The Program:

You’ve created and refined highly successful programs. You want to reach more people by licensing your program to companies, earning you money while you kick back and relax or work on new projects. Licensing is a real client-pleaser too, saving them money in the process and allowing them to roll out your concepts to many more people.

But there are so many questions. How do you approach a company or association about this? Does it work best with current or past clients? How do you ensure the quality of the program is kept high? How would you set fees: annual, per-session, per-person? If there’s a per-person fee, how do you audit to make sure you’re getting all that’s coming to you? How do you encourage the organization to keep using the program years after you’re not the one presenting it?

Let the “Master of Licensing,” past NSA president Jim Hennig, PhD, CSP, CPAE, show you how to take your well-proven presentations and multiply the impact and your revenue.

In this session you will learn:

  • Which companies are ideal for licensing—and which are not
