Pete Vargas – Stage to Scale

Pete Vargas – Stage to Scale

Get the system that’s responsible for booking more than 25,000 stages, including many of the world’s most prestigious platforms!

You’re BUSY trying to grow your business, non-profit, or ministry.

You know you need qualified leads and customers. You’re well aware that they are the lifeblood of your business.

You’ve probably tried all kinds of marketing tools, tips, strategies…supposed “magic bullets”  to get steady leads and consistent customers. Things like:

• Running Facebook ads
• Google Adwords
• Blogging
• Writing and setting up email funnels
• Sitting on seemingly never-ending sales calls
• “Networking” events
• Hiring more team members to implement all the strategies above

But all of these tactics take a ton of time and a significant amount of money. And, so far, your results have been uninspiring.

👎 Your ads are too expensive to scale.

👎 And very few people even open your emails.

👎 All the time you spend on sales calls

Feels like a waste. Most prospects say they “need to think about it” and never circle back to buy from you.

And you know that the reality is you’re going to run out of money unless you start seeing a better return on your investment.

Or maybe you’re just beginning in your business. You’ve got a bit of start-up capital and you want to make the most of it. You’re uncertain of the best way to invest your seed money and you want to know what’ll get you the most bang for your buck. So, you’re at a standstill. Overwhelmed by all the options, you haven’t chosen ANYTHING to help move your business forward. And the clock is ticking. Every day that you don’t act, you’re losing more clients and customers.

Or perhaps you’re someone who’s running a successful business already. Your ads, webinars, and emails ARE working for you, but you want to grow faster!

You’re ready to scale your success to new heights and all you need is the right vehicle to do it and Stages are that vehicle.

Stages are the FASTEST way to grow your business, nonprofit, or ministry.

The power of the right stage, whether it’s an ONLINE or OFFLINE stage, can get you the results you want in your business without taking years or even months. Imagine what your business will be like when you:

• Exponentially grow your impact and income just by sharing your story with the right people
• QUICKLY get the kind of raving fans and followers who sing your praises from the rooftops
• Build a reliable, proven system for scaling your business – whatever type of business you run
• Create an unforgettable “Signature Talk” that speaks to the hearts (and wallets) of your ideal clients
• Transform gatekeepers into allies so you’re invited to the BEST speaking opportunities
• And do it all in less time than you’re probably spending on your business already…

 Hi, I’m Pete Vargas.

Over the past 16 years, I’ve booked tens of thousands of influential stages. Stage to Scale Method is the exact process I’ve used to help thousands of business owners and ministry leaders reach their ideal audiences quickly and grow their dream businesses.

But the Stage to Scale Method is more than just a business for me. It’s my own way of making a lasting impact in the world, by helping people like you spread your stories, ideas, and most importantly, your message.

ONEMan on ONEStage.

Over 16 years ago, my life was changed by ONE man on ONE stage. It was someone just like you…who shared their message…

That ONE man sharing his ONE powerful message revolutionized my life in less than an hour. His message helped me reconcile with my estranged father.

Experience the power of ONE stage.

That one talk by that one man helped me accomplish what I’d been longing for my whole life…a relationship with my DAD.

THAT is the POWER of stages.

Once I experienced it, I dedicated my entire professional life to helping people like YOU spread and scale your own powerful message so that you can impact lives while growing your business.

YOU ARE ONE STAGE AWAY FROM CHANGING

YOUR BUSINESS

Your business will explode when you can finally reach them! Get ready to learn EXACTLY how to find them.

Introducing . . .

We spent 16 years…refining, perfecting and optimizing our system, and we’ve condensed the entirety of what we do into a simple 3 part Framework…Story…Stage…and Scale.

Story…is your Signature Talk – what you say on stage.

Stage…is finding and booking the RIGHT stages – the ones that are full of your ideal clients, in a systematized way.

Scale…how you REALLY generate revenue and make a lasting impact.

These 3 elements work together to create ON DEMAND customer acquisition.

And it works in EVERY niche and EVERY industry.

The Stage to Scale Method shows you exactly how to

• Share your story
• Build instant credibility in the marketplace
• Turn your talks into money-making machines for your business.

In fact, when you leverage the power of stages, you won’t need anything else to keep your business, nonprofit or ministry going strong; no matter what kind of turns the economy takes or what the newest, latest, and greatest social media craze is.

Stages work no matter what business you’re in!

Because whatever you’re doing, you need qualified leads and consistent sales. You need customers, fans, press and publicity to survive and thrive, and you can get ALL of them in less than 60 minutes on the RIGHT stage.

