Finding, Creating & Delivering a World-Class Speech

Meeting planners start judging speakers the moment the the communication begins. This evaluation is most intense in the 60 to 90 minutes before the speech and the 60 to 90 minutes after the speech. The determination as to whether they ever refer you hinges on how you, the speaker, interacts, networks, and mingles during this period. This all inclusive conversation with our most requested guest, Patrick Snow, will not only provide you with strategies to find, create, and deliver a world class speech, but go in to detail about how you should spend your time during the pre and post speech that will cause planners to fall in love with you and happily refer you to their contacts. Make one wrong move and you may come off as an egotistical "ass" and lose the planner's goodwill forever. Join us as we go behind the scenes and look at what it really takes to secure the high-paid booking, get paid in full (months in advance), have the audience love your speech, and get numerous spin off referral speaking engagements. This call is one you will not want to miss.

• How you should spend your time during the pre and post speech
