Powerful Main Stage Keynotes and
Transformative Deep Dives for Small Groups

Sima shares the power of personal brands to increase sales, attract and retain top talent, elevate market awareness, and catapult careers.

She’s been called many things–bold, entertaining, even unforgettable–but what she’s most-often called is “the kick in the pants I needed to take action.” Through personal story, humor and interactive exercises, Sima will capture and hold your audience’s attention and inspire them to take meaningful, measurable action. She is the perfect kick-off for your important event or the grand finale your attendees will remember.

Sima’s Most Requested Presentations

More than a talk on personal brands, Sima delivers a total event experience that drives audiences to action both for the success of their business and for themselves.

Retain Top Talent:

Honor Diversity & Inclusion

Invest in diverse talent. When you teach your employees how to manage their career and market themselves within your organization, everyone wins.

Key Takeaways:

  • You’re the CEO of your career. No one can manage it for you.
  • There’s always room for growth, even in “flat” organizations.
  • Go-getters never stop networking. Get connected inside your organization to get ahead.
  • You’re more than your job title. Be prepared to articulate your value.
  • Communication is everything. Speak up to stand out.

Generate Referrals & Drive Sales

Sales leaders who practice social selling generate more referrals and close more business than those who don’t. Period.

Key Takeaways:

  • First impressions often happen online, so take care of your digital footprint.
  • We are 2-3 degrees of separation from one another. Almost everyone knows someone who needs what you do.
  • People buy from people they know, like and trust. Your online profiles should convey likeability and trustworthiness.
  • You have to earn the right to connect and converse online.
  • Being a subject matter expert and staying top of mind is just a status update away.

Create Sticky Employer Brands to Win the War on Talent

It’s time for HR leaders to think like marketers and act like salespeople. Fill your talent funnel faster by upping your online game and turning your employees into talent-magnets.

Key Takeaways:

  • Employer Brands are more important than ever: Figure out yours.
  • Top talent wants to work with other top talent. Your employee’s digital footprint can attract staff or deter them.
  • Decent salaries and benefits are table stakes: Tell online job prospects what they need to hear quickly, before they bounce.
  • Leverage your current staff and 10x your talent pool.
  • We tell candidates to clean up their social media accounts. It’s time hiring companies did too.

Raise Brand Awareness with Content

Transform sales leaders and staff into brand ambassadors by enrolling them into your online content marketing team, then watch your Return on Marketing Investment grow.

Key Takeaways:

  • Content is still king. Whether or not your staff know how to share content is up to you.
  • If you want the sales team to help build the brand and attract opportunity, teach them social selling.
  • Sharing your marketing assets with staff inside your organization needn’t be hard or expensive. It just needs to happen.
  • Raw, unfiltered content works as well, if not better, than the shiny stuff your ad agency is trying to sell you.
  • Personal content marketing works for FINRA and SEC-regulated employees too.