When you get on the best stages, you can leap past your competitors and accomplish in months (or days) what takes other people years.

And you can command much, much higher prices while you do it because of the instant authority and expert credibility that stages convey.

Here’s how Stage to Scale works and what you can expect from the moment you enroll today . . .

• You’ll get tried, tested and proven guidance on how to craft and present your signature story, how to book dream stages, and how to scale your business by weaving an irresistible offer into every single talk you give.

• You’ll learn how to leverage the power of the One-Hour Launch™ instead of spending your precious time and money on endless shiny marketing objects.
• The Stage to Scale Method is broken into five simple-to-implement, value-packed sections so that you master each necessary topic.
• You keep lifetime access to the more than 50 video lessons, transcriptions (in case you prefer to read the lessons instead of watching them), and audio files so you can learn at the pace and in the format you prefer.

Here’s your preview of the Stage to Scale Method:

and if they buy my cassettes I have a shot at changing their life.”

THIS is where you bring in customers, generate revenue and make a lasting impact!

In the Scale Section of the program, you’ll use our simple process create YOUR Perfect Product Suite. You’ll have everything you need to offer the the RIGHT things to the RIGHT people – so you are generating the revenue you desire while making the impact you’re here to make.

“I’ve not found a safer, faster, easier Low/no-cost way to generate anything from a few thousand dollars to well over seven-figures in 30 to 90 minutes.If I had no money and no contacts, this is the vehicle I would choose to create a substantial income from scratch.”

What are the RIGHT
stages worth to you?

Let’s talk numbers, shall we? If you’ve read this far, it’s clear that you’re serious about growing your business, ministry, or mission. And by now you know that stages are the fastest way to get in front of your ideal audience and scale your offers. But what does that look like in real dollars and cents?

Let’s say that you’re in a room full of 1000 ideal clients, and you’re offering an online program that’s valued at $997. A typical close rate for that size room that our clients see is 50% (and we’ve seen as high as 80%). So let’s say that we go with the low end of expected conversions.

That means 500 purchases at $997 each, for a total of $498,500 from a single 60-minute keynote. Nearly half a million dollars in less than an hour!

Now let’s say you’re newer to the game and you get in front of just 100 people with an offer that’s higher-touch and valued at $2,500. Again, with a 50% close rate (the low end of what you can expect), you’re bringing in $125,000 from that one engagement.

Are you starting to see the power of stages far beyond a simple keynote fee?

Magical things happen when you put the right message in front of the right people at the right time.

Your Stage to Scale Method Includes Everything You Need to Get and Stay In Front Of Your Ideal Audience So You Can Scale Your Success!

Here’s How You Know If
The Stage to Scale Method Is For You:

• You’ve got a powerful message that deserves to be heard by more people.
• You’re sick of wasting time on flashy marketing tactics that don’t deliver what they promise.
• You crave a step-by-step, easy-to-implement system that’s proven, and once you have it, you’re willing to follow it fully.
• You want to grow your business, nonprofit, or ministry quickly! You enjoy seeing speedy progress.

Stage to Scale ISN’T For Everyone.
It’s NOT For You If:

• You’re a big fan of trial and error and actually like testing new marketing tactics that may or may not work. Kind of like a marketing mad scientist, you like experimenting and aren’t in any hurry to grow your business.
• You think you know it all already. If you’re not coachable, this isn’t the right program for you.
• You’re not sure if your message is worth spreading.
• You don’t have the funds to invest in your business and you’re not willing to get creative to find them.

But if you ARE excited to grow, willing to follow a proven program, and eager to share your message and impact lives, then you’re in the right place!

It’s decision time.

You get to choose:

Keep trying all the different tactics, tips and strategies to grow your business, hoping you’ll eventually hit on the right one. Or . . .

Enroll in the Stage to Scale Method, and start reaping the benefits of the One-Hour Launch by selling out your irresistible offers from dream stages.

One last quick message!

Your message matters. There are people who will never be able to hear the words they’re desperate for from anyone else but you. I could tell them the SAME thing you would, and it wouldn’t make the same impact. Because they need YOU to share it with them.

When you enroll in the Stage to Scale Method, my team and I have got your back. We’re here to give you the best formula for your signature talk, coach you til you’ve nailed it, then show you exactly how to book the right stages where you’ll be in front of the exact audience who needs you.

Your vision is too important for you to waste another year, month, or even day not knowing how to share it with the world.

Let’s do this together.
