Jess Ponce III Knows How to Amplify Your Brand

by Cecilia Meis
March 16, 2023

When you think of brands that have transformed our culture, names like Warner Bros., Disney or Lucasfilm come to mind. And they each have someone in common: Jess Ponce III.

Ponce has worked with numerous celebrities, Fortune 500 company executives and other professionals. In each case, he trains individuals and companies to build better teams internally while increasing external reach, value and recognition. He’s even assisted TEDx speakers in strengthening their own communication skills while working with more than 1,500 television hosts, spokespeople, authors and experts. You might say Ponce is the influencer of influencers. The benefit of his work lies in teaching others how to break through in a noisy world.

An entrepreneur, author and keynote speaker, Ponce knows communications, personal branding and how to build, manage and amplify your brand and message in ways no one else can.

Ponce mentors influencers through coaching, training and workshops.

Ponce knows the talent business from end to end. He’s as knowledgeable and experienced in coaching as he is with guiding creative talent. Ad executives and public relations teams each benefit from his keynote speeches, personalized talent training and workshops.

You and your teams will learn to:

  • Own your role as a brand spokesperson
  • Equip your talent with the tools they need to stand out
  • Build the most memorable strategic branding initiatives
  • Pitch creative concepts and close deals

Self-promotion and corporate brand strategies matter to your future. But “fake it until you make it” usually comes across as inauthentic. With his A Factor® methodology, Ponce guides you and your team to be at your genuine best for greater recognition by teaching you his A Factor® formula: “Define your Audience, Create an Agenda, Call for Action, Maintain Authenticity.” 

Ponce knows the business of amplifying your brand.

Ponce doesn’t just tell you how to build your brand and increase visibility. He’s done it himself. As an entrepreneur, Ponce co-founded and owns Media 2X3, a U.S.-based creative agency. With Media 2X3, Ponce and his team “strengthen individual brands through negotiating sponsorships, producing media opportunities, and booking speaking engagements,” according to his website. Whether online, on-air or onstage, Media 2X3 trains talent in navigating the difficult terrain all media personalities face.

Ponce also co-develops training programs for The Awesome Group, a personal and professional development firm based in Taiwan. Similarly, Ponce customizes programs for TWP Hong Kong, a “provider of high-impact experiential learning and consulting services to businesses and government agencies worldwide,” according to his website. He also puts his vast experience to work producing programming for top networks including ABC, Fox, E! Entertainment and many others.

Check out Ponce’s books to get started.

If you consider booking Ponce as your next keynote speaker or media coach, consider familiarizing yourself and your team with some of his outstanding work. Ponce provides many of his lessons in personal brand development in his book, Everyday Celebrity: A Personal Branding Guide from a Hollywood Media Coach. Thoroughly enjoyable and informative, Ponce guides the reader through best methods in creating opportunities, growing a professional network and becoming profitable. For a look at developing your skills as a public speaker, see A.W.E.S.O.M.E.: 7 Keys to Unlock the Speaker Within, co-authored with Emily Liu.

You need a keynote speaker with impact.

With such a winning background in personal branding and coaching trending celebrity speakers and influencers, it’s no surprise that Ponce has become a top speaker himself. He delivers keynote addresses and breakout programs both in-person and virtually. In each case, he provides custom solutions to amplify your brand online, in person, on camera and even in corporate presentations and meetings. Speaking topics include:

  • “The A Factor: The Art of Authentic Self-Promotion”
  • “Everyday Celebrity: Personal Branding Secrets from a Hollywood Media Coach”
  • “A.W.E.S.O.M.E.: Unlock Your Speaking Potential Within”

Ponce delivers his keynote addresses with all the skill you’d expect from a strategist who influences the influencers. Dynamic and engaging, he captivates audiences and always leaves them empowered with better tools for communications, networking and brand amplification.

