About - Jenni Robbins - Ignite Today

For more than a decade,

Jenni Robbins has worked
with speakers and trainers
to build their businesses.

She managed one of the most successful businesses in the personal development/self-help industry, including launching five $1M+ brands in five years. She built business operations from the ground up, negotiated 6-figure keynote speaking contracts, and managed training seminars for thousands of people. She created and sold new programs from $49 to $100,000 and identified new revenue streams for clients looking to grow their influence and their income.

An accidental entrepreneur at heart, she wouldn't have predicted any of these stats when her career began.

With a Master’s degree in Higher Education and on a path to build leadership programs for college students, Jenni found her way to the personal development/expert industry through a series of right place, right time moments.

After facilitating leadership programs for students around the country, Jenni joined forces with Brendon Burchard in 2006 to host the College Success Bootcamp for high school and college students and their parents.

In 2007, The Burchard Group was created to help experts learn how to get paid for their knowledge. Through live training seminars, online courses and keynote speeches, thought leaders from around the world interacted with The Burchard Group programs to develop skills, build their following and monetize their expertise through speaking, writing and training platforms.

In the span of eight years as Chief Operating Officer of The Burchard Group, Jenni wore (almost) every hat—sales, operations, event production, volunteer management, business strategy, customer service, human resources. She worked with the Who’s Who list of the expert industry—from #1 NYT bestselling authors and global celebrities to up and coming gurus working their way to the top. She put structure to chaos, collaborated with big picture thinkers and turned crazy ideas into reality.

Did you know you could host a personal development seminar in a circus tent?

All of these experiences taught Jenni two important things:

1. It made her heart sing to EMPOWER EXPERTS to share their voice and their mission with the masses.

2. She’s a BUILDER. She loves to create, shape and design businesses with thought leaders who are ready to change the world.

Jenni knows how to get your work out there! I came to Jenni with 470 great to mediocre ideas (well, probably 7 great ideas; who am I kidding?) and she helped me boil them down to their essences, create strategies and an action plan, and then get my ideas out into the world. Specifically I was at a point in my business where I just didn't know which way to go. With simplicity and clarity, Jenni made it possible for me to move forward and get out of that entrepreneurial spin that is easy to fall into and difficult to get out of.

Working with Jenni is hands down the best decision that I ever made in my entrepreneurial career. That is not an overstatement. She has the ability to take my storm of chaos of ideas, directions, visions and opportunities and bring clarity and focus in a way I have never experienced. My notebook of ideas and scattered rabbit trails is now a business plan with goals and milestones, frameworks and tangible products.

Since we started working with Jenni, she has transformed our business. Our message is clearer and more powerful, our business is simpler, our strategy is stronger, our revenue has increased dramatically and we have an unprecedented capacity to scale- which means running our company is a lot more fun! She has the vision of a CEO complemented by a strong ability to execute the small stuff.

I’ve been more productive in the past month than I’ve been in the last six! Jenni has an incredible talent for being warm, supportive and kicking your ass. If you’re ready to scale your business and need structure, guidance, and maybe a confidence boost, she’s your woman.

Jenni Robbins is the best kept secret in America. Jenni’s support and guidance have led me to transition from aspiring entrepreneur with a big idea to business leader with a plan for execution. Through the years, Jenni has helped me clarify my message, build replicable tools of every shape and size, and engage the audience I need to make sure my message is received. And somehow she’s done so in the direct, humorous and loving way that only Jenni can. Jenni has been instrumental in allowing me to flourish as a business leader, become a confident speaker, and helping me do so in a way that is alignment with my goals as a wife and mother.

If I'm being honest, I was a little skeptical. I wondered how we would accomplish so much in such a short amount of time. Within 4 hours I had complete clarity. We identified what I was selling, who my audience would be, how I'd go to market, etc. Here's the thing about Jenni, she knows how to get everything in your head out on paper in sequential order. Her confidence breeds confidence in you, and she has this way of helping you see where you're overcomplicating questions with the easiest of answers. A few weeks later I had sold my first engagement tripling the initial investment. If you have an expertise you want to share, make Jenni your first call and investment.

I'm so on fire! I cleaned out my locker at my office and brought home all my personal effects. I'm going full speed into this as fast and as hard as I can to see where it will go. THANKS for helping bring this side out of me! Me, my wife and my family are all VERY thankful!
