Keynote Topics

Keynotes built for small business audiences

Every talk is drawn from what David does daily across his own 60+ brands, then tailored to your event, your industry, and your audience. These are the topics organisers ask for most.

AI & Automation

The One-Person Empire

How does one owner run dozens of online stores without a big team? Systems, checklists, and knowing exactly what to automate and what to keep hands-on. Your audience leaves with a clear picture of which jobs to hand over and which ones to hold onto.

AI & Automation

AI Without the Hype

Most AI talks are big on predictions and short on proof. This one is a working session: David builds a real, useful tool for a real audience member's business, live on stage. No theory, no jargon. Just proof that this technology is ready for small business right now.

Stop Renting Your Customers

If Google or Meta changed the rules tomorrow, would your business survive? David has been suspended, throttled and burned by the big platforms, and rebuilt every time. A wake-up call about platform risk, with a practical plan for owning your email list, your website and your reviews.

The Marketing Plan That Fits on a Beer Coaster

Small businesses rarely fail from too little marketing. They fail from too much of the wrong kind. David strips it all back to the handful of moves that actually grow revenue for a small business, and explains why most of the rest is expensive noise.

What Google's AI Search Means for Your Business

Customers are starting to ask AI for answers instead of scrolling through search results. That changes how every business gets found. David explains what is actually happening, what it means for local and niche businesses, and what to fix this year so you stay visible.

Business Mindset

Boring Businesses, Beautiful Margins

Bird spikes. Curtain tracks. Latex pillows. David built profitable stores in niches nobody brags about at dinner parties, and that is exactly the point. A refreshing case for choosing unglamorous markets, charging properly, and letting everyone else fight over the trendy scraps.
