now I'll never forget the first time that I stepped on stage in front of
2,000 people my heart was just like pounding through my chest and it was
literally both the most terrifying and the most invigorating moment of my life
all at the same time and for many years I had this amazing opportunity of being
able to lecture at so many of the top universities all across the country and
actually at this point spoken I had over 300 universities yes one of many careers
I've had in my past I used to lecture at colleges on confidence and relationships
and the way that I used to market my speaking engagements was all based on
video no one's going to hire you for any type of major speaking event without
making sure that you are as good as you say you are so if you're looking to get
more speaking engagements get in front of more people than follow these three
steps because video is a great way to book more speaking agents keep watching
hey there Adam little J from viewership comm where we help you grow your
viewership so he can build your business and this video right here is all about
getting more speaking engagements now maybe you want to just get paid for your
speaking engagements and make a living off of that or alternatively maybe you
have a product or a service something you want to sell from this stage and
just get in front of people because you know that the more people you get in
front of the more income you make the more impact that you have regardless of
how you want to make that happen this three-step process is going to help you
book more speaking engagements using videos so here let's just jump right
into it the step number one is start by giving free speeches what I would do is
reach out to all the YMCA's all around Massachusetts because that's where I
live and I didn't want to have to fly to go go get free speeches but I would say
hey look I'm going to waive my fee to come and speak at your school or your
organization the only thing that I want to do is I want a videotape that speech
and what I did is I spoke at over 30 different YMCAs local youth groups just
places where quite frankly I had an audience I didn't need which one that I
didn't care I just wanted an audience who was engaged in somewhat interested
in what I was talking about and then after giving 30 free speeches a few
things happen number one is I got better at speaking in front of large groups I
became less nervous about it and number two I had enough video yes I videotaped
every single speech I had enough video where I could kind of edit together so
that it looks like I was actually a really good speaker which I wasn't quite
that good of a speaker yet but at least I was able to create a promotional video
that made me look pretty good and pretty experienced which brings me to step
number two I already got ahead of it which is edit those speeches into that
cohesive speaking video chances are since you are just beginning or you
don't have you're not a seasoned professional speaker or a motivational
speaker your speech is going to be a little bit rough so editing is a really
important part of making sure that that speech looks really good and it's going
to get you more speaking engagements and the more speaking engagements you get
the better you get and then before you know it you know you're going to be able
to have a really kick-ass video that markets your speaking and it's going to
like actually really good but for the time being right now if you're just
getting started with speaking chances are you're gonna have to do some really
interesting editing techniques number one is like add a lot of music into it
add a lot of background music like motivational music at certain times and
number two is have really tight editing so in between points if there's an
awkward pause at all switch over edit to something else I
would go so far as I would give the same speech to six different schools and I
would tell a story the same story at all different six schools that I would edit
the best parts of each story put it all together so it looked really good and it
sounded good that's how you can be able to build a really kick-ass video that's
going to help market your speaking business and once you have that video
you can start marketing that video to a lot of different organizations where
you'd like to get either again paid speeches or free speeches whatever your
goals are when it comes to speaking step number three is continue releasing video
content regularly on social platforms what you'll find is of course every time
you get on stage you're gonna become a better speaker at the same time every
time you create a new piece of video content you're going to get better at
creating good content and one thing I noticed over the years of creating a lot
of different videos like hundreds of videos is that every video you create
there's usually one or two things that you say that you're like that's actually
pretty good that's new that's interesting and you want to note those
things right if there's something really interesting or unique that unique that
came out of that video write that down and then after you've had 50 or so
videos released out there you can go back to your best pieces of content put
it all together and now you have a new speech so basically what I'm saying is
the more that you create content the better it's going to help you with your
speaking gage myths so I want to hear from you have you ever used video to get
more speaking gaygent sleeve a comment right there below and also please give
