The Power of Two

You’ve sent dozens of LinkedIn messages. Fired off email after email. Spent hours crafting perfect pitches… only to be met with silence or polite rejection.

For most speakers, booking gigs feels like a grind — endless outreach, constant follow-ups, and rejection after rejection. But what if there was a smarter way to fill your calendar without the burnout?

In this episode, host Danny Bermant talks with Leisa Reid, a speaking coach who has helped countless speakers scale their visibility and revenue through partnerships. Leisa shares her “Speaker Soulmate System,” a proven method for finding the right partners — speakers at a similar stage who share your audience but not your topic — to exchange referrals and get booked consistently.

Catch these highlights from our discussion:

>>The Speaker Soulmate System: How to identify and collaborate with the right speaking partners to create a steady stream of gigs.

>> Why collaboration beats competition: How other speakers can become your best referral partners.

>> Lessons from missteps: What Leisa learned from burned partnerships and how she now safeguards trust and expectations.

>> The mindset shift that accelerates growth: Moving from “solo hustler” to “collaborative connector.”

…and much more!
