The nation’s premier college coach recruiting conference is approaching soon, and we would like to invite you to be one of our keynote presenters.

The 2013 National Collegiate Recruiting Conference will be held June 7-9, 2013, at the Charlotte Hilton Downtown in beautiful Charlotte, North Carolina.  It brings together coaches, recruiters, marketing and sales experts and others from the world of college athletics for one specific purpose:  Gain the knowledge and skills necessary to dominate their competition in the most important part of their job…recruiting.

That’s where you come in:

We would like to invite you to be a part of this event as a speaker and presenter.  We are looking for you to contribute high value content live to our attendees, as well as to an extended audience of coaches and athletic directors that will view the three day conference via streaming and recorded video.

Why should you be a presenter at the 2013 NCRC?

• Showcase yourself as an expert in your field to your peers and future employers.
• Enjoy a free forum to showcase books, materials and products that you are offering.
• Take advantage of a highly personalized networking opportunity, where you will have direct access to the attendees at the NCRC
• Enhance your resume and professional biography by being listed as a keynote presenter at the nation’s premier recruiting symposium.
• Attend the entire conference at no cost (not including travel and hotel costs, which are the individual speaker’s responsibility)

We produce the NCRC every year as a way of giving back to the college coaching community, so in the interest of keeping conference registration fees as low as possible for our attendees, we can not offer speaking fees or honorariums to our valued speakers.  However, we will accommodate any and all requests for space to showcase

your products or services at no additional charge to you.  Our speakers at past events have commented that the cost of traveling to the conference, food and lodging are quickly recouped through additional sales and networking opportunities that the event provides.

Will you accept our invitation to be a part of this one-of-a-kind event?  If you are interested, please contact Dan Tudor directly at dan@dantudor.com.  We would like to know what your topic would be (recruiting, sales, motivation, coaching or career development), and what additional needs you have as one of our featured guest speakers.

Thank you for considering our invitation to present at this summer’s National Collegiate Recruiting Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina!