Speaker Spotlight: Anthony O’Neal and the Power of Financial Education

by Cecilia Meis
November 25, 2022

Living debt-free and financially secure requires fiscal know-how and economic acumen. But it takes self-awareness and a positive mindset, too. Just ask No. 1 bestselling author of Debt-Free Degree Anthony O’Neal.

From his popular podcast The Table with Anthony ONeal to keynote speaking engagements, O’Neal has helped millions of individuals maximize their assets, pay off their debts and save for the retirement they deserve. Yet, his holistic approach to finding financial freedom goes beyond mere accounting and investment. His message embodies an overall grace, mindfulness and spirituality that reaches his audiences at their core. In this process, his followers develop the skills needed to live a purposeful and financially secure life.

When you book O’Neal for your event, you get a financial speaker your colleagues will never forget. That’s because he reaches people in ways few other keynote speakers can. Here’s how.

O’Neal knows finances.

O’Neal has proven his expertise in all things financial. From paying off credit card debt and student loan obligations to assisting entrepreneurs in maximizing their revenue, there is no doubt about his talents. But his number one self-stated mission is assisting others in living a secure, debt-free life. This provides two key benefits for your company:

1. Financially stable associates make stronger, more resilient employees.

Financial security creates stronger, more attentive and resilient employees. They are happier and more focused. Those facing debt, on the other hand, are more distracted. They may need to take second and even third jobs that leave them worn out and less mindful. Even something as basic as calls from collectors might leave them less focused.

Employees facing financial hardships may even come to resent their work. They may apply for new roles or seek yet-unearned raises. But even if you paid them more, it would not necessarily help. Without a change in behavior, they’ll likely keep making the same mistakes that led them into debt in the first place.

O’Neal guides your teams and associates toward financial security using proven methods. He is an expert in areas including student loan debt, retirement savings, personal investment and budgeting. With his motivational presentations, he helps your employees to lead happier, more secure lives.

2. His lessons apply to your corporate finances, too.

As with an individual, a company burdened with unmanageable debt can become distracted. It can lose sight of its core mission and values and take unnecessary risks. Even during a revenue growth period, unmanageable debt can make a company less attractive to investors, too. O’Neal’s best strategies for personal financial freedom have a way of leaving their mark on the entire corporate culture, including your CFO and other executive leadership.

While O’Neal speaks at a personal level, his lessons are equally applicable to institutional finances. His “Entrepreneur’s Blueprint” online course, for example, speaks to business needs and the value of personal branding. 

Audiences know—and love—O’Neal.

“I’m so grateful that God has placed this mission in my heart to help others reach their goal of mental, spiritual and financial freedom.”

—Anthony O’Neal

O’Neal reaches his vast audiences by keeping his virtual and in-person presentations real, relevant and relatable. His common sense approach to communications connects to audiences, yes, but combined with his uplifting spiritualism and focus on the individual, he reaches people at an unforgettable level. In assisting people to take control of their futures, he transforms lives.

Plus, as a rapidly emerging celebrity speaker, O’Neal brings excitement to your conference or corporate event. People know him from top-selling books such as Debt Free Degree and Destroy Your Student Loan Debt. They also know him for his appearances on Good Morning America, CNN, Essence, Rachael Ray and other popular media outlets.

But while his global reputation precedes him, O’Neal remains down-to-earth. His personable style builds trust with your staff. As O’Neal says, “You deserve a life of abundance, so let’s take the first step together.” This welcoming demeanor, along with his warm, approachable presentation style, has ensured his success as one of the most in-demand financial speakers today. They make him a coach, a friend and a guide in your journey to personal fulfillment.

Ready to book O’Neal?

The SUCCESS Speakers Bureau has made it easier than ever to book O’Neal for your next corporate event.

In fact, our select catalog of motivational speakers includes top names in sales, real estate and finance such as Sharon Lechter, Grant Cardone, Tom Corley and others.

