About this event
Join us for an insightful event where we explore the secrets to standing out in the highly competitive speaking industry. With the increasing number of speakers vying for attention, it’s crucial to develop strategies that set you apart and elevate your presence.
We are excited to host two accomplished speakers who will share their expert tips and experiences on how to carve out a unique niche and captivate your audience. Through their diverse perspectives, you will gain valuable insights into:
- Crafting a distinctive personal brand
- Leveraging storytelling to engage and inspire
- Utilising social media and other platforms to build your reputation
- Mastering the art of public speaking to leave a lasting impression
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the best and take your speaking career to the next level. Whether you’re an aspiring speaker or looking to enhance your existing skills, this event is designed to provide you with practical tools and actionable advice.
Our first speaker is our own remarkable National President, Chantal Cornelius with her keynote on Stand Out – or Stand Aside!
Do you stand out as a speaker? Do you really stand out? Or do potential clients struggle to know what makes you different and why they should book you?
As a speaker, you can’t stand out as being the best in your field unless you’re completely clear on what makes you stand out.
We work in a very competitive industry – one in which others are competing for the same speaking gigs as us. What makes you different to the others in your area? What makes you REALLY different? Traditional USPs (Unique Selling Points) do not work for speakers. This session will introduce you to a much better and more effective way of showing your clients and prospects what makes you truly different, helping you to book the speaking engagements you really want.
If you want to stand out in your business, join us at this online event!
