Question Title

* 11. We are opening up 3 different opportunities for speaking. The first one is a breakout class where you will teach for 45 mins to a smaller group. This is included in admission and there will be 4 classes going on at the same time but this year you WILL NOT be competing with Styled Shoots. Only breakouts will be going on during the breakout session time. The payment for this is complementary registration to the conference and lodging at our host hotel.  No travel will be provided.

The third opportunity is leading a styled shoot. We charge $375 for this class.  It's 2 hrs long (but you can do 2 back to back if you wish) and you will receive a 50% commission. This class is limited to 20 attendees and you will be responsible for styling, florals and models. All styled shoots will take place on the resort property this year.  There are over 200 acres of land and it consists of Marsh, beach, Oak trees and open fields.  This year is all about being creative! Lodging at our host resort will be provided.

And the 4th opportunity is a main stage speaker.  You will be paid $1500 flat fee for speaking, up to a $1000 covered for travel and lodging at our host resort.  If you apply to be a main stage speaker, you are required to lead a break-out class or a styled shoot. Main stage topics need to be inspirational.

We are requiring all speakers to be present during the entire conference since we are now covering lodging. This would be arriving on Sunday, April 16th and leaving the morning of Thursday, April 20th.  We will have a meet and greet cocktail party on Sunday, April 16th, Welcome party on Monday, April 17th, Main stage speaker and sponsor dinner on Tuesday, April 18th and a Gala on Wednesday, April 19th.

Please chose what you would be interested in.  You can choose more than one.  You can also obtain third party sponsorship to help pay travel/speaker fees which we highly recommend!
