'I want to get booked to speak!' we hear you cry. We know that it's the biggest challenge facing many of our students here at Your Speaking Career. You have an inspirational story or knowledge to share, you know you deliver great value to your clients - you just need to connect with event organisers.
This week Debra chats to Georgina Kelly, Managing Director of Summit Events. Georgina and her team have been running meetings for 24 years and sourcing multiple speakers for each one - so she knows a thing or two about how to find the right speaker for her audience.
Listen today to discover:
- How and where Georgina finds speakers;
- The different ways of finding industry specialists vs. inspirational and motivational speakers;
- What marketing materials a speaker MUST have in place to capture her attention;
- Why it is important to be available in the bar (but not drinking it dry!);
- How being controversial can be a selling point and why safe isn’t memorable;
- A unique perspective from an events company that organises it's own conferences rather than acting as a supplier for other business.
