2011 Winter UNconference 
UNconventional Ideas, UNscripted Sessions, UNbelievable Learning
Feb. 18-20, 2011
Atlanta, GA

Join us in Atlanta, Feb. 18-20, to learn strategies to accelerate your speaking business and hear world-renowned experts share practical strategies you can apply to expand your speaking business. This is NOT your typical conference. In fact, it's so far from typical we're calling it the Winter UNconference. We will leverage social media and cool technology to provide an experience that will blow your mind (and show you how to do it, too!). Network with speaker colleagues, focus on business skills to increase revenue, and walk away with at least 10 ideas to implement immediately--we promise!

Register through Jan. 26, 2011, to take advantage of early bird savings!
