This Royalty Speaks Signature Talk Intensive Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Royalty Speaks, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“Company”), and the individual purchasing or participating in the Royalty Speaks Signature Talk Intensive (“Client”).
This Agreement becomes effective on the date Client accepts it electronically, signs it, or completes purchase.
1. Program Description
The Royalty Speaks Signature Talk Intensive is a six-week live group training program designed to help participants identify, clarify, structure, develop, refine, practice, and present a signature talk based on their expertise, experience, and message.
The Program may include:
live group instruction;
workbook exercises;
frameworks and worksheets;
demonstrations;
group discussion;
selected participant feedback;
presentation practice;
assignments; and
related learning resources.
The specific Program dates, times, format, price, payment options, and inclusions are those stated on the applicable checkout page, invoice, receipt, or Program description.
2. Group Program; No Private Coaching
Client understands that the Signature Talk Intensive is a group training program.
Unless expressly included in Client’s purchase, the Program does not include:
private coaching;
private consulting;
private homework review;
private speech editing;
done-for-you speechwriting;
individualized feedback between sessions; or
one-on-one make-up sessions.
Royalty Speaks may provide feedback, demonstrations, examples, or selected participant hot-seat opportunities during scheduled group sessions.
Client is not guaranteed individual coaching or individual feedback time during every session.
3. Participant Responsibilities
Client is responsible for completing Client’s own workbook exercises, assignments, drafts, rehearsals, and presentation preparation.
Royalty Speaks provides instruction, frameworks, examples, guidance, and feedback during scheduled Program sessions.
Client remains responsible for writing, revising, practicing, completing, and delivering Client’s own signature talk.
Homework and assignments are not privately reviewed by Royalty Speaks between sessions unless Royalty Speaks expressly agrees otherwise in writing.
Participants may be asked to bring completed work to a scheduled group session for discussion, demonstration, or feedback within the group setting.
4. Private Group Chat
Royalty Speaks may provide participants with access to a private group chat during the Program.
The private group chat may be used for:
Program announcements;
reminders;
community connection;
encouragement; and
brief Program-related questions or clarification.
The private group chat does not include:
private coaching;
private homework review;
detailed speech editing;
review of lengthy drafts;
individualized consulting;
guaranteed immediate responses; or
individualized feedback outside scheduled group sessions.
Questions requiring substantial review, coaching, or discussion may be addressed during the next scheduled Program session.
Participants should use the designated group communication channel for Program-related questions rather than contacting the facilitator privately unless specifically invited to do so.
Royalty Speaks does not guarantee that the private group chat will remain available after completion of the Program.
5. Attendance and Missed Sessions
Client is responsible for attending scheduled Program sessions.
A missed session does not create a right to:
a refund;
account credit;
reduced payment;
private make-up session;
one-on-one replacement session;
Program extension; or
automatic transfer to another cohort.
If session recordings are made available, they are provided as a courtesy unless expressly guaranteed as part of Client’s purchase.
Client remains responsible for catching up on any missed Program material.
6. No Refunds
Due to the live nature of the Program, limited enrollment, access to proprietary curriculum and materials, and resources reserved for each participant, all payments are non-refundable, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
Failure to attend, participate, complete assignments, complete Client’s signature talk, use Program materials, or fully utilize the Program does not create a right to a refund.
Client’s decision to discontinue participation does not create a right to a refund or cancel any remaining payment obligation.
7. Installment Payment Plans
If Client selects an installment payment plan, Client agrees to pay the full Program investment.
An installment plan is a payment arrangement for the full purchase price. It is not a pay-as-you-attend arrangement, month-to-month membership, or cancel-anytime subscription.
Client’s obligation to make all remaining scheduled payments continues even if Client:
stops attending;
withdraws from the Program;
becomes inactive;
misses sessions;
fails to participate;
fails to complete assignments;
fails to complete Client’s signature talk;
fails to use Program materials or resources;
experiences a scheduling conflict; or
decides not to continue.
Failure to attend or participate does not cancel, reduce, suspend, or delay any remaining payment obligation.
8. Past-Due Payments and Program Access
Client must remain current on all scheduled payments in order to continue participating in the Program.
If a scheduled installment is not successfully paid when due, Royalty Speaks may immediately suspend Client’s access to:
live Program sessions;
Program recordings;
Program materials;
the private group chat; and
other Program resources or benefits.
Client may not continue attending Program sessions while the account is past due unless Royalty Speaks expressly authorizes continued participation in writing.
Suspension of access does not cancel, reduce, suspend, or otherwise eliminate Client’s obligation to pay the remaining balance owed under the installment plan.
Once the past-due amount is paid and the account is brought current, Royalty Speaks may restore access to the remaining Program sessions and resources, subject to the existing
Program schedule.
Royalty Speaks is not required to provide private make-up sessions, additional sessions, extensions, or replacement instruction for Program time missed because Client’s account was past due.
Royalty Speaks reserves the right to pursue any unpaid balance and remedies available under this Agreement and applicable law.
9. Cohort Transfers
Enrollment applies to the specific cohort purchased.
Client does not have an automatic right to transfer to another cohort because of:
missed sessions;
scheduling conflicts;
withdrawal;
travel;
illness;
work obligations;
personal circumstances; or
failure to participate.
Royalty Speaks may approve an exception or accommodation at its discretion.
An accommodation provided to one participant does not create an obligation to provide the same accommodation to another participant.
10. Program Schedule Changes
Royalty Speaks may reasonably adjust a Program session date, time, facilitator, delivery platform, or Program schedule when necessary.
If Royalty Speaks reschedules a session, Company will make reasonable efforts to provide a replacement session or reasonable alternative.
A reasonable scheduling modification does not constitute cancellation of the six-week Program and does not create a right to a refund.
