Why we created this program
Speakers are innovators, agents of change, and beacons of hope. That’s why our founder has spent the last 25 years helping them succeed. Not just on stage, but in building thriving, sustainable businesses.
Through his journey, he recognized a critical gap: while many speakers focus on performance, they often struggle to turn their expertise into a scalable business. That’s why he created Oratore Speakers, bringing together a team of expert coaches, each specializing in a key area of the speaking industry, to develop a comprehensive program that helps speakers grow beyond the stage.
As speakers, marketers, educators, and industry professionals, we at Oratore Speakers have been immersed in the world of public speaking for as long as we can remember. Now, we’re all in. Our 6-month advanced speaker program combines decades of experience, proven business strategies, and hands-on mentorship to help experienced speakers build their brand, attract premium clients, and create long-term success.
