Speakers who got paid.

Every story here comes from a real Launchpad speaker, shared with their permission. We add new ones as coaching clients finish their first season.

Silas Grant booked his first commencement speech.

Strategist, public speaker and author

This wasn't about helping me learn how to speak better. It was about how to create the business I need to create to stay booked.
Before
An emerging speaker focused on personal brand work for training programs.
The work
Built his speaker reel in the Bootcamp and kept a public presence buyers could research.
The result
Marcus introduced him to a buyer. He sent the reel, and they booked him for a commencement speech.

James LeBlanc booked eight paid keynotes.

Founder, JMLspeaks.com

I really thought I was good. Then I gave Marcus my talk and he gave me the feedback. It took four or five rotations to refine it. It's a universe away from where I was before, when I was pretty much just winging it.
Before
Giving talks without a system, as he puts it, winging it.
The work
Refined his signature talk, the Freedom Formula, through four or five rounds of feedback, and made it bookable as a keynote and a workshop.
The result
Eight paid keynotes for workforce associations and HR audiences since joining the Launchpad in 2024.
