When Kiko & Josh conceptualized Prestige Conference, they did it using WordPress as the framework for the education they wanted to provide their attendees.

While that’s still a piece of the puzzle, the event has evolved into something so much more than just another WordPress conference.

The event organizers have taken the core of what makes the WordPress community great and used that model to create a business conference that’s unlike those you’ve seen in the past. You’ll find the same friendliness and willingness to help you with your goals. The same Open Source concept for problem solving. The same high-level experts you see making waves in the space.

But you won’t find any JQuery or plugin integration sessions here. Prestige Conference isn’t about building your skills as a developer or a designer. It’s a whole new level of sessions on what it takes to manage your business and your career.

Need help figuring out your pricing model? Lisa Sabin-Wilson will tell you why you should charge more and how to get clients to accept a rate that reflects the value you bring to the table.

Want to know what attracts clients & customers to your business? Whether you’re looking for them to hire you, buy from you, or learn from you, Jennifer Bourn will explain how a design-first approach sets the stage for success.

Feel like sometimes you have no idea what the hell you’re doing? Reid Peifer has been there. He’s even willing to share a bunch of the stupid mistakes he made along the way to building a $1 million dollar a year “side business.”

Wonder how to handle growth? Jake Goldman took his company 10up from a 1-man show to a 70+ person brand in less than 3.5 years. He’s offered to get up on stage for an intensive interview that will walk you through his watershed moments & risks that paid off. Like all of our speakers, Jake will be equally candid about decisions he regretted making along the way.

This is just a sampling of the type of business insights and advice you’ll gain by attending Prestige. Yes, all the speakers work in the WordPress environment. But the sessions apply to anyone that’s currently freelancing or building their business, regardless of the industry they’re working in.
