How Speaking For Free Can Grow Your Business
Speakers are often hired because of their story. Whether you’re just beginning to speak or adding speaking to your existing business, you should be prepared and willing to speak for free. There’s actually a lot to be gained by speaking at events for free, so it’s not all bad.
Create a Speaker’s One-Sheet That Will Grab Them From the Get-Go
When an event planner or other meeting/conference organizer is searching for a speaker for their upcoming event, they will likely receive dozens or even hundreds of inquiries to review. If you want to make it to their shortlist, you have to find a way to grab their attention from the moment they first see your email pitch in their inbox.
Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone
What made you become an entrepreneur? What drove you to take that risk, step out of your comfort zone and leap into the world of business ownership? If you are like me, you became an entrepreneur because you believed you had something worth sharing. You knew you had knowledge, talents and skills that people needed, and you knew you could make a difference in their lives by sharing that with them.
You Need Professional Help!
When we think of successful speakers, our first thoughts naturally drift towards the likes of Zig Ziglar, Jack Canfield and Tony Robbins, to name a few. They are the top-dollar, high-profile speakers who have become icons in the professional speaking industry.
