Find the idea.
We dig through your expertise until we hit the one idea that's genuinely worth spreading. This is the half most people can't do alone, and it's where every engagement starts.
Plans and pricing
Your idea deserves a TEDx stage. We get you ready for it.
We've taken 150+ coaches, consultants and founders from "I think I have an idea" to standing on a TEDx stage. Talk written. Delivery coached. Applications handled. You bring the expertise, we build everything else.
150+ experts coached to selection. No stage-selling, no shortcuts. Selection is always on merit, which is exactly why preparation wins.
The gap
Why most experts never make it to the stage
You've built real expertise. Your clients get results. And yet the experts getting TEDx talks, keynotes and press are often no smarter than you. They just packaged their idea better.
Here's what actually stops most people:
-
They can't see their own idea.
You're too close to your expertise. The insight that would stop a room feels obvious to you, so you never lead with it.
-
The talk isn't the hard part. The idea is.
TEDx events don't pick resumes. They pick one sharp idea worth spreading. Most applications fail in the first 30 seconds because there isn't one.
-
Applying is a job in itself.
Finding the right events, timing the applications, writing them so an organizer says yes. Most busy experts start, stall, and quietly give up.
That's the gap we close.
The method
How it works
Write the talk.
We script it with you, in your voice. Structure, story, the line people quote afterwards. Then we rehearse it until it sounds like you on your best day, not a speech you memorized.
Get it in front of organizers.
Depending on your package, we either train you to run applications yourself or we handle the entire application process for you, matching your idea to events actively looking for your topic.
One thing we'll never promise: a guaranteed stage. Nobody legitimate can, and TED bans paid placement outright. What we have instead is a process that's put 150+ clients on stages, on merit.
The work
Talks we helped build
Every talk below started as a conversation with an expert who wasn't sure they had an idea worth a stage. Shared here with our clients' permission. Watch a few. This is the standard we build to.
150+ clients selected. These are some of the talks that came out of it.

Questions
Answered straight
-
No. We're an independent coaching company. TEDx events are run by licensed organizers who make all speaker decisions. We prepare you and, on higher tiers, handle your applications. The selection is always theirs.
-
No, and you should walk away from anyone who says yes. Paid placement is against TED's rules and talks connected to it get pulled. What we offer is a process with a track record: 150+ clients selected on merit.
-
On Done For You and Stage + Spotlight, we don't stop at one application. We keep matching you with events and applying until you land.
-
Coaches, consultants, founders, authors. People with real expertise who need help turning it into one idea worth spreading. We're selective, because our track record depends on taking people we believe will get selected.
-
Yes. The talks on this page are shared with those clients' permission. Beyond what's published here, we keep client details private as standard, it's part of how we work with people building their public profile.
-
Most clients go from start to stage in a few months, depending on event calendars. You'll get a realistic timeline on your fit call, not a promise we can't keep.
-
Because the idea and the talk are 80% of what gets someone selected, and that work takes serious hours from us. If your budget starts there, Stage Ready gets you the same talk quality as every tier above it.
The next step
One talk changes how people find you
Every week you're posting content that disappears in a day. One TEDx talk works for years. It's the line in your bio, the link in your pitch, the reason a client picks you over someone equally qualified.
The experts on those stages aren't smarter than you. They just started.
Book Your Fit Call10 minutes. No pressure. We'll tell you honestly whether there's a talk in you, because our track record depends on only taking people who'll get selected.
