With some creative ideas, that have worked for small and large groups, you’ll create a more impactful event that will get your members excited and teach them new skills they can use, right away to convert more leads and close more sales.

“ Worth every cent! Alan Berg was so easy to work with and fully engaged for us in the entire process. Alan worked with me to structure the day for a successful financial outcome that really made the day work for us. – Bob Stock, Central Coast Wedding Professionals, San Luis Obispo, CA

How does it work? Really well!

Arrange a Sponsored Mastermind, Sponsored Training and/or VIP Master Class!

If you’re like most associations, you usually have either a lunch or dinner meeting, during which you have a speaker. Most of those speakers are industry pros who come to present to your group. Alan, on the other hand, is a professional speaker, sales trainer, author of 7 books and former VP of Sales at The Knot, who was included as one of the “Top 100 Speakers to Watch in 2024”, by Motivator Music on LinkedIn, alongside such luminaries as Gary V, Tony Robbins and more! Speaking and sales training is all Alan does. He’s spoken at events in 14 countries, and now your association can afford to have him come! Here’s how…

“ We were able to combine a day-long Mastermind for a small group of our members, with an afternoon and evening presentation to our general membership the following day. This arrangement worked out perfectly, allowing our venues to enjoy in-depth study with Alan on a one-on-one basis, while also benefitting our larger vendor community the following day at a much-reduced cost.” – James Coats, Pres. Alabama Wedding and Event Professionals (ALWEP), Birmingham, AL

Here are some ways you can have Alan speak for your Association meeting… for FREE!–

Option 1: The Sponsored Mastermind! (Most Popular way to have Alan speak for your meeting, for Free!)

You'll arrange for Alan to lead a Private Mastermind Day for a small group of members/sponsors - and instead of just getting mentioned on your website and at the event, the members/sponsors get to spend a whole day with Alan, consulting, training and collaborating!

 

They're going to get so much more than a 30-45 minute speech. They'll have actionable steps they can use, right away. The value is so much higher, which reflects well on you, the board, education planner, and the association.

 

While you can include up to 10 businesses, the sweet spot for this is 4 to 6 businesses. Your association will arrange for and cover the venue and logistics details for the mastermind day. And with this option, Alan will also speak for your association meeting for free!

 

“ Alan's mastermind day for our venue and catering members paid his speaking fees, allowing us to have a superstar educator with no hit to our budget!" - Jordan Heller, SWEL - Sarasota Wedding and Event Leaders, Sarasota, FL

Option 2: Private Sales Training for one company

With this option, Alan will do a day of private sales training and consulting for one company in your area. They get to pick his brain for a whole day, discussing sales, marketing, websites... whatever they want. There's no limit on the number of employees for this training.

 

This company's investment sponsors Alan speaking for your association - in other words with this option, Alan will also speak for your association meeting for free!

Option 3: A deep dive with a VIP Master Class Ticket!

Another way groups like yours have made this work is to have a VIP Master Class for a more valuable intensive training for a larger group. In addition to speaking at your association meeting, Alan will conduct a Master Class Workshop for the VIP ticket holders, either before, or after the presentation meeting, in a smaller, more intimate workshop session.

 

While this is a higher-priced ticket than just coming to your regular meeting, these almost always sell out first! That helps you afford the event, and they get the best experience! There's no limit to how many VIP tickets you can sell, however, when they're limited in number, they're more desirable!

 

With this ticket, your association will pay for Alan to speak, and these VIP tickets will help offset the cost.

What about Alan's travel costs?

With each option your association will pay Alan's speaking fee and travel (air, hotel, ground transportation). With the Mastermind and Private Sales Training options, those should cover Alan's speaking fee and Alan can even bill those attendees directly, if that's easier for your association.

 

Some associations charge enough for the Mastermind or Training so that it also covers Alan's travel, making it totally free for your association!