Speaker Spotlight: Natasha Graziano Builds Growth Mindsets

by Cecilia Meis
November 4, 2022

Top female motivational speaker and mindset coach Natasha Graziano improves companies and lives. Drawing from neuroscience and ancient wisdom, the bestselling Be it Before You Become It author propels millions in the corporate world and beyond to the top by teaching them how to tap into the powers within. In the process, she helps millions to achieve their goals and takes companies to new heights.

But what exactly sets her apart from other major influencers and mindset speakers? And why should you book Graziano as your next in-person or virtual keynote speaker?

Graziano delivers keynotes that resonate across audiences.

Graziano wasn’t preordained to become Forbes Magazine’s No. 1 motivational speaker under 40. She earned it. Graziano was a broke single mom before transforming her life and becoming a top celebrity public speaker. At one time, in fact, she even faced homelessness. Graziano builds upon this life-changing experience in her keynote addresses so that even star-dazzled audiences relate to her instantly. They understand that her success—and theirs—requires some work.

But her relatability goes beyond her personal journey. Graziano’s proven methods to build a stronger, happier lifestyle appeals to both the scientific and spiritual among us. Her M.B.S. Method™ (meditational behavioral synchronicity) is rooted in ancient wisdom as well as modern neuroscience, and the result is truly transformational. Its practice leads to the removal of self-defeating thoughts, the ability to attract more positive people and stronger spiritual alignment.

Graziano leads as a digital branding expert.

Though a young influencer and speaker, Graziano nonetheless brings vast experience to enhance your digital brand story and marketing game. At present, Graziano:

  • Hosts the Law of Attraction podcast with over 100 million views
  • Has more than 15 million followers across social media platforms
  • Is a proven expert on gaining followers on Instagram and beyond

That is, Graziano’s expertise in digital communications and branding is more than a speaking topic. She has developed her personal brand using proven methods through teachable wisdom and hacks that will get the most from your digital communications efforts.

While Graziano’s in-person celebrity appearances deliver an unrivaled warmth and humanity, she excels at delivering virtual keynote presentations, too. Her unique ability to reach across the miles with her podcast led her to be featured in Wealth Insider, New York Weekly, Economic Journal and other popular outlets.

Graziano boosts top brands.

Professionalism matters. You need a motivational speaker who delivers on time, every time. That’s where Graziano comes in. 

Trusted by top brands throughout industries and across continents, her notable clients include names like Poosh, Vogue, Forbes, Marie Claire, Influencive, Elle, Mindvalley, Business Insider and many others. Other top thought leaders have taken note of her abilities as well, including Grant Cardone and Daymond John.

Her speaking topics clearly address your company growth goals.

You want a top woman speaker. But you also need someone whose message aligns with your corporate goals. As a trendsetting thought leader and successful entrepreneur herself, Graziano has designed her speaking programs to meet the needs of your growth goals. Let’s look at her three most in-demand keynote addresses:

Accelerate your Authority Online and Have More Impact, Influence and Income

Online authority builds lasting revenue for traditional business models. But for digitally based companies, digital clout is critical. In this presentation, Graziano explores how to:

  • “Tell your irresistible story.”
  • “Become a recognized expert.”
  • “Grow your Instagram following.”
  • And more!

The Best Motivational Speakers Throughout History

The Best Motivational Speakers Throughout History

by Cecilia Meis
October 28, 2022

History guides us, leading us in the footsteps of our predecessors as we explore new worlds and ideas. And the same holds true of our most gifted motivational speakers. From Africa to Asia, Europe and the Americas, storytellers have guided humanity through spoken allegories and parables. Ancient Athenian figures such as Pericles and Socrates further honed and formalized the craft, and over time, modern public speaking has evolved alongside humanity.

At their best, history’s motivational speakers inspire us to this day with messages of hope, personal growth, humanitarian progress and social justice. So who are some of history’s top motivational speakers—those who shaped not only the art of public speaking, but the world?

