Signature keynotes

What your audience walks away with

  • Outcome

    The 10X Rule

    The keynote built on his bestselling book, and the idea most associated with his name. Grant makes the case that most goals are set too low and pursued with too little action, then gives teams a practical way to multiply both. It is a talk about ambition and execution: how to size a target properly and commit the level of effort it genuinely requires, instead of settling for average by default.

  • Sell or Be Sold

    His core sales keynote, drawn from decades on the floor and the book of the same name. Grant treats selling as a fundamental business and life skill, and walks teams through conviction, handling objections and rejection, disciplined follow-up, and shortening the sales cycle. Built for sales organizations that want more than motivation: a usable approach to closing.

  • Scaling a Business & Revenue Growth

    An operator's look at how companies actually grow. Grant connects sales, marketing, people, and leadership into a single picture of expansion, and speaks candidly about the disciplines and decisions behind building an organization. Well suited to founder summits, leadership retreats, and franchise or dealer networks.

  • Real Estate Investing Fundamentals

    Grant shares the philosophy and fundamentals behind his approach to building wealth through real estate, with a focus on mindset, patience, and long-term thinking rather than shortcuts. A strong fit for investor, finance, and entrepreneur audiences who want the principles behind the practice.

  • Personal Branding & Marketing

    How attention is built and used. Grant speaks on visibility, content, and using media and social platforms to build a brand and a pipeline, drawn from building one of the largest personal followings in business. Useful for entrepreneurs, agents, and teams whose growth depends on being known.

The story

Who Grant actually is

Grant Cardone is an entrepreneur, sales trainer, real estate investor, and author whose work on sales and ambition has reached a global audience. Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, in 1958, he studied accounting at McNeese State University and began his career in sales, an apprenticeship on the floor that became the foundation of everything he later taught.

He built his reputation first as a sales trainer, founding Cardone Training Technologies, whose programs have been used by companies and individuals around the world. He went on to found Cardone Capital, a real estate investment firm focused on multifamily property, and to build a portfolio of business ventures spanning training, media, and live events. Along the way he became a bestselling author, most notably of The 10X Rule: The Only Difference Between Success and Failure, which introduced the goal-setting and execution framework now tied to his name, alongside Sell or Be Sold, If You're Not First, You're Last, and Be Obsessed or Be Average.

Cardone reached a wider audience through television, including Discovery Channel's Undercover Billionaire, and through one of the largest personal followings of any business figure, with millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and other platforms. He hosts large-format live training events under his 10X banner and remains an active voice in national business media.

Today Grant speaks to sales organizations, leadership teams, founders, and entrepreneurs worldwide. On stage he is direct, high-energy, and practical, translating decades of selling and operating into a framework audiences can apply immediately. He is based in Florida, where he continues to run his companies and produce business and sales content.
