What Coaching for Conferences Solutions Are Best For You?
Whether your conference has hundreds of speakers or only a few, I partner with you to teach them how to go beyond presentations to brilliant resultations. They WILL engage your attendees, provide meaningful takeaways, and drive event satisfaction. My conference solutions scale to your needs, event size, and budget.
Pre-Conference Solutions
Exceptional conference content starts months before the actual event. My pre-conference solutions boost presenter engagement, depth of preparation, and presenter confidence. Through a combination of training webinars and virtual one-on-one coaching, your presenters will have the support, knowledge, and tools they need to design and deliver influential presentations.
Training Webinars
Choose from webinars on design and delivery, audience engagement, panel discussions, tech talks, hybrid/virtual presenting, and more. Webinars range from 20 to 45 minutes and can be offered live, simulive, or on-demand.
Visual Design Elements
Ensure presentations are well-structured and visually appealing by providing your presenters with visual design support. From review and feedback to complete slide creation, I elevate the visual elements of your presenters’ presentations.
1-On-1 Coaching
Take presenter coaching and support to the next level by offering 1-on-1 coaching sessions. I personalize each session to the presenter's presenting style, experience, and content.
On-Site Conference Solutions
Preparation is necessary, but execution is essential!
Extend presenter coaching into the conference with On-Site Conference Solutions.

Mainstage Support
Guarantee your conference captivates and informs right from the start. I collaborate with keynotes to optimize their stage presence and delivery style, working seamlessly with the production team to overcome any issues or challenges.
Virtual/Hybrid Conference Solutions
Engaging remote and in-person audiences in virtual and hybrid conferences can be challenging for presenters. Not everyone can do so seamlessly. Empower your presenters with the skills and resources to actively engage both audiences.

Client Testimonials
Hear what our incredible clients have to say!
“Patti Schutte is one of the best presentation coaches I’ve ever met. Over the years, she has helped me build compelling narratives for many engagements. We’ve worked together on internal and external corporate presentations and product launch messaging. She has helped me engage people while serving on industry panels. We’ve done webinars and training and most recently, she has helped me build my brand and messaging and corporate slide template as a business owner. Patti is top notch in her field and I highly recommend her services to everyone in need of content layout, presenting and speaking help. Oh wait, did I mention, she ROCKS!”
Kelly Eisenhardt
“When looking for expert professionals to present at our conference, we promote our partnership with Be Brilliant as the real reason you should send in a submission. Accepted speakers have the opportunity to work with Patti and her team from start to finish on their presentations and speaking style. Be Brilliant is as familiar with the jitters as with the highly-produced speeches of the gazillion-dollar earners. I have seen Patti work miracles at the highest levels – as well as transform less-experienced speakers.”
Ruth Morss,
“Engaging with a group like Be Brilliant to assist with presentations is genius! Patti was amazing, she really refined the slides and taught me more about decks and presentations than anyone I’ve ever worked with! She made the entire process very easy! Thank you.”
Ryan Kerry,
Patti’s attention to detail–to the little things–makes the difference between good and great. The way that she communicates those little things back to me made such a huge difference for great in getting my message across!!”
Marcelo Pozzetti d’Arce,
“When you’re a busy professional, insightful support provided quickly and efficiently is priceless. I knew I had the tips and tricks ready to go because of my meeting with Patti. After my live presentation – not kidding – someone raised their hand at the end and said it was one of the best sessions they attended. Thank you Patti!”
Laura Sloan,
“We knocked it out of the park!! Our audience was engaged, and many said it was one of the best presentations they had ever seen at the conference. We think our graphics-heavy presentation (thanks to Patti) kept the audience focused on our story and didn’t feel like what they would normally see back at work.
Kimberly Brean,
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I had never presented at a conference before, not to mention as a customer spotlight in front of thousands. I was nervous and worried about getting our company’s story across and not making a fool of myself. The presentation came together beautifully. The audience was so engaged! Thank you again.”
Robert Treiber II,
“The biggest benefit to working with Patti is I am now more confident to deliver precise presentations that get my point across with clear purpose and intent and get results. I now know how to present through storytelling. Each session is worth every moment of my time as it’s customized to my immediate needs. ”
Kishore Tummala,
“I was worried about the coaching being remote, and my presentation in person. However, I should not have been worried! Patti’s coaching helped me have the skills to overcome my fears, move forward with creating my presentation quickly, and generate the slides I needed to be the best presenter I could be for my topics.”
Kristie Parker
“I know our customers really appreciated your feedback and I learned a ton from you. Thanks again for making sure everyone was prepared and helping to create interesting and memorable presentations! I’m definitely hoping to work with you again.”
Daniel Haggerty III,
