credVoices.
cred has worked to close the equity gap in thought leaders since we were born in 2015. As our team and business continues to grow, so does our responsibility to address these disparities. We are aware that our services may not be accessible to leaders from historically marginalized communities for various reasons. In order to proactively address the accessibility gap, we introduced our pro-bono program, credVoices, in 2022.
what is credVoices?
Leaders receive our services—speaker management and event management—at no cost. This program aims to equip leaders from historically marginalized communities with the tools to build thought leadership and grow their platform.
what does the program include?
credVoices is a 6-month program where a leader receives an offering of cred’s thought leadership services at no cost, including: one webinar, 2-3 secured speaking engagements, a speaking strategy including goals, target audiences, and key messages, and a 12-month list of recommended events & podcasts.
