conference event speaking jeff archibald

Conference & event speaking is something I love to do, as learning at these events earlier in my career helped me grow considerably. Now, I can give back a bit by speaking at these events and sharing what I’ve learned, like I do on my blog. Primarily, the type of conference & event speaking topics I cover revolve around the following subjects:

  • Business Development
  • Business Consulting / Running an Organization
  • Growth Strategies & Lead Generation
  • Leadership
  • Design & Branding
  • Digital Project Management
  • Digital Strategy

Conference & Event Speaking Engagements

Featured Talks

Here are a few videos of past conference & event talks I’ve given – the majority of my engagements have not been recorded, but past events, topics, and their decks are all available a bit further down.

Inside the Black Box of Web Design Pricing

Web design costs come in a huge range of shapes & sizes. Thanks to that range, clients can struggle with understanding why websites cost what they do, and freelancers/shops can struggle with how to price their services. This talk, given in 2014, covers how to understand and solve that problem: the thought processes, variables, logic, and math that goes into pricing custom web design & development from the perspective of someone who’s grown from a two-person home-based business to (at the time) a 6-person shop.


The Brand Lighthouse

Everything you do on social media should come back to one key point: your brand. It is the fundamental map for your actions and growth. The term “brand” is oft-misunderstood; in this talk, given in 2014, I cover what a brand actually means, methods to build a brand online, and how to manage it.

Branding vs. Logo Design (Panel)

This is an oldie, from 2012. Capital Ideas was an initiative in Edmonton designed to operate like a startup, offering content events for entrepreneurs in Edmonton. In this panel, we discussed the difference between holistic branding and straight-up logo design.
