Startups in Stilettos Emily Hall on Turning Every Talk into Real Business Growth
“Everyone wants the magic wand solution for this, and I always have to disappoint people a little bit. It's just kind of hard work sometimes, that's a good thing, everything worthwhile is, and it helps you to be able to build relationships very intentionally in the right way.”
In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Emily Hall, founder of Rhetorik Agency, to explore the power of long-term thinking in entrepreneurship. Emily shares why focusing on a 7-year vision, rather than short-term reactions, can elevate founders into their highest, most strategic roles.
Whether you're a seasoned speaker or just starting out, Emily’s strategies will help you communicate with impact and build authority in your industry. Plus, learn why investors are now asking startups about their thought leadership strategy, how to leverage AI without losing your unique voice in thought leadership, and how you can stay a stride ahead.
