Are you a typical public speaker?

Typical public speakers are thrilled at the opportunity to be in front of an audience, yet when they get there, they do little more than vomit information on the audience members. Typical speakers don’t understand the intricate combination of art and science that goes into both a speaker delivering a message and an audience processing that message. The worst part of all this is that the typical public speaker doesn’t realize this. They believe they are amazing. Are you a typical public speaker? Are you willing to stay that way?

You can make a difference in the lives of others

You can be an amazing public speaker … a speaker who masters the three components of an engaging and compelling talk … a speaker who understands the value of focusing on their audience … a speaker who makes a difference in the lives of others.

3 + 1 … it’s what sets you apart from the typical speaker

Most public speakers are concerned with appearing to be knowledgeable or passionate or funny. These are valuable, of course, but they shouldn’t be the focus of a talk.

To convey your information in a way that serves your audiences, you need to know

1. How to craft a message
2. How to use your voice to deliver your message
3. How to use body language to support your delivery

plus

1. It’s all about the audience … always!

When you master 3+1, you’ll move from being a typical speaker to one who serves others!

Public speaking coaching – what’s my investment?

Although the the time and money spent on becoming a better public speaker is always a concern, what should concern you more is all that you forfeit by not becoming a better public speaker.

• How much money have you lost when, after a speaking gig, you’re not referred to other organizations, companies, or event planners?
• How much have you lost when, after a speaking gig, no audience members connect with you to hire you?
