Client A: I can’t think of anything. Our clients were really happy. They especially liked <she went into detail about my program>. And my goodness, Regina, was amazing to work with.

Client B: Yes! Regina was on top of it! She was so detailed and made sure everything was in place. On a side note, we’ve been talking with the team, and we want to bring you in for internal training…

For my friends who are interested in becoming a professional speaker, this is why it is not enough to just be good on stage. A successful professional speaking business is founded on processes, systems (to support those processes), and strong people in supporting positions. Regina was simply working the systems we had in place. 😉Thanks, Regina Baker! ❤️ – Crystal Washington

Wow! I just had the opportunity to interview Regina for the National Speakers Association NYC Chapter Master Class and she shared information that will help us all grow our businesses by strategically outsourcing work that is not our core area of expertise. 

It’s clear she understands our industry! My favorite thing she said was, “There is no one perfect system.”

Student Testimonials

As a transformational speaker, I was honored to be invited to audit Regina’s Speaker Virtual Assistants Academy course. I cannot recommend this course highly enough! The content was rich with insights and went far beyond expectations. The material was both engaging and practical, making it easy to apply. What truly sets this program apart, however, is the instructor. Not only does Regina deliver on what is promised, she consistently went above and beyond to ensure that every student fully understood the material. She went even further with the level of accessibility and support she offers beyond the scheduled class times. The experience was exceptional, and quite rare, in that this was not a “cattle-call” online course for however many want to register. Regina restricted the number of participants to support everyone’s success and her availability to accommodate us. We always felt supported, whether through quick responses to questions or the willingness to dive deeper to ensure we were grasping the material. Knowing Regina, her wealth of knowledge as it relates to business, the needs of professional speakers, attention to detail and the technology needed to best support the business of highly successful, professional speakers, I definitely had high expectations of the course. This course exceeded my expectations in every way, and I’m incredibly grateful for the experience!" Though I have been a professional speaker for a while, I am relatively new to building a business as a professional speaker. I would be remiss if I didn’t also share that, though Regina is promoting this program for individuals interested in providing a range of support to professional speakers. If you are a speaker who is challenged to figure out and put in place the backend processes for operating as a business, you could very easily benefit from enrolling in this program, minimally, you would benefit from a conversation with Regina.

Regina Baker’s class on working with public speakers was exactly what I needed to take my skills to the next level. Her teaching style is clear, engaging, and filled with real-world insights. She showed us how to effectively engage with speaker bureaus, communicate with them over the phone, and read speaker contracts with confidence. Regina also introduced us to essential tools like eSpeakers, Talkadot, Speakerflow, and Zoho, making sure we’re fully equipped to be the go-to person for our speakers. This class is a must for anyone serious about supporting public speakers!" I truly enjoyed your class as always. I LOVE your teaching style. You are patient, helpful and a truly giving person looking for nothing in return!! Your love of working with speakers is contagious in a good way!!!!

I learned the difference between a speaker agent and a speaker manager. The conversation was eye-opening in the best way. Regina was very personable and easy to talk with, and she provided me with honest feedback on the industry as a whole. From her, I learned the differences between a speaker agent and a speaker manager, compensation for services, and the criteria I should look for in potential speaker clients. She answered all of my questions and beyond. Most importantly, the conversation with Regina helped me gain confidence in starting my own business based on my own knowledge and experience in the association world. Today, I feel more prepared to take the next step.

As someone who supports authors who are often also speakers, I was excited to learn a new way to help them share their message through speaking. Regina’s program provided a framework that clarified the specific needs of professional speakers and the logistics involved in supporting them effectively. The content gave me a better understanding of the speaking industry, including the systems and processes that keep everything running smoothly. What I appreciated most was the homework—it encouraged me to start applying the concepts right away. I’m someone who learns best through real-world implementation, so I’m excited to take what I’ve learned and practice it in my work. Overall, this program gave me insight into areas where I can grow and expand my skills. It’s motivated me to keep learning and improving by doing the work, and I can't wait to see how these new tools will help me better support my clients over time.

Conference Testimonials

I promised to share some insight from the Global Power Virtual Assistants Conference I recently attended, and even though I’ve been caught up with work, I can’t let this moment pass without putting this down. To be honest, when I registered, I thought it would be like every other VA training I’ve come across. But this was nothing like the usual. It was INTENTIONAL, RAW, packed with real, unfiltered VALUE . The speakers poured their hearts knowledge, and years of experience into us, and I left with so much to REFLECT ON. I left this conference with my mindset expanded, my confidence renewed, and my next steps clear. Grateful to every speaker for the value they poured into us. Most importantly, grateful to Regina Baker for creating such an impactful space for growth. I look forward to the next event.

I'm still basking in the euphoria of the Global Power Virtual Assistants Virtual Conference and honestly, I'm not coming down anytime soon. Two full days of mind-shifting, soul-nourishing, strategy-packed brilliance, and I’m still trying to process it all. From the very first session, it was clear this wasn’t just another conference. It was intentional. It was authentic. It was transformational. Every speaker brought their whole self, their wisdom, their truth, and it resonated deeply. I'm still here in deep gratitude. Regina, thank you for the vision, the leadership, and the heart you poured into every part of this event. To every speaker, thank you for showing up with such generosity and clarity. Your words landed. Your impact is lasting. To every attendee, thank you for making this more than just a conference. Thank you for the chat conversations, the questions, the laughter, and the energy. We built something real. We built a community.
