharing insights and examples from real-world experiences, and making sure people leave with something to ACTION. (Again, love an idea - but implementation is even better!)
“Amanda! I can’t tell you how many times I have heard your name in the last 48 hours! Your session received an average of 5.8/5 on the feedback form. That is because six people wrote extra numbers like ‘20’ beside the max score of 5.”
Amanda’s style is engaging, impactful, and memorable. (Bonus: She’s funny too!)
Amanda is the right speaker for you if you need someone who:
is professional (but not stuffy or boring).
“gets” your audience and researches what they want (no cookie-cutter keynotes here!).
can work off the cuff while staying true to clear objectives (no tangents or time wasting).
blends entertainment with a clear and actionable message (without making you jump up and down with strangers).
gives a shit about what you and your audience want to achieve, and helps get you there.
traded the traditional Toastmasters for stand-up comedy classes (seriously, she’s funny).
"There are loads of people that talk a good game, but Amanda Wagner talks the talk, walks the walk, and helps you make it happen too."
-Amelia Nash, Designer + Brand Strategist
Hire Amanda if you insist on:
A customized presentation with clear takeaways that make your audience say “she’s reading my mind!”.
A memorable experience that will leave your audience educated, excited, and inspired to get shit done.
People coming to you after to ask, “where did you find this gem of a speaker, you brilliant being?”
"Meeting Amanda was like getting a map to my goals, where the road had been cleared of hazards and detours. I know exactly where I'm going now, and how to get there. Amanda helped me give MYSELF permission to be great at what I do and unapologetic about it."
-Evelyn Ratcliffe, Partner + General Manager, Alair Homes
