WHAT’S ACTUALLY BROKEN
Existing organizations no longer serve today’s leaders.
- Traditional clubs.
- Networking groups.
- Online communities.
They all promised connection.
- Networking – not transformation
- Transactions – not relationships
- Visibility – not community
What people are actually searching for:
- Visibility that’s earned, not algorithmic
- Credibility built through real demonstrated leadership
- Community based on genuine connection and shared values
- Opportunity that comes from being known and trusted by people who matter
- Influence that translates into doors opening
- Purpose that transcends the personal and creates impact
- Impact that gets recognized and celebrated
- Legacy that outlasts the moment

MOST PEOPLE DISQUALIFY THEMSELVES BEFORE THEY EVER BEGIN
The gap between who you are and who you think you can become.
People see:
- Speakers on stages
- Authors with published books
- Influential leaders
- Respected change makers
And they think: “That could never be me.”
But here’s the truth every respected leader knows: Every influential voice started as someone uncertain whether they were enough.
The question isn’t whether you can do this. The question is: What’s the pathway?
THE RIGHT ROOM CHANGES EVERYTHING
We’ve seen it happen hundreds of times. A person walks into a Top Talent Locals chapter uncertain of their voice. Within months, something shifts.
- Their visibility grows. They’re being seen for who they actually are and what they stand for.
- Their confidence grows. Surrounded by people who’ve been there, they stop waiting to be ready and start stepping into their power.
- Their opportunities grow. The right people know their name, their story, and what they’re building. Doors that were closed start opening.
- Their influence grows. What started as a quiet voice becomes a recognized perspective. Their message reaches farther. Their impact deepens.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is Top Talent Local?
Top Talent Local is a membership community for speakers, authors, and experts. We provide weekly meetings, discounts to national events, entry-level support for publishing/publicity/production, and a direct path to full representation by Top Talent Agency (David Fagan).
How is this different from BNI / Chamber / NSA?
BNI/Chamber are general business, NSA focuses only on speaking skills. Top Talent Local is built specifically for experts and offers access to a real agency (publishing, PR, booking) plus a high-level community.
Who is this for?
Speakers (aspiring or paid), authors (self or traditionally published), coaches, consultants, and any expert with a message. Not for people who don’t want to meet others or seek get-rich-quick.
What does $100/month or $997/year include?
Weekly meetings, monthly Authority Labs, discounted event tickets, entry-level support (one-sheets, book proposals), discounted production, community collaboration, and a pathway to full agency representation. Annual members also get a 1‑hour strategy call.
Can I cancel anytime?
Monthly plan: cancel online with one click. Annual plan: full refund within 14 days; after that you keep access for the full year.
What if my city doesn’t have a chapter?
Contact us – we’ll put you on a list. Once there’s enough interest, we help launch a new chapter. You can also attend online meetings from any existing chapter in the meantime.
Can I attend a meeting before joining?
Yes. Every chapter welcomes guests for one free meeting. Just find a chapter on our website and show up.
How do I get full agency representation?
Members who demonstrate expertise and professionalism may be invited to apply for Top Talent Agency’s roster. No extra fee – the agency takes a commission on booked work (industry standard). Being a Local member gives you visibility.
Can I become a Chapter President / license owner?
Absolutely. We are actively seeking leaders to own territories (cities/metros). Investment ranges from $15k–$150k depending on density. You’ll earn 20% of dues, 50% of sponsorships, 10% of agency referrals, and you keep 100% of your own coaching/services. Request info below.
What is the refund policy for events/contests?
Event tickets and contest entry fees are non-refundable but fully transferable to another person. Membership refunds as described above.
