Here's what Monday looks like.

Setup is five fields. What you talk about, the fee you won't go under, how far you'll travel. Ninety seconds, once.

After that the reading happens without you. By six each Monday we've been through the week's open calls, about 1,400 of them, and the handful that fit are waiting when you wake up.

This is the actual app. Not a mockup.

Who this is for

Built for people whose
business walks in from a stage.

Some of our members are working speakers who live on fees. Most are coaches, consultants, authors and founders who use a Signature Talk the way other people use ads: twenty minutes in front of the right room, and the calendar fills itself.

StageScouter works for both, because it doesn't just ask what you speak about. It asks what a stage is worth to you.

Two ways a stage pays

Fees are one currency.
Clients are the other.

Paid stages
Talks that pay in fees

Conference and association stages with real budgets.

Keynotes, breakouts and workshop slots that pay. We show the fee, who they booked in past years, and the person who signs the contract.

  • Filter by your fee floor
  • Past speaker history before you pitch
  • Verified decision-maker contact
  • Seated delegates at an industry forum
    Rooms full of buyers
    Talks that pay in clients

    Your Signature Talk, in front of the people you serve.

    A free lunch-and-learn for forty of your ideal clients can out-earn a $5,000 keynote. Chapters, associations and corporate rooms, filtered by who is actually sitting in them.

  • Filter by audience, not just fee
  • Local chapters and lunch-and-learns included
  • Track a stage by leads won, not only dollars
  • You tell us which currency each stage should earn. The scoring listens, and the six that arrive on Monday reflect it.

    Match scoring

    You see why it fits,
    and why it might not.

    Every stage is scored against your topics, your fee floor or your lead goals, your travel radius, and the kind of room you do well in. The score is itemised, and it always shows at least one reason against. A tool that only ever agrees with you is a tool you stop trusting by October.

    Draft pitch to the Program ChairEditable
    SubjectSpeaker proposal, leadership under pressure

    Dear Program Chair,

    I noticed your call for breakout sessions closes on the 14th, and that last year's leadership track drew from consulting rather than clinical backgrounds.

    I run a session on how leaders behave in the ninety seconds after bad news, built from work with healthcare operations teams in Ohio and Illinois…

    Pitch drafting

    A first draft in your voice,
    addressed to a real person.

    Every pitch is built from the listing itself: the deadline, the track, who they booked last year, and your topics. You edit it and send it yourself, from your own address.

    • Written against the actual listing, not a template
    • Sent by you, from your inbox, never automated
    • Learns your phrasing from the pitches you edit
    Pipeline & deadlines

    Nothing closes while
    you weren't looking.

    Saved opportunities move through a simple pipeline with the closing date attached. You get one reminder at seven days and one at forty-eight hours. That's the entire notification system.

    • Watchlist, pitched, replied, booked
    • Deadline reminders at 7 days and 48 hours
    • Export to CSV or your own CRM

    Plainly

    What this isn't.

    Several things in this category do the opposite. Better you know now than after you've paid.

    We don't send mail in your name

    Automated outreach at volume gets you filed as spam by the exact planners you're trying to reach. We draft. You send.

    We don't take a share of your fee

    No commission and no bureau split. What you negotiate is what you keep.

    We don't run a funnel at you

    No countdown, no free training, no income screenshots. There's a price below and a button beside it.

    We won't promise you'll be booked

    We find the rooms and name the decision-maker. The talk remains yours to give and the pitch yours to win.

    Questions

    Before you start.

    Why only six?

    Because the other 1,406 would have wasted your time. Volume is the problem here, and more of it is not a feature.

    Do you send emails for me?

    No. Automated outreach at volume gets you filed as spam by the exact planners you want. We draft, you send, from your own address.

    Do you take a percentage of what I'm paid?

    Never. No commission, no bureau split. What you negotiate is what you keep.

    What if six aren't right for me this week?

    Some weeks are thin. Association season runs September to November and volume triples. When a week is light we would rather send you four good ones than pad the list.

    Can I cancel?

    Any time, from Settings, without emailing anyone. The first week is free and doesn't ask for a card.

    The rooms exist.
    They're just badly listed.

    Doors open in September. Join now and your first six will be waiting.