Jesus Christ

Motivational sermons can influence both the audience and the very fabric of a society. And few motivational sermons are better known than Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. This speech did more than gather an audience—it made an impact felt throughout history. It may be one of the most widely cited public addresses, fueling causes across the globe. Though little is known of Jesus’ speaking style, his messages influence philanthropists, activists and motivational speakers such as Trent Shelton, Priscilla Shirer and Tony Robbins to this day.

The Prophet Muhammad

Like Jesus Christ, the Prophet Muhammad was born of humble origins. As with the great speakers of ancient Greece, he did not rely on written text or even notes to deliver his message. But he did—by divine inspiration or human understanding—use both logic (logos) and empathy and emotion (pathos) in his speeches, crafting a message of peace that went beyond lessons and syllogisms. He painted broad landscapes with words, appealing to senses of sound, sight and smell. In this way, Muhammad took people out of their preconceptions and placed them in a unique moment where they could embrace new ideas. To this day, modern motivational speakers such as Alaa Murabit similarly create seemingly tangible landscapes with words to better engage audiences.

Susan B. Anthony

Social reformer and suffragette activist Susan B. Anthony learned how to engage and motivate people at a young age. It was then, at only 16, that she gathered petitions to support the abolitionist movement in the United States. This early experience in communicating with people one-on-one fueled her activism for women’s suffrage and temperance. It also honed her skills in engaging with people at a personal level, even when those audiences became quite large and sometimes hostile. That commitment to social justice led her to spearhead more localized labor and justice movements prior to becoming a national figure. Her commitment to logic as a rhetorical device served her reform movements well, allowing her to change billions of lives. And it all began with simple petition-gathering.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Following Susan B. Anthony into the 20th Century, Martin Luther King is the first motivational speaker on this list to have video of his delivery style. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Dwight David Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy—each unique in their delivery—were clearly influential, too. But King stands out. An outsider who was not seen as an equal among many, King faced a constant uphill battle. Yet the man who motivated tens of millions of people in this country continues to motivate oppressed peoples globally today. He interwove complex elements of logic based in faith and positive passion with implied aversion to evil, carefully metered in the way only a Southern minister quite can. His speaking style may be the most studied in the world, but engage with his writing, also, for even deeper insight.

Nelson Mandela

Some motivational speakers are great orators. But few speakers come to the table with a clear willingness to stand or die for what they believe in. Nelson Mandela lived both. Prior to a trial in 1964, he stated that his conviction for harmony and equal opportunity “is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.” That message spread across continents. And it spread across decades, too. Like King and others, he communicated that common struggles unite us all. While keeping one person or group “down” may seem advantageous for some in the short-term, it decreases overall harmony in the long-term. Any sense of negativity rarely entered his addresses, and a positive outlook enriched his speaking style. Like Mahatma Gandhi, he proved that his faith in humanity was of greater importance than anything. 

Mr. Rogers

Transitioning from the likes of Muhammad, Christ, Mandela or King to Fred Rogers isn’t the hard part. The hard part is that I think it would embarrass him. Yet, he belongs here. His undeniable influence as a public speaker is truly beyond measure. Consider that you have likely spent more time listening to Mr. Rogers speak to you—seemingly directly to you—than anyone else here. Were you engaged? Did he change your perception? Do you think that change improved your life or made a better person of you? Are you kinder or in any way more “together” for that influence? Are you a better person because of him? That’s what a motivational speaker does. Mr. Rogers influenced generations of children with a message of empathy and emotional intelligence through a simple, warm example and a calm, clear, gentle style of expression.

Today’s top motivational speakers

Motivational speakers such as Bob Proctor, Jim Rohn and Dr. Deepak Chopra further paved the way in building personal and societal enrichment through public speaking. Less than a century later, the internet provides us, our teams and our organizations even greater access to thought leaders. And they have greater access to us, too, through virtual speaking engagements and online motivational classes.

