At Pam Perry PR, we’re not just about teaching speakers how to speak to the media and get booked; we’re about transforming how they show up — in every room, on every stage, and for every audience.
Recently, two incredible members of our SpeakSellShine cohort experienced the power of that transformation firsthand. Their journey culminated with an unforgettable evening at the National Press Club, meeting and dining with Emmy Award-winning journalist Kelly Wright. They took the stage on America’s Hope with Kelly Wright, sharing their stories with over a million viewers across the globe. This isn’t just press; it’s true visibility — the kind that puts our speakers on the map and elevates their brand to new heights.
What Makes SpeakSellShine Different: It’s About the “Who,” Not the “How”
When speakers enter our SpeakSellShine cohort, they quickly realize this program is more than just training sessions and techniques. Sure, we provide the “how” — the actionable strategies for refining their message, booking stages, and crafting their PR game plan. But the real power of SpeakSellShine is in the “who” — who you need to know, who you need to connect with, and who can amplify your voice.
It’s not about learning every single strategy yourself; it’s about connecting with the people who have already paved the way, those who can open doors and introduce you to influential networks. As our cohort members found out, a conversation over dinner with Kelly Wright is worth more than a hundred “how-to” guides.
Lessons from the SpeakSellShine Cohort: Building a Brand That Resonates
Throughout the program, our cohort members don’t just learn how to become speakers — they learn who they need to become to command the room, and more importantly, connect with the right audience. Here are just a few of the powerful insights our latest cohort walked away with:
- The Art of Authentic Storytelling: Every great speaker has a story, but it’s the way they tell it that leaves an impact. Our program teaches members to dig deep into their “why” and share their journey in a way that’s relatable and unforgettable. It’s about being real, not rehearsed.
- Mastering the Media Game: In SpeakSellShine, we demystify the world of media. Members learn the inside scoop on how to pitch, how to speak in soundbites, and how to position themselves as sought-after experts. This knowledge turned our cohort members’ moment on America’s Hope into a showstopping interview that resonated with viewers.
- Building Connections with Influence and Impact: The true secret sauce of SpeakSellShine isn’t about learning to shine — it’s about who you surround yourself with. Through our Ready Set Go Speak! community, members have access to a powerhouse network of industry insiders, mentors, and peers who are there to offer support, share opportunities, and open doors. Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about knowing the “how,” but knowing the “who.”
- Crafting an Unforgettable Brand: Our speakers don’t just step into the spotlight; they embody a brand that leaves a mark. Through detailed coaching and branding insights, we teach them how to package their personality, passions, and expertise into a message that’s unforgettable.
