Speaking is Not The Business - Getting The Gig is The Business!
There are countless opportunities to speak for audiences across America and around the world, and yet most speakers starve. The fact is that the advice offered to speakers, often has nothing to do with why we actually get booked and get paid! In this eye-opening, actionable, and very entertaining session, David Avrin, CSP, Global Speaking Fellow, will dispel common myths about the speaking business and reveal the business strategies and tactics his team employs to keep him booked around the world.
WARNING: this is a practical, tell-it-like-it-is, no-nonsense session that will tell some hard truths to help you build your business and feed your family. If you are fragile, this may not be the right session for you.
In this practical and actionable session you will learn:
● Outbound marketing strategies and tactics to reach meeting planners with a compelling message at the right time.
● The language that kills opportunities and the speaking content that gets booked today
● A specific pitch strategy that gets meeting planners to respond so that you can make your case.
