SUMMARY:NSA SoCal: Michelle Villalobos\, CSP (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Michelle Villalobos\, CSP\,: Small Events\, Big Back End\nhttps://nsasocal.org/events/october-10-2025/ \nThe speaking industry is shifting in unprecedented ways\, with massive uncertainty plaguing traditional speaker models that rely on cushy keynote fees and corporate contracts. If you've been affected or want to avoid that issue\, consider adding back-end revenue streams that can supplement – and eventually even supplant – some or all of them! Michelle Villalobos\, CSP\, has optimized a simple framework to create a "Big Back End" using small events\, seminars\, and group coaching/mastermind programs (all without adding any cheesy or sleazy sales pitches at the end of your speeches). \nIn this session\, Michelle will share a model that can drive both big revenues and big impact\, as well as other game-changing information about business model growth she learned "the hard way.” Whether you ultimately choose to embark on this model or not\, this presentation will have you thinking about YOUR business model and recurring revenue streams in a whole new way. \nIn this program\, you’ll: \n\nDiscover a 3-part "Big Back End" business model for driving follow-up revenues from speaking\nBreakdown how this model plays out financially with real-life examples and scenarios \nLearn the "magic sentence" for driving sales from your speeches – without selling from the stage\nWrite a draft of your "Breakthrough Promise Statement" to attract prospects to your offerings from the stage (without being “sales-y”)\nSee case studies and examples of others who have successfully implemented this model across a variety of categories\, including wellness\, corporate\, leadership\, marketing\, sales training\, spiritual growth\, and personal development.\n\nMeet Michelle Villalobos\, CSP\nMichelle Villalobos\, MBA\, CSP is a business alignment strategist who for 17 years has worked with leaders to align what they DO with who they (really) ARE and awaken their inner superstar – so they can shine bright… without burning out. Michelle has delivered inspiring programs for blue-chip companies like American Express\, Bacardi\, Burger King\, Gibraltar Bank\, Lloyd’s of London\, and Audi.

SUMMARY:NSA Oregon: Tim Gard\, CSP\, CPAE (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Unforgettable: Beyond Being Memorable\nhttps://nsaoregon.org/events/october-13-2025/ \nMost speakers\, leaders\, and even business professionals get forgotten the moment their presentation ends. Early in my career\, I was astounded to learn how often clients couldn’t recall the name of last year’s keynote speaker — or even what they spoke about. That’s when I made a decision: being merely memorable wasn’t enough. I needed to become unforgettable. \nIn this laugh-out-loud yet insight-rich program\, Hall of Fame Speaker Tim Gard reveals how he transformed himself into the kind of speaker you can’t forget.. Through hilarious real-world stories\, practical strategies\, and his signature “implements of impact” (props and takeaways audiences cherish long after the event)\, Tim shows how anyone can rise above the noise\, leave a lasting mark\, and inspire action. \nBut this isn’t just about Tim’s techniques — it’s about helping you uncover your unique storytelling style\, and the props\, perspectives\, and presence that make you unforgettable. Along the way\, you’ll discover how the power of laughter can diffuse stress\, build instant connection\, and turn difficult moments into opportunities for influence and joy. \nYOU will learn how to: \n\nGo beyond being memorable to becoming truly unforgettable.\nHarness humor and perspective to uplift\, connect\, and inspire others.\nCreate lasting impact with stories and “implements of impact” that audiences take home and talk about.\nMake themselves the person clients\, colleagues\, and communities remember — and want to engage with you again and again.\n\nAbout Tim Gard\, CSP\, CPAE – Hall of Fame Speaker | Humor Strategist | Resilience Expert\nTim Gard is more than a keynote speaker\, he’s a game-changer. With over 25 years on stages worldwide and more than 3 million air miles traveled\, Tim is a Hall of Fame speaker who has mastered the art of using clean\, workplace-friendly humor to inspire resilience\, improve communication\, and transform workplace culture. \nHis message is simple but powerful: “We smile and laugh in the same language.” Tim’s programs do more than entertain\, they shift perspectives. Whether he’s helping burned-out teams rediscover joy or teaching leaders how to de-escalate tension with empathy and wit\, his blend of humor\, storytelling\, and real-world insight leaves a lasting impact. \nFrom his signature “bummer/woo-hoo” stress management technique to his now-legendary “Front of the Line” story\, Tim equips audiences with tools they can use immediately to build morale\, improve problem-solving\, and create connection—even in high-stress situations. \nFeatured on the main stage of MDRT (twice)\, TEDx\, and conferences across five continents\, Tim is a favorite among organizations that want to energize their people while providing real takeaways. He’s also a former fraud investigator\, which means he sees the world through a lens of perception\, pattern\, and people—and teaches others to do the same. \nTim doesn’t just deliver laughter\, he delivers transformation. One laugh at a time. For more information contact him at www.timgard.com \nDoors open at 6:00! Show up early to grab the best seat in the house and network with your speaker family!\nHybrid Event!
