Two minutes that show exactly what your Florida leaders will feel in the room—and why more than 60% of Jake's bookings come from people who saw him speak and brought him back.
Trusted by Teams That Already Win — and Want to Keep Winning
Sales organizations, construction leaders, and growing companies bring Jake in when the danger isn't falling behind. It's getting comfortable.
Are you planning a Meeting, event, or conference in Florida?
You're not booking a speaker for a room full of people who don't know how to win. Your team already knows. They hit the number. They earned the offsite. And somewhere inside that success, the standard quietly softened.
That drift is what Jake Thompson is built to interrupt.
Jake is a Certified Speaking Professional (CSP®) — a credential held by fewer than 700 professional speakers worldwide - and an anti-complacency strategist who has delivered 500+ keynotes to sales organizations, construction leadership teams, and executive groups across pharmaceutical, financial services, insurance, real estate, and franchising. Clients include Florida’s own Florida Realtors Association, State Farm Chairman’s Club of Florida, APEX Physical Therapy, and Florida Staffing Association, as well as global brands such as Deloitte, Pfizer, and more.
He founded Compete Every Day in 2011 and grew it into a brand worn by competitors in 62 countries. The frameworks he teaches from the stage were pressure-tested in his own business first.
What your Florida audience leaves with:
Jake builds every program around your industry, your language, and the specific drift showing up in your team. Your audience walks out with:
*A diagnostic for spotting complacency before it shows up in the numbers
*The C.O.M.P.E.T.E.® Framework — a system that runs on a random Tuesday when no one is watching
*Language leaders can use in Monday's meeting, not just at the conference
*One standard to hold themselves to: beat yesterday
Compete with yesterday.
Collaborate with your team.
Conquer your market.
“Jake Thompson delivered an outstanding session at our recent Global Sales Summit held in Fort Lauderdale.
His message on competition, mindset, and resilience resonated with our team, leaving them energized and inspired. Jake’s dynamic presence and engaging storytelling made a lasting impression, continuing to resonate long after the session ended.
As an event planner, working with Jake was a seamless experience—he was professional, responsive, and fully delivered on show day. It was a pleasure collaborating with him, and I highly recommend Jake for any organization looking to motivate and empower their teams!”

Questions Before You Book
-
Jake builds every talk around your industry, your audience, and the specific drift your team is facing—post-record-year complacency, a comfortable plateau, or busy work that isn't closing.
-
Fees vary by event format, audience, and customization. Share your details and Jake will respond with availability and a clear proposal.
-
This is the single objection your differentiation doc flags as the fear "every culture-minded buyer has." A warm prospect on a booking page is exactly who's quietly worried about it. Answering it preempts the biggest reason a culture-focused HR or C-suite buyer hesitates.
-
Pure logistics, and it does double duty: it answers a real planning question and plants gentle urgency (calendar fills up) without any of the "act now!" desperation you've banned. Warm bookers are often scoping timelines.
-
Speaks directly to the "intentionality and preparation" your clients praise in testimonials. It signals the process is collaborative and reassures the planner that customization isn't extra work on their end.
-
Yes. Sales teams, construction and leadership groups, associations, and growing organizations all book Jake. The problem he solves—complacency after success—shows up everywhere.
