Public
Speaking - Your Turn to Speak at Your Networking Leads Group and Coming Up
with Fresh Ideas
Public speaking at a leads group can be challenging for many. After you've
told the group about what you do in your business, what else can you say? |
To be a person is to have a story to tell.

Have you ever been to a meeting or conference where
there was a keynote speaker? When that speaker was
finished, did you feel enthusiastic, energized, and
confident--or--tired, bored and glad to get out of
there. You have just witnessed the difference between a
so-so speaker and one who gets paid big bucks for what
he does. O yes, I mean 'BIG BUCKS'. There are some
reports of $100,000 to $200,000 for 'in demand'
speakers, for one appearance.
Perhaps this occupation interests you and you think you
could be good at it. It's not a bad way to make a
living. You get expense paid travel, you get to meet
lots of interesting people and you get paid.

Public Speaking To Market Your Business
- What's This Signature Speech Thing All
About?
"Public speaking is a
good way to market my business. Does
anyone know what's the best way to do
that?"
This is the same question
I see posted all over the Internet by
entrepreneurs in every kind of
imaginable business. From massage
therapists to house cleaners, from
coaches to network marketers, everyone
wants to know about putting together a
speech. The good news is the word is
out: public speaking is an efficient way
to get new business. But the question
remains: what's the most effective way
to do that? And who's going to listen to
me? And is this gonna cost me anything?
The answers may surprise
you. I've been speaking in front of
audiences for most of my life. But only
after I started my coaching and
consulting practice did I truly
understand the power of public speaking
to market a business. Since I've put
together what I call my "Signature
Speech," my business has sky-rocketed.
You've been asked to speak for an
audience. However, the event organizer or meeting planner tells you they
can't pay you. Your heart sinks knowing that speaking for free will cost you
in the long run. You think of all the expenses you'll incur gas,
parking, photocopying materials, babysitter and speaking for free
means you won’t be reimbursed for these incidental costs.
Although a free gig can eat into
your bottom line, you don't need to refuse it altogether. If you're still
building your expertise, free gigs can help you to refine your message and
try out new concepts on an eager audience.

How to Use
Public Speaking to Attract Clients
When Robert Middleton moved his marketing consulting practice,
Action Plan Marketing, to Palo Alto, California several years
ago, he started his business from scratch. He had left his
well-established client base several miles away and now had to
find strategies to generate new clients.
Because Middleton had always spoken to promote his business, he
turned to public speaking with a vengeance. He researched local
organizations whose members comprised professional business
owners, his target clientele. He called chambers of commerce,
business groups and others likely to be interested in his
three-hour marketing workshop.
Within a few months, Middleton had spoken at over a dozen
organizations, establishing his reputation as a marketing expert
for professional service firms. He quickly became a known
entity, having personally introduced his business and
credentials to hundreds of prospects.
Seated Presentations - don't
be a sitting duck
At one time or another, your boss has probably
said to you, "Don't get caught sitting down on this one." The problem is, many
sales presentations are made while you're doing exactly that - sitting down.
It's more difficult to be impressive and in control when making a seated
presentation than when standing, say Judy Stein and Marya Holcombe, principals
of Strategic Communications, Inc., a consulting firm in New Haven, Conn. They
believe sales people who don't adjust their delivery style inadvertently put
themselves in the hot seat.
Fortunately, the problem is easily remedied with a few simple modifications.
Here's what Stein and Holcombe suggest:

must in order to market our services to wider audiences.

speaking camps, I thought I'd provide this public
