Robin Banks Showreel: Mind Power, Personal Mastery and High-Energy Transformation

A fast-paced glimpse into Robin Banks’s signature Mind Power philosophy, demonstrating how disciplined mindset practices, energy, and action drive personal and organisational transformation.

This 3-minute showreel presents Robin Banks as a dynamic, high-impact international speaker whose work centres on Mind Power, personal mastery, and behavioural change. He opens by clarifying a major misconception: Mind Power is not positive thinking, nor is it about forcing optimism. Instead, it is a daily discipline that requires consistent mental training and deliberate action. He reinforces the principle that if you continue repeating old behaviours, you inevitably repeat old results — a core idea many people overlook.

Robin describes the excitement he feels when speaking to large audiences, where collective energy elevates the learning environment. He explains that his programmes are fundamentally about teaching people a system for taking control of their minds, shifting their internal state, and changing the reality they create. He emphasises the role of the subconscious mind as the “grand master,” driving most of a person’s manifested outcomes, and highlights how both corporate teams and front-line workers respond equally to his message.

Clips of participant testimonials highlight Robin’s relatability, humour, and powerful stage presence. Individuals describe him as dynamic, inspiring, and able to connect with everyone — from cleaners and cashiers to executives and managers. They comment on the “energy” in the room and how his message quickly influences both personal and workplace performance.

Robin concludes by sharing his belief that the future is extraordinarily bright, and that success is a responsibility. He argues that personal success empowers individuals to uplift others, whereas failure helps no one. The reel closes with his call for people to adopt disciplined mental practices that support action, possibility, and growth.

Talent FAQ's

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

Virtual speaking appearances can indeed offer cost savings compared to in-person events. Virtual speaking rates are often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates due to factors such as reduced travel expenses and logistics. This makes virtual events a cost-effective alternative for organizations looking to book speakers within a budget.

Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

  • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
  • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
  • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
