Your host - Cat Griffin
Hi there!
I’m so thrilled that you’re interested in speaking at the Courses and Memberships Summit
This is going to be such a powerful event for online business owners, and I’d love for you to be part of it.
A little about me: I’ve hosted over 15 summits (and more than 30 bundles), so I know what it takes to put together an event that not only attracts the right audience but also helps speakers shine.
My goal with this summit is to create an easy, supportive experience for you as a speaker while showcasing your expertise to an engaged audience of entrepreneurs who are eager to launch their next big offer with confidence and clarity.
The community you’ll be speaking to is filled with amazing coaches, service providers, and digital entrepreneurs who are ready to bring their ideas into the world—whether that’s a brand-new course, membership, service, or digital product. They’re looking for strategies, encouragement, and real-life guidance to make their launches simpler, more effective, and more successful.
And if this is your first time speaking at a summit—don’t worry. You’ll be supported every step of the way. I’ll provide everything you need to make your participation smooth and stress-free, and if you ever have questions, I’m just a message away.
As a speaker, you’ll also gain visibility in front of a highly engaged audience, grow your email list with new subscribers who are excited about your work, and position yourself as a go-to expert in your field. Plus, you’ll be joining a collaborative community of fellow entrepreneurs who love to support and lift each other up.
Don't just take my word for it though!
