BECOME IMPOSSIBLE TO REPLACE IN 2026
OFFCON 2026:
UNFIREABLE!
STAY RELEVANT, STAY CHOSEN
Clients are changing. AI is accelerating. The market is rewarding freelancers who bring more than tasks.
OFFCON 2026 is the one-day conference built to help Filipino freelancers stay relevant, raise their value, and become the kind of talent clients fight to keep.
July 11, 2026 | 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM
Winford Hotel, Manila
The freelancing industry is reorganizing.
Not slowly. Not eventually. Right now.
Clients are restructuring teams.
Workflows are being automated.
Roles that were stable for years are being phased out or reduced.
AI tools now execute in seconds what used to take hours of human effort.
Content. Research. Admin support. Data processing. Customer communication.
The tasks that built many freelancing careers are now the most vulnerable to replacement.
This is not a future scenario. It is the current reality. And the question is no longer "will this affect me?"
THE REAL QUESTION IS:
What is your work actually worth when the market no longer needs people to do what machines can do faster?
You are not alone in asking this.
Across the Philippines, thousands of freelancers are navigating the same uncertainty.
Workloads shrinking.
Contracts ending.
Skills aging faster than expected.
But here is what mostpeople are missing: Not every freelancer is at risk. Only the ones who stop evolving.
The freelancers thriving right now are NOT ALWAYS the most talented.
They are the ones who adapted first
They became more than available. They became essential.
🛑
They stopped selling hours and started delivering outcomes.
🚫
They stopped waiting for instructions and started solving business problems.
🔍
They stopped fearing AI and started using it to multiply their output.
🚨
They stopped offering random services and only focused where they create the most value.
That is the shift from replaceable to unfireable.
And the people who made that shift did not need years. They needed direction.
That is what OFFCON 2026 is built for.
A one-day conference designed to help Filipino freelancers understand where the market is going and how to stay ahead of it.
This is about what matters now:
How to stay relevant in an AI-driven market.
How to increase your value to clients.
How to think beyond tasks.
How to future-proof your career.
How to position yourself for better income.
You leave with direction, confidence, and a plan.
July 11, 2026 | Winford Hotel, Manila | Live + Virtual
By the end of the day, the confusion stops.
You become unfireable, relevant, and chosen.
Identify what parts of your current work are becoming low-value
So you can invest your time where it actually counts.
Double down on what clients will gladly pay more for now
So you can build around real market demand.
Learn how to leverage AI instead of being replaced by it
So you work faster, smarter, and stronger.
How to communicate value beyond tasks
So you stop competing on price and position yourself better.
Know what your smartest next move should be
So you move with direction and intentional decisions.
Build a "Hireable" network and stay relevant
So you meet high-level connections and build network
If you want to be unfireable, this is for you.
The market is evolving faster than most freelancers can keep up with.
You should be here if:
You are NOT starting from zero.
You have clients, experience, and a track record.
You see others landing better clients. Commanding higher rates. Building offers that did not exist two years ago.
You are wondering whether you are still competitive or have been so focused on delivering that you forgot to evolve.
You have tried to close the gap. Courses. Tutorials. Posts. But the more you consume, the less clear it gets.
What you need is not more information.
What you need is a CLEAR ANSWER to one question: how do I become the kind of freelancer that clients CANNOT afford to lose?
If that resonates, OFFCON 2026 is built for you.
What Happens When Filipinos Walk Into A Laurus Trainings Room
Money Mastery Workshop is back by demand. And every time we run a Laurus Trainings event, the same thing happens. People walk into a room with questions and walk out with answers. Here’s what they say.
Different rooms. Different facilitators. Same results.
People walk in carrying questions that have been bothering them for a long time and walk out with clarity and actionable steps that they can immediately apply.
The Speakers for OFFCON 2026
Every speaker at OFFCON 2026 was chosen for one reason: they are practitioners.
They do not teach what they read. They teach what they do, what they have built, and what they have survived in this market. This is not a stage for motivational talks.
This is a room for real strategies from people who are actually in the trenches.
Nikki Jurado-Mancilla, NFG
Penguin Random House Bestselling Author. Trader. Mentor.
If you've ever felt stuck choosing between making a living and actually living, this keynote is for you.
