How It All Began

In January 2012, Alicia got inspiration for back of the room branding for all business owners after attending a two day seminar given by a high profile sales coach. She learned that even multi-million dollar speakers are leaving money on the table when they speak. This nationally known speaker had no giveaway product, no agenda or handout, not even a banner or poster that branded him or his company. To top it off, the only offer he made available cost $400, causing him to miss out on revenue from those who were willing to invest in something that cost a little less.

Because of a lack of back of the room products and presence, Alicia walked out of the room without the speaker ever getting her information or her money. Armed with expertise in design, marketing and branding, she founded Back of the Room Productions and launched the company in March 2012. Alicia eagerly shares the importance of consistent branding and how to stop leaving money on the table. New and experienced speakers instantly see the benefits and abundance of opportunities for giving their audience more of their message.
