If you plan on speaking in-person this year, you’ll want to listen to this entire episode. 

 

I'm sharing with you the 3 key skills you need now to:

• Get selected as a speaker
• Stand out by delivering the exact content your audience wants
• Make money, whether it’s from paid engagements or by generating leads and sales from people in your audience

 

I recently returned from an in-person speaking engagement and put these skills into practice.

 

Here are the results I got *that same day*:

• New client (worth $5,000+)
• New keynote speaking invitation (worth $5,000+)

 

The old model of public speaking no longer works.

Content dumps, information overload, and one-way communication don’t cut it anymore.

Your audience expects more - and you have an incredible opportunity to set yourself apart as a dynamic speaker.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The old model vs. the new model of public speaking
• Myths you’ve internalized that may keep you from embracing the new model
• The 3 key skills you need now as a speaker
• How you are perfectly positioned to use the new model of public speaking to connect with your audiences and attract bigger and better speaking opportunities
• How we can help you shift from information presenter to transformational speaker