Book a Speaker for Your Holiday Event

Book a Speaker for Your Holiday Event

by Cecilia Meis
October 14, 2022

The holiday season often includes events, seminars and retreats for your corporate teams. Alongside the excitement of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and other holiday celebrations, the coming new year reminds us to leave old habits behind and mindfully embrace healthier lifestyles. It’s no surprise that this is the perfect time of year to book a motivational speaker.

But whether hiring a speaker for a virtual appearance or booking them for a live presentation, you’ll want someone with a message that hits the right tone for both your company and for the season. Let’s explore some ideal speaker categories from the Success Speakers Bureau that will motivate your teams and bring out their best over the coming year.

Personal development

Along with good cheer, the holidays can bring a lot of stress. After all, many people are trying to juggle both work and family planning, and others are coping with sadness or loneliness. Even those of us who love the holidays will admit they can be overwhelming!

Personal development speakers empower your employees with the confidence that comes with resilience. TEDx speaker alum Anne Grady quite literally wrote the book on resilience—several, in fact, including Mind Over Moment and Strong Enough. Motivational speaker Dan Thurmon, on the other hand, entertainingly teaches employees the path to success through facing and coping with their fears. And youthful influencer and best-selling author Jay Shetty, always a hit with the crowd, endows your corporate audiences with a message of inner peace that is so welcome during the holidays.

Health and wellness

New Year’s resolutions usually involve working on our health and well-being. Whether that means eating more nutritious foods, achieving greater wellness through exercise or practicing meditation for improved mindfulness, the new year provides an opportunity for growth. But we also know that our resolutions seldom remain fulfilled. Much of that has to do with the fact that we simply don’t have the skills or best practices for sustained health and wellness.

With employee wellness programs growing in popularity, the holidays provide the perfect opportunity to jumpstart your workplace health initiatives. Motivational speaker Mo Brossette, for instance, knows the power of nutrition and movement in helping us keep focused and accomplishing our dreams. Likewise, Shawn Stevenson improves your corporate culture with an inspiring message of the power found in fitness and nutrition. And Karen M. Allen provides the tools needed to feel and live better through a more positive mindset. Trusted by Google, The Women’s Foodservice Forum and many others, Allen’s talks are always personal, captivating and informative.

Personal finance

Holiday cheer usually comes at a (literal) cost. Gifts, travel and meal expenses not only affect your employees’ personal lives, they can impact employee performance. Many of your employees may lack proper money management skills, and no time brings that home quite like the holidays.

Better personal finance skills provide a holiday gift for your employees that lasts year-round. Not only that—by preventing employees from being distracted or depressed by debt, it also helps corporate culture, unity and productivity. Financial expert and professional speaker Anthony O’Neal has helped more than a quarter million readers with his book Debt Free Degree, plus another 15 million with his The Table with Anthony ONeal podcast. Similarly, financial literacy expert and best-selling author Sharon Lechter brings her exciting and personally empowering message of better money management to every event. And guest financial speaker Tom Corley never misses with his insights on the habits that separate the wealthy from those struggling financially.

Celebrity speakers

When considering a guest speaker for your corporate holiday event, you might also consider booking a celebrity speaker. They bring a sense of excitement to your event that is ideal as you close out the year. It’s a wonderful gift to your employees to keep the mood up. Plus, their range of expertise and topics makes it simple to find the perfect speaker to suit your corporate messaging goals.

Mindset coach and social media influencer Natasha Graziano always entertains and lights up a crowd with her transformational message of personal growth. Likewise, Shark Tank host, author and entrepreneur Daymond John brings headliner star power to your event, as well as a motivational message of self-empowerment and success. Meanwhile, crowd-pleaser and memory champion Ron White shares the secrets of a better memory with an exciting presentation honed from appearances on Good Morning America, Superhuman on Fox and, of course, countless speaking engagements. 

