Carefully Handpicked Speakers With Your Problems In Mind
We take pride on who we choose to speak at No Fluff Fest.
Those who we choose are ones we KNOW will bring the power and motivation you need to kickstart your year.
We aim to have a range of different speakers:
Student Recruitment
Mindset / Motivation
Marketing
Become Someone Who Takes Action, Not Stand Still.
This isn’t an event where you hide behind a laptop, take a few notes, and head home unchanged.
You’ll be involved, challenged, and part of the conversations that actually shape how enrolments happen.
If you want practical ideas, honest discussion, and to learn alongside people who are facing the same pressures as you, this is for you.
Attendees at No Fluff Fest don’t spectate.
They participate.
Become A Bigger Part of the Action
This isn’t for brands that want to sit quietly behind a laptop and hope someone wanders past.
Our sponsor zones are built for interaction, conversation, and visibility with the people who actually influence enrolments.
If you work with schools, agents, or education providers and want proper face time, real discussions, and meaningful connections, this is where it happens.
Sponsors don’t observe No Fluff Fest.
They take part.
Hello, I'm Nicola Lutz
I’ll be your host for No Fluff Fest, and one of the speakers.
This will be the fourth  No Fluff Fest, and it exists for a very simple reason.
Too many brilliant schools, language providers and agents are still losing enrolments not because of a lack of demand, but because of unclear processes, hesitant conversations, poor follow-up and a general discomfort with anything labelled “sales”.
I’ve spent over three decades inside this sector. Not looking in from the outside. I work with teams every day on their 'sales' - pipelines, funnels, enquiries, closes! I am known as the Selling Education expert and as such, I am 100% in touch with what YOUR event should give you. I aim to deliver and I'm chuffed to say our last two events SOLD OUT so we're doing it right!
No Fluff Fest was created without love and huge care.
Not with motivational fluff.
No sponsors pitching from the stage.
And with practical, ethical, commercially sound approaches that actually work in education.
Â
Why me? Why No Fluff Fest?
I run No Fluff, a consultancy focused entirely on helping schools and education agents increase student enrolments, more efficiently, and without compromising care or integrity.
I’m a founding fellow of the Institute of Sales Professionals, an award-winning mentor, and the author of the Amazon bestselling book Spend Less, Sell More. I’m also a Director at StudyTravel, and host of the Selling Education podcast.
Most importantly, I work in this space every day.
I see what’s changing.
I see where teams are stuck.
And I see what genuinely moves the needle.
I am not a marketing person that thinks sales is the same thing. I am a professional, trained, recognised and practising sales in education echoey single day.
No Fluff Fest brings together the best of that experience.
I curate the speakers personally. Some from inside the sector, some from outside it, all chosen because they understand behaviour, decision-making, communication and conversion. Add to that experienced marketers, BDMs and admissions professionals, all in one room, and you get something very different from a standard conference.
This is a working event.
You’ll leave with clearer thinking, sharper systems, better conversations, and actions you can take back to the office the very next day.
If you’re responsible for recruitment, enrolments, admissions or growth in international education, this event was built for you.
And yes, it’s fun.
But it’s fun with a point.
You won’t want to miss it.
