2019 Fastlane Summit: Preliminary Speaker Call

[Scot]

Interested in speaking.

Topics depend on what sort of stuff I get myself into in the next few months.

Maybe... creative marketing strategy or finding opportunity by challenging industry norms.

Definite +1 to you speaking.

Can't believe how much time has flown by, so much so it's already TIME to put out FEELERS for potential speakers at the 2019 Fastlane Summit.

Occurs in Scottsdale Arizona at the Talking Stick Resort.

Happy to speak if you want an example of a "rich" person that is/has been on the sidewalk for my adult life and felt frustrated by it for years. Also as a physician I could speak on the fact that a high income, investing, saving and most traditional ways of thinking about money don't really work... even if you have an extremely high income. I would love to document my transition from the sidewalk to the fastlane, but that might require a brief talk this year, and then a results talk the following year.

i offer 'fastlane and kids'
....how to raise and teach kids in the fastlane
....crazy stories of things that come up
....bits of wisdom learned from the kids
....challenges and tips to overcome
....things we can do for and learn from the new generation

 

[JonnyC]

I could speak on strategies for building a distribution network for a physical product brand (400+ stores selling us right now) or the process of product development for specific niches and how to build authority in a space through content & influencer marketing.

Yes please yes please yes please!

My wife is due in a few days and baby can come at any time! I don't want to just shove her into the system and hope for the best. The idea of being able to run business and have my kids be a part of that gets me crazy excited.

 

[Vigilante]

I am planning on attending. Don't necessarily desire to speak to give some others a shot. I am a better critic than speaker.

I will talk with MJ about it. If I did speak, I would do it on

The OODA Loop
The OODA loop has become an important concept in litigation, business and military strategy. The phrase OODA loop refers to the decision cycle of observe, orient, decide, and act, developed by military strategist and USAF Colonel John Boyd. Boyd applied the concept to the combat operations process, often at the strategic level in military operations. It is now also often applied to understand commercial operations and learning processes. Use it to save your life, but you can also use it to outmaneuver your competitors.

or

I would also consider hosting a panel discussion on SELLING YOUR BUSINESS with a handful of hand selected panelists including @biophase, @GlobalWealth, @Kung Fu Steve and others. Panelists, there'd be one or two required panel discussions before the meetup to set some parameters. There'd also be a robust open mic Q&A at the end, but specific and quick questions for specific individuals (as last year one question took up almost all of the time).

It is highly likely that my commercial business will be sold and that my plan for the 40-50 acre lot split and development should be well on the way.

I realize that my business does not match up with the majority of the crowd. So, I'm offering without expectation.

Perhaps, but yours was one of the best talks. Lots of stories from the trenches. I'm down for hearing more.

I'm not even CLOSE to the level of success most attendees are, but would love to talk about productizing & scaling an online service business.

Main reason being that it was tough finding attendees who were in service-based businesses last year. But hopefully it'll be valuable to the attendees who are online freelancers / selling their time & having a hard time scaling.

Here's a rough outline, up for changes between now and then:
-Are Services Fastlane?
-What is a Productized Service?
-The math behind Productized Services, how it's superior to the agency model.
-How to create a Fastlane Service business by Productizing.
-Making the Transition from Freelancer to "Real Company."

 

[GlobalWealth]

If be happy to give a presentation.

For the past several months I've been working hard building a crypto mine (see progress thread in INSIDERS).

We are finally at the finish line so I could present about the process of building the mine.

Decisions on regulations, geographic choice, hardware choice, dealing with builders, project design, customs, reinvestment decisions, etc.

Alternatively, I could do a presentation on tax strategies for digital nomads.

@MJ DeMarco Sorry for turning this into a "questions" thread but I'm curious - INSIDERS get first go at buying tickets, yes? Is there a special presale link emailed, or?

If this is like last year, there is a post in the Inside only that has a link to buy tickets. After a set time, he posts it on the outside. There was not an email sent out last year. You pretty much had to keep you eye on the forum all day for a week.

Makes sense! Thanks

I'd really like to see & hear @Andy Black talk.
C'mon Andy, take a trip over the pond!

 

[Xeon]

I nominate @rpeck90 for branding topics, and for his extraordinary ability to read and analyse deep into the intangible and invisible aspects of branding and marketing.

 

[Andy Black]

Thanks @million$$$smile (and @Raoul Duke).

I’m not sure I’d be taking a trip abroad. We’ll see nearer the time.


I post loads of stories and learnings from the coalface in TFLF. Curious what folks would want me to present on:

Getting started fast and cheap with paid search so you can build a business case of whether to proceed or not?

Getting started fast and cheap by helping people in forums and Facebook groups? (What I semi-jokingly call my Engage Method to Ryan Levesque’s Ask Method.)

Lessons learned managing a team of 35 spending €120k/day, and in a tech startup building 120m keywords and ads?

How I’m trying to help people with content by keeping it a byproduct of the work I do, and not become a content creator per se? (This is a work in progress but people do ask how and why I create so much free content.)

Similar to the above, how I joined TFLF, dropped loads of articles, and had the ban hammer hovering over me. Hmmm... maybe I’m not the best to talk about that. Haha.

Other?


If I don’t make it maybe I can create some more material and drop it in here to help folks anyway?

I'd be honored to speak again if you were happy with last year.

Potential Topics

• Funding your Fastlane, How I raised $2M+ and how you can too!
• Breaking through your limiting beliefs about MONEY! Are you stopping yourself from being rich?
• Entrepreneur vs Solopreneur? I've succeeded at both...but which way really brings home the cash?

@Get Right , we'd be honored to hear you again. I vote for your potential funding topic.

[eliquid]

I still have a few topics in me, so I'll throw my hat in the ring again

 

[CaptainAmerica]

I'm planning on being there! Want to hear my talk on how to (re)structure your business for time freedom, or I could focus on one of the 6 parts:

Values-Based Strategy
Marketing to Passionate People
Corporate Culture & Outreach Tactics
Actionable Metrics
Integrated Tools
CYA Legalities

Gee, I guess I should join the INSIDERS if I really want a ticket, eh?

 

[MarkTheNatural]

As a new “INSIDERS” I’m excited for my first Summit since I’ve found this forum extremely valuable so far, not too mention interesting. I imagine hearing some of you speak will be even better. I haven’t added much value you to this forum, but I plan to. For now the only value exchange I can offer is a drink on me at the summit I look forward to meeting you guys!

(I also need more reasons to get out of butt -F*cking cold a$$ Michigan in February )

[James Fake]

Ugh... major action taking making me miss threads. But... me me me. I'd most definitely love to speak if given the opportunity!

Topic? Can do Crypto (long-term), marketing, SaaS, ecomm marketing, etc.. Who knows what I may stumble upon until then haha.

I'm so glad the Summit is "around the corner" already. I need a re-charge from the crazy highs that last Summit's atmosphere gave!

Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition

I would be happy to discuss the basics of how this is done (especially in industries people might overlook), examples of how to go about it, and share my personal experiences (I have acquired 3 businesses in the past year and a half all via different means of financing). This can be utilized by those just starting out or seasoned business owners.

Cheers