Booking your speaker for the holidays

We’ve barely begun to scratch the surface of the top-name speakers available to book through the Success Speakers Bureau for your company holiday event. With more than a century of experience building relationships with leading coaches, trainers and entrepreneurs, SUCCESS has leveraged our contacts to bring you a growing list of the top speakers in the world.

Best of all, booking your next speaker during the holidays—or at any time—has never been easier. We handle the logistics for both live and virtual guest appearances so you don’t have to. Simply drop us a note with your speaking engagement needs or questions, or contact us via email. With just that step, you’ll be well on your way to making your organization’s event as fun and memorable as you dreamed!

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Celebrity Speaker?

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Celebrity Speaker?

by Cecilia Meis
September 1, 2022

Celebrity speakers include the most in-demand keynote speakers available for hire, motivational speakers known for marketing, investing, personal branding, real estate and so much more. We recognize them from their trending social media presence, best-selling books, guest appearances on popular networks, and even their podcasts and TEDx talks. Whether hiring for an in-person address or a virtual keynote speaker, celebrity speakers deliver the goods. So, how much does it cost to hire a celebrity speaker?

Celebrity speaker fees depend on a range of factors.

Celebrity speakers bring the star power and tested delivery style needed to make your event a success. That professionalism and name recognition may come at a higher price than other speakers. A relative newcomer not yet of celebrity status may price at only $1500 to $5000 for your event. To hire a trending celebrity speaker can mean a fee of $200 thousand or more. But a median fee range may be only $50-$60 thousand. Depending on the timing of your event, your needs, and their personal interests and goals, the fee for a celebrity speaker can vary widely.

Is a star speaker worth the price?

A celebrity speaker grabs attention at multiple levels and across industries. A top-tier star speaker can get the notice of:

  • Your employees
  • Local media
  • Bloggers
  • Investors
  • Local businesses and industry allies
  • Local or regional politicians

Ultimately, the choice of whether to book a celebrity speaker will depend on your budget and goals. But looking long term, it is wise to book someone who will make your event more memorable. Hiring a celebrity speaker will add social virality to your event that goes beyond immediate goals and even expectations.

Can I save money booking a celebrity speaker remotely?

Some of the top celebrity speakers are available for hire virtually. That is, they can speak for your event through remote, digital means. Hiring a speaker virtually has both benefits and drawbacks.

On the downside, you may feel some of the benefits mentioned above to a lesser degree. While we have become accustomed to remote meetings, in-person visits receive more attention—especially for celebrity or brand names.

On the plus side, a virtual address can save on the speaker fees. There are multiple things you can do with those savings. For instance, if there is a particular speaker you want who is out of your price range, you may find you can afford them virtually. Cost-reduction may be applied toward another speaker or toward events or services you otherwise would need to trim. And in some cases, depending on the size of your facility, many would have been watching the presentation from a screen—large or small—already anyway. Some may even be watching the event remotely! Just be sure to plan ahead with your team for logistics such as broadcast services across devices and live feedback such as Q&A sessions in real-time.

Book your next celebrity speaker.

Among the options you find, we suggest that you look at the Success Speakers Bureau before hiring your next celebrity speaker. From trending influencers such as Natasha Graziano and Mally Roncal to television stars like Daymond John and author Grant Cardone, the Success Speakers Bureau brings you some of the hottest celebrity speakers to make your corporate event stand out.

Just pick your perfect speaker, and we can handle the booking and logistics from there. It’s almost as simple as having a celebrity delivered to your door. Best of all, you’ll have the confidence of knowing that Success is backed by more than a century of legacy, networking and a reputation of forward-thinking business progress.

Going far beyond some trick, White’s technique for a better memory has made him valuable as a one-on-one coach and celebrity keynote speaker. He shares both the tools and strategies needed for a more acute memory that assists leaders and team members in every area of business.

Waldo Waldman

Celebrity speaker Waldo Waldman is both the best-selling author of Never Fly Solo and an inductee in the Professional Speakers Hall of Fame.