Nikki is living proof you don't have to pick. With 10+ years trading the markets and 9 published books (including the bestselling The Wisdom of YOLO), she's taught 10,000+ students worldwide and personally mentored the top 1% of traders in Southeast Asia.
She makes the complex feel simple. The intimidating feel exciting. The future feel actually within reach.
In a year where AI is rewriting the rules, Nikki shows up to OFFCON to answer the question keeping a lot of us up at night: Paano ka mananatiling unfireable kahit pabago-bago ang laro?
Expect a session practical enough to act on Monday. Big enough to shift the next 10 years of your career.
Marjorie "Marge" Aviso-Baynosa
CEO & President, Telework PH. Built 1 to 1,600+ in 7 years.
If you've ever wondered why some freelancers get kept and others get dropped, this session is the one you can't afford to miss.
Marge isn't guessing what clients want. She hires them. Trains them. Replaces them when they're not working. As CEO of Telework PH, she's deployed Filipino talent for international clients and scaled her company from 1 person to over 1,600 in 7 years.
So when she talks about what makes a freelancer indispensable, she's speaking from the other side of the table. The side that signs the checks and decides who stays.
Her message is direct: AI is replacing tasks fast. If your value is "I can do this task," you're easy to replace. If your value is "I help your business grow," you stay.
Expect a session that strips away the noise and shows you exactly how to become unfireable.
John Vensaint "JV" Relampago
Founder, Go High Level Champs PH & System24/7. GHL Certified Admin.
If you're scared AI is coming for your freelance income, this session is your wake-up call (and your way out).
JV started where most of you are. No connections. No audience. No roadmap. Just overthinking and wondering if this freelance thing would actually work. He figured out fast that hardworking is no longer enough. Clients want people who can solve problems, build systems, and create real business results.
So he learned funnels, automation, CRM, and AI implementation. Now he runs two companies and trains thousands of Filipinos to do the same.
His message is simple: AI doesn't replace freelancers. It replaces freelancers who refuse to adapt.
Expect live demos, real walkthroughs, and a clear path to evolve from task-based VA to problem-solver, builder, and system thinker. The kind of freelancer businesses can't afford to lose.
CJ Cajoles
Founder, Online Filipino Freelancers (410K+ members). CEO, Kopify PH.
If you've ever felt seen as a Filipino freelancer, there's a good chance CJ had something to do with it.
CJ started as a freelancer in 2011. From a handful of members, she grew Online Filipino Freelancers into one of the largest work-from-home communities in the world, now over 410,700 strong. She's coached 5,000+ Filipinos in e-commerce and entrepreneurship, built Kopify PH into a revolutionary coffee brand selling millions of boxes, and trained as a Certified World-Class Coach under Blair Singer (advisor to Robert Kiyosaki).
She's been featured on GMA News, ANC, TV5, Philippine Star, and Philippine Daily Inquirer.
But here's why she takes the OFFCON stage: she saw this shift coming before most of us did. And she built OFF so no Filipino freelancer would have to face it alone.
This is her room. And she has something to say.
Joana Marie Lazaro
CEO, Laurus Trainings. 17+ Years in Transformational Education.
If you're stuck in panic mode and don't know what to do next, this session is the reset you need.
Joana knows what it feels like to feel behind. She grew up in difficult circumstances, stopped schooling to help support her family, and spent years trying to "catch up" in life. Even after professional success, the doubt didn't fully disappear. So when she talks about adapting through fear and uncertainty, she's not theorizing.
For 17+ years, she's organized and facilitated transformational programs that have impacted thousands of Filipinos across money, business, leadership, and self-mastery.
Her message cuts through the noise: AI replaces tasks. It doesn't replace people who think, communicate, lead clients, and drive results.
Expect a session that helps you stop reacting emotionally and start positioning strategically. The kind of clarity that turns "I don't know what to do" into one clear next move.
Confusion is expensive. Guessing what skill to learn next costs time. Undervaluing yourself costs income. Ignoring AI costs relevance. Waiting too long costs opportunity.
Sometimes one clear day saves six lost months.
You will be in a room full of people who get it. Same struggles. Same hunger to figure things out.
Past attendees describe it differently. But the feeling is the same:
"Na-call out ako in a good way."
"Parang na-reset utak ko."
"Mas klaro na ngayon kung anong next step ko."
