THE BENEFITS

Earn trust (with your audience + ours), gain fresh exposure, share your heart, story & expertise, and get the opportunity to grow your audience exponentially…

Include a free opt-in resource that we’ll help you promote, and/or point viewers to your preferred social channel.



YOU’RE A GOOD FIT FOR THIS WELL-CURATED SPEAKER LINEUP IF:

  • You’re an experienced founder, entrepreneur, or speaker who’s been in business for at least 3+ years and has an online presence, expertise to teach, or personal story that aligns with this event & focus.

  • Your brand aligns with our messaging & mission of encouraging women to lean into their unique gifts & talents, chasing meaningful success, and infusing a balance of purpose, profit, flexibility and joy into their businesses.

  • Your brand might be less of a great fit if you teach / encourage: all-hustle, instant-promises, a spammy/salesy approach, a focus on manifesting, or teaching AI in a way that devalues human originality & creativity vs it being a practical, assisting tool. If you’re not sure, but feel drawn to this opportunity, APPLY! We believe your story matters.

  • You have an audience to help share this exciting event with (we’re all better together!). That could be an active email list with 1000+ subscribers or more — OR — your email list is still budding, but your brand and inclusion are a great match for this event, and you’re excited to be a part of it — OR — you have a highly active social audience that engages with you.

YOUR co-marketing commitment:

  • OUR PART: We will be happily marketing this event to our own audience of thousands and are excited to promote our speakers! And… we will be making the links to your free opt-ins easy to access, because we want you to be rewarded with exposure.

  • But we all know it takes a committed, fun-loving collective group to create a growth-fueled experience for everyone. We intend to create a beautiful, well-curated experience that you can be proud to share with your audience.

  • YOUR PROMOTIONAL COMMITMENT:

  • If accepted, you will be committing to a minimum of TWO promotions — one full email to your list, and one PS / email mention. (We’ll of course make it super easy and get you promotional materials and sample wording).

  • Promoting on social is not required, but we’ll make it EASY & FUN to optionally share on social as well if you’d like. Email promo is preferred, but if you have a more active social following but not an active email list, you may be able to swap emails out for 2 social posts. Please note this in the application.


If you don’t know me yet, I’m Shannon here at Feather Blue Studios…

Entrepreneur of 20+ years. Host of multiple giveaways, bundles, and collaborative events.

Brand & Marketing Strategist for big-hearted women in business.

I HAVE MY OWN PIVOT STORY (or two). I made what felt like a massive TRANSITION about 10 years ago…

…when I transitioned from running a full service photography studio (that I had run locally for 10 years) to follow my love of mission-minded brand & marketing for other business owners.

I know the ups, downs, emotions, challenges, identity-crisis, self-doubt, decision-overwhelm, and joy that come with making a pivot or shift in business, big or small.

I hope through this Summit we can collectively be a voice of encouragement, authenticity, and direction for women ON THE BRINK OF THEIR OWN MEANINGFUL pivot.

If you’re new here…

I live in Minnesota with my hubby and 3 kids, love chai tea, dark chocolate, being by water (hello beach day!), shopping give-back boutiques, being fueled by purpose & grace, and all things blue.

I so genuinely care about being a light in the world through my business, helping us make a ripple effect of world impact together, and calling women UP into more (without the hustle or overwhelm), because their gifts, talents, and businesses matter in this world!

FAQ’s:

Q: Can I re-use an audio session I have used for another event or training?

A: If the audio you have is highly applicable to this event and audience AND you have the rights to re-use it (read any previous speaker agreements), then yes, we welcome it for submissions. In most cases, recording a fresh version of your topic for this specific audience will be ideal, but sometimes you already have something that’s perfect!


Q: What types of topics are you looking for?

A: TOPIC THEMES — We’re looking for topics that fit into one (or possibly overlap) of these themes:

  • Pivot stories: Your own pivot stories (including the ups, downs, and what you’d do differently)

  • Overcoming messages: emotions / mindset / confidence / overcoming fear during seasons of change (like pivoting)

  • Practical tools & strategies: How to prepare, build, take action, re-brand, set up your business for success, etc (including specific business-growth or marketing things you might teach)

Some title examples might include:

  • My Pivot Story: From XXX to XXX

  • 3 Things I Wouldn’t Do Again When Pivoting

  • 1 Mindset Switch To Eliminate the Stress of Pivoting

  • From XXX (aka Doubting) to XXXX (Confident):

  • How I (Achieved Something Here) from my XXX Experience

  • How to (do something) in order to XXX or avoid XXX

  • NOTE: Titles are important and should be engaging, outcome, or curiosity-based! The more enticing your title is, the more likely someone is to listen (and thus to download your resource & join your email list). We will happily help make title suggestions once we have final speakers lined up.

  • Q: Will there be sponsorship opportunities?

    A: Yes, these will be available on the official intake form, coming soon once you’re accepted. If you have questions or want to make sure you get the sponsorship info asap, please email us at hello@featherbluestudios.com
