Hello Reader, When a public speaker wants to charge professional rates, they need professional marketing collateral. In addition to a /speaking page on yourname.com, every professional speaker needs to have:
Since I help people tell better stories using digital media, creating speaker collateral is something I often do for my clients. Authors, coaches, and speakers are the kinds of entrepreneurs that make a living from their expertise. Sharing your expertise in the most media-friendly manner might not be in your wheelhouse. But it is in mine. Recently I made a full set of speaker collaterals for leadership keynote speaker Dave Rosenberg. If you’d like to see the quality of work that I do, you can click below to review his new:
Developing these materials was the culmination of six months of work together. In addition to producing these high-quality representations of Dave’s work, Stellar Platforms also:
“What you’ve done by creating this material,” Dave told me, “is enable me to believe in the value that I bring to the table. That’s the true gift.

You can also review my case studies to see if this is the quality of work you want supporting your personal platform. |

The first version of the AI Blueprint for Aotearoa was published in July 2024, by the NGO (Non-Governmental Organisation) the AI...
“The future belongs to those who can synthesize, not just analyze. The AI Generalist doesn’t compete with artificial intelligence—they choreograph it.” - Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind Hello Reader, As the only country in the OECD that had yet to publish an AI Strategy, New Zealand has finally published a 22-page document full of AI slop. (This critique was written by hand, and not by AI. Because when something matters, you shouldn’t deliver your ideas via AI slop.) The title...
“AI adoption is not just about the short-term gains. Organizations need to invest in the efficiency of the design, deployment, and integration of AI solutions to their operations that enable tracking of the impact.” - Fan Ho, ED/GM of Solutions and Services Group, Lenovo Asia Pacific Hello Reader, As an immigrant, I have an outsider's perspective on New Zealand. (I recently received my citizenship, making me the Newest Zealander!) During the first workshop of the AI Training Programme I teach...
