Questions

Before you write.

What does an AI and SEO keynote cover?

How Google and AI tools like ChatGPT build an answer about a person or a company, and what your audience can change that week. I call the method Person Engine Optimization.

What is your speaking fee?

Fee on request. Send the date, the city and who is in the room, and I reply with a fee and my available dates.

Do you travel, and can you speak online?

Yes to both. I'm based in Ahmedabad and travel across India and abroad. Online talks run 45 to 60 minutes with live questions.

Is there a video of you on stage?

Not yet. The videos on this page are studio talks. If your event films the talk, I ask for a copy.

Do you run workshops and corporate training?

Yes. Both talks run as a half-day or a full-day workshop, where your team works on their own names, profiles and pages in the room. Fee on request.

Can you tailor a talk to our audience?

Yes. I build the examples around who is in the room: founders, marketing teams, students or a chamber.

The next stage is yours.
