How Speakers Should be Marketing Themselves Now

And for the next 18-24 months

Join this session, for lessons from a global speaker and international speaker agent, as they uncover how to prepare for when conferences come back, and – even more urgently – what we can do right now to make the most of the time until that happens. As professional speakers, we have an enforced layoff to take stock and think deeply about our positioning, marketing, and sales processes.

We need to ensure we get aligned with the “new world” of events that will be totally overshadowed by the effects of COVID-19 for foreseeable future, but with all that said, we can’t afford to take our line out of the water, because that’s one guaranteed way not to be booked!

We will gain:

Exclusive, behind-the-scenes, industry tips from a global keynote agency for how to best navigate the COVID19 crisis
An understanding of why it’s a massive mistake to think you can just do “your usual keynote” on a zoom call – and what to do instead
Lessons in how to evolve your marketing so it’s ready for what buyers in the events industry will be looking for post-coronavirus
Insights and explanations on who buys keynotes, why they buy them, and how you can position yourself as the premium offering in your niche
A crystal-clear plan for sustainable commercial speaking success when some sort of normality returns
