From theme to lineup

Once you choose a theme, assign each main session one angle of it, then look for speakers whose strengths fit each angle. Share the theme, key verse, and session angle with every speaker so the conference builds instead of repeating. Listing your event in the Sent Speakers events directory can also help speakers and attendees find you.
