In this episode I'm joined by Ravi Rajani — a speaker who I can honestly say is up there with the best I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. Ravi was introduced to me by Dani Wallace, and after watching him present to my mastermind, I knew I had to get him on the podcast. What he shared completely changed how I think about crafting and delivering a talk. We get into Ravi's "Three C's of Trust" framework — Connection, Competence, and Character — and why, when five people offer the same thing at the same price with the same results, the one who wins is the one the audience trusts most. Ravi breaks down his "six Lego bricks" structure for building a signature talk that can flex from 10 minutes to 3 hours, how to choose which story to tell from the hundreds you could tell, and why he believes "amateurs wing it, but professionals make you believe they're winging it." We also cover some brilliant practical advice for event organisers and speakers alike — including why shaving 10% off your allotted time will get you invited back again and again (something every event promoter will thank you for). Ravi also shares a free resource — a sample chapter from his book Relationship Currency, which goes deeper into how to craft a "social proof story" that moves people to action. And if you're coming to Expert Empires in November 2026 — Ravi will be speaking live. Trust me, you don't want to miss it. VALUABLE RESOURCES https://www.theravirajani.com/socialproofstories ABOUT THE HOST Nick James Nick dropped out of university at 21 and failed spectacularly with his first coaching business, which forced him to take a £16k/yr telesales job. Within 12 months he was the top performer and left to start his second business at 24. This time he discovered a winning formula and before long had a multi-six-figure company. He then made a huge mistake which nearly put him out of business and cost him £50,000 in personal cash. Fortunately, Nick kept it afloat, turned it around, and sold that business two years later in a seven-figure deal. He then co-founded a multi-million-pound marketing company, which he exited in 2015, and created Expert Empires. Today, Expert Empires is known as the UK's number one business event for Experts, with world-renowned speakers including Gary Vaynerchuk, Grant Cardone, David Goggins, and Lewis Howes gracing the stage. Nick also specialises in helping Coaches, Consultants, Speakers, Trainers, and Authors take their businesses from zero to six figures and beyond through his Expert Empires Mastermind programme.
