The Question Every Emerging Speaker Asks:

How do I Get The Gigs AND Get Paid?

If you’re asking this, chances are you’re also experiencing:

You’re unsure where to find the stages that fit your message.

You’re networking, posting, sending messages… and still not getting traction.

You’re speaking - but never to the right rooms or the right buyers.

You’re not getting paid, or you’re being underpaid because you can’t articulate your value

You’re watching louder, less-qualified speakers get the gigs you should be winning.

You’re brilliant… but inconsistent.

People tell you your content is “amazing” - but it isn’t converting into business, leads, or cash.

Your pitch is falling flat. In fact, you’re getting ghosted.

You’re doing all the things, yet nothing moves the needle.

If any of this sounds familiar, your challenge is not talent - it’s strategy.

First Level Launch gives you the full, step-by-step commercial strategy to position yourself, launch properly, and start landing paid speaking opportunities.

So… What IS First Level Launch?

First Level Launch is an on-demand, commercially proven roadmap designed for:

Subject Matter Experts
Movement Builders & Charity Founders

Aspiring & Emerging Speakers
Professional Speakers repositioning or relaunching

The course takes you from confused, inconsistent and underbooked to:
Clearly positioned
Professionally packaged
Commercially compelling
Confidently pitching
Getting booked (and paid)
And it does this through a simple 13-week launch plan you can follow step by step, and the proven strategies that actually work for speakers.

Why This Works (When Nothing Else Has)

Most speakers fall into the trap of trying to ‘wing it’. They create a keynote… but not a strategy. They post on social… without positioning. They send pitches… without understanding the buyer.

Speaking is a business.
And every business needs strategy.

First Level Launch gives speakers the missing commercial engine:
✔ A professional collateral suite
✔ A simple, replicable way to find (and win) the right stages
✔ A sales process built specifically for speakers
✔ The confidence and consistency to grow a speaking-driven business
✔ Plug & play strategies that actually work for speakers

This is not “theory.”
These are the exact strategies we give our private clients, leading to:
Paid keynote bookings
Corporate contracts
Media opportunities
Consistent inbound leads
Speaking-driven revenue

It works because it’s built for how the speaking industry actually operates.

What Speakers Say About First Level Launch

" I am learning things that no other program has ever covered "

Pamela Wigglesworth CSP, Singapore

" As a professional speaker in the business for over 20 years, I make it a point to invest in my continuous learning within the speaking industry. Over the years I've participated in other speaker academies or similar learning opportunities. Recently I began the First Level Launch online programme, created and conducted by Jacqueline Nagel. In all my years in the business, I have never seen a programme as in-depth as First Level Launch. This programme is jam-packed with lessons, videos, template, how-to-guides and more. I’ve only scratched the surface of the massive amounts of content that is included. I am learning things that no other programme has ever covered. In fact, don’t let the title of this programme fool you. Anyone who partakes in this programme is walking away with an MBA for Professional Speakers. Any person looking to get into the speaking business, I highly recommend you invest in First Level Launch. "

" This course is
exactly what I needed!! "

I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for the First Level Launch program. The information in this online course is exactly what I needed as an emerging keynote speaker to accelerate my growth as a speaker, and allow me to shine. Your videos feel like you are talking to me personally, and they have been answering all the questions in my mind. It is professional, comprehensive, and I would highly recommend!

" I now know how to
direct, amplify & support Julie "

Before starting the First Level Launch I was lost with how to support Julie Gillespie as a speaker. Her role was to get the speech written, mine was to somehow work out the rest. First Level Launch means I now know how to direct, support, and amplify Julie as a keynote speaker. The content is all on point, it's simple to digest, easy to follow, and goes through everything you need to know. Thank you for creating such an amazing and practical program!

Real Speakers. Real Results.

From Speaking for Free to Paid Expert & Speaker

I was looking to bring to life my knowledge and expertise through a Keynote but unsure where to start. I’d been speaking for years, had plenty of experience but didn’t have the skill to take it to the next level. Enter Jacqueline. She helped get my ideas, thoughts and experience out on paper and into a Keynote. Since meeting her I’ve featured in The Australian Newspaper twice, been a panellist on Sky News and landed a Paid Keynote at an upcoming conference.

From Nurse to Paid Corporate Professional Speaker

While I have been speaking on small stages for twenty years, I didn’t know how to take my speaking to the next level. Jacqueline taught me how to get cut through as a professional speaker and took me from a small niche market to a strong brand and powerful message, which is reaching a much wider corporate audience. She also helped me grow my speaker business to be competitive in the market. Jacqueline helped me to bring ALL of myself to the stage and to be fearlessly authentic, for which I am deeply grateful.

Generated Six Figures from Stage and Landed a Paid Keynote

I heard Jacqueline speak and realised as much as I loved speaking I had never generated results or work out of it. I attended her 3 day workshop and the first time I delivered my new speech to an audience of more than 100 entrepreneurs I sold more than six figures in coaching services AND landed a paid speaking gig on Hamilton Island with all expenses paid for my family and I - without a single pitch.
