International keynote speaker, 2x championship coach, bestselling author, and peak performance strategist to Olympians, Grammy & Emmy award winning artists, and 8-figure entrepreneurs: Brandon Burns delivers high-impact keynotes that combine proven frameworks with championship intensity — so your audience leaves with both the fire and the system to win.
A former walk-on athlete turned viral sensation after completing the world's first sitting backflip & becoming a 2x Big Ten Championship-winning coach at the University of Michigan, Brandon Burns built his career on systematically helping teams and leaders achieve peak performance through identity rather than fleeting motivation.
Holding degrees in both psychology and economics, Brandon has served as a strategic advisor for Olympic athletes, Grammy and Emmy award-winning artists, and some of the most prolific entrepreneurs of this generation — generating over $15 million in revenue for his clients.
As a former elite athlete, Big Ten Network commentator, seasoned live-event host / MC, and bestselling author, Brandon brings a rare combination of broadcast polish, championship credibility, and real-world business results to every stage he commands.

Each keynote is framework-driven, story-powered, and designed to deliver measurable outcomes — not just applause.
Identity → Standards → Consistency → Results
Most organizations don't struggle with strategy — they struggle with consistency. In this high-impact keynote, Brandon shows teams how elite performers build identity-based systems that make excellence automatic. Using lessons from coaching championship teams and driving over $15M in sales, he introduces a practical framework for turning 'culture' into daily standards that drive measurable outcomes.
Turning Personal Brands Into Predictable, Scalable Businesses
Most personal brands generate attention and cash flow. Very few generate enterprise value. Brandon teaches the same frameworks used behind the scenes with high-profile creators and 8-figure operators to transform influence into predictable income. This keynote breaks down exactly how to package expertise, remove founder dependency, build scalable offers, and install automated sales systems.
Hire Brandon to Sell Your Offer From Stage
Why risk your headliner's relationship with the audience by having them ask for the sale? Brandon has generated over $1M in a single hour from stage and has driven over $15M in one-to-many sales for clients like Eric Thomas, Karl Phillips, and Matthew Headden. He literally wrote the book on one-to-many sales — the bestseller 'Influence 2 Income.' When a third-party expert makes the pitch, your founder keeps the audience's trust while Brandon leverages battle-tested pre-framing stories and conversion psychology to put your audience into a buying state. The result: higher close rates, a protected brand, and revenue you would have otherwise left on the table.
Brandon is a regular commentator for the Big Ten Network, providing live expert analysis for every televised men's gymnastics meet of the season — including the Big Ten Championships. He's filmed promotional videos for the Jumbotron at live sporting events, professionally-shot commercials for advertisements & UGC, and hosted virtual events with over 10,000 attendees. He's hosted award banquets, MC'd conferences, and brings a natural broadcast presence that translates seamlessly across live events, virtual productions, and television.
