For your committee
Booking Chirag Speaks
A brief to share with your board, committee, or co-chair: who Chirag is, what he brings to your audience, and how to take the next step.
Who he is
Chirag Speaks is The Brand Historian™. He has spent the last decade traveling the world studying the rise and fall of brands, tracing 500 years of history to answer one question: how do organizations and people survive times of change?
His message is simple: Good Brands Don’t Whisper. People have adapted to change before, and now there is more noise to compete with. His talks help audiences get clearer about the words they want to be known for and the stories people can remember and retell.
He is a Resident Brand Evangelist at Google and a featured brand expert across three seasons of HISTORY Channel’s The Mega Brands That Built America. He has spoken for Google, Shopify, HubSpot, Adobe’s Meet Magento, NAB Show, NTCA, the American Home Furnishings Alliance, and the Collegiate Entrepreneurs’ Organization. He has also presented to or worked with marketing teams at Money Group, Care.com, Intuit, Infiniti, UBS, GoDaddy, Royal Bank of Canada, Coursera, and Intact Insurance.
Your story will be written. If Chirag has any say, it will be by your pen.
The Pitch, ready for you
I’d like to bring in Chirag Speaks, The Brand Historian, for our event. He uses stories from 500 years of brand history to help audiences explain their value and tell stories people remember and retell. He is a featured brand expert on HISTORY Channel’s The Mega Brands That Built America and a Resident Brand Evangelist at Google. His preparation includes researching our industry and speaking with our attendees, and the talk comes with practical steps and post-talk resources. Here are his talks, stage sample, organizer feedback, and booking details: chiragspeaks.com/committee
What organizers say
“…with more than 800 attendees, Chirag’s talk was one of the highlights of the weekend… I highly recommend Chirag as a speaker for any organization…”
“Chirag gracefully hosted, ‘entertained’ may be more accurate, our international team conference with 400+ attendees and was a highlight of the experience. Everyone loved him, don’t hesitate to learn why!”
“Your presentation was insightful, truly engaging and provided valuable takeaways for our industry… everyone with whom I spoke directly praised your session and considered it the highlight of the meeting.”
Which talk
Good Brands Don’t Whisper (the flagship keynote) for conferences, sales and marketing audiences, and industry associations. The Fabric of Us for leadership summits and offsites. By My Pen for universities, emerging leaders, and development programs. Every talk is tailored to the room: he researches the industry’s own history, runs a focus group with 3 to 4 attendees, and, when the schedule allows, arrives early to gather local stories that end up on stage.
