A clear, consistent positioning — a specific niche, a recognisable set of talks — helps organisers instantly know what to book you for, rather than wondering if you're a fit for their event. Done well, this doesn't feel like self-promotion; it feels like clarity.
What actually builds this, honestly
- Picking a small number of topics you genuinely go deep on, rather than claiming breadth across everything adjacent to your field.
- Consistent language across your bio, one-pager and talks, so organisers who've seen you speak once recognise you immediately for a different event.
- Publicly writing about the same topics you speak on, so the positioning is backed by substance, not just a polished bio.
The line between positioning and hollow self-promotion
Positioning that's backed by real, checkable work — sessions given, articles written, projects shipped — reads as clarity. Positioning with nothing underneath it reads as exactly the self-promotion it's trying not to look like.
