In addition to her consulting work, Robbie is a sought-after keynote speaker, presenting at major conferences, association meetings, trade shows, and elite universities worldwide, as well as to private audiences at some of the world’s most well-known companies. She brings insights on subscription pricing and membership models that help businesses drive predictable, recurring revenue.