"Hindi siya yung typical na seminar. May laman talaga."
By the end of the day, you will not just feel motivated.
You will feel clear. And that clarity is what changes everything.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DO NOTHING?
Another six months of undercharging. Another six months of learning the wrong skills. Another six months watching the market move while you stay busy. Another six months making your comeback harder than it needs to be.
Doing nothing has a cost too.
Increase your rate by PHP 150/hour after attending. That can mean thousands more per month. Land one better client through stronger positioning.
That can return many times your ticket price. One smart shift can outperform months of guessing.

The Questions Worth Answering Before You Decide
If it matters to your money, it’s worth asking. Here are the most common questions about the OFFCON 2026.
What exactly is OFFCON 2026: Unfireable?
OFFCON 2026 is a one-day hybrid conference designed for Filipino freelancers who want to stay relevant and stay chosen in an AI-driven market. It brings together practitioners, industry leaders, and community builders who will share real strategies on how to raise your value, position yourself beyond tasks, and become the kind of talent clients fight to keep.
When and where is it happening?
OFFCON 2026 will be held on July 11, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM at Winford Hotel, Manila. You can join us live in person or virtually via Zoom from anywhere in the world.
How does the hybrid setup work?
In-person attendees get the full OFFCON experience, including all talks, networking, and activities at Winford Hotel. Virtual attendees access the main event through Zoom, with all talks and activities streamed live. VIP and Virtual Pass holders also receive access to recordings of selected sessions after the event.
Is OFFCON 2026 right for me?
OFFCON 2026 is for freelancers who are not starting from zero. If you have clients, experience, and a track record, but feel the market shifting under your feet, this event is built for you. It is also for freelancers who want to move from being task-doers to becoming problem-solvers and indispensable partners to their clients.
I have been freelancing for years. Will I still get value from this?
Yes. In fact, this event was designed with experienced freelancers in mind. The longer you have been in the industry, the more important it becomes to evolve. OFFCON helps you identify which parts of your work are becoming low-value and where to invest your time, skills, and positioning next.
I am still new to freelancing. Should I attend?
If you are early in your freelancing journey, OFFCON gives you a clearer view of where the industry is going and what it actually takes to build a sustainable career today. You will leave with direction that most freelancers spend years figuring out on their own.
Will the event teach me how to use AI tools?
You will get practical insights on leveraging AI in your freelance work, including live demos and walkthroughs from speakers like JV Relampago. However, the bigger focus is on how to think, communicate, and position yourself in ways that AI cannot easily replace.
Can I not just learn this on YouTube?
You can find pieces of this information online, but OFFCON gives you something YouTube cannot: a curated, focused day with practitioners who are actively building in this market, real conversations with peers facing the same shifts, and the clarity that comes from stepping out of your daily grind to think strategically about your career. Confusion is expensive. One clear day often saves six lost months
What is included in each ticket?
General Admission includes access to all talks and activities, one raffle ticket, and an exclusive discount voucher for a future Laurus or OFF event. VIP Admission includes everything in GA plus priority front-row seating, a VIP swag bag (notebook, eco tote, pen), two raffle tickets, and access to recordings of selected talks. Virtual Pass includes Zoom access to all talks, a digital fillable notebook, one raffle ticket, and the same discount voucher.
Are there discount codes available?
Yes. Please use the discount codes appearing on the checkout page.
How do I register?
Click any of the ticket buttons on this page to proceed to registration. You will receive a confirmation email with your ticket details and event instructions shortly after completing your purchase.
What is the refund policy?
All ticket sales are final and non-refundable. Tickets are transferable to another attendee upon written request to our team at least 7 days before the event.
Will I get session recordings?
VIP Admission and Virtual Pass holders receive access to recordings of selected talks after the event. General Admission holders will have the live event experience but will not receive recordings.
I am too busy. Why should I block off a full day?
Because the cost of staying busy with the wrong things is higher than the cost of one focused day. Another six months of undercharging, learning the wrong skills, or watching the market move past you adds up fast. Many past attendees recover their ticket investment many times over by raising their rates or landing one better client after attending.
Still Have Questions?
If you have any other questions, please reach out to our team at [email protected] and we will be happy to help you decide if OFFCON 2026 is the right fit for you.
