Part VI: Different Paths, Different Kinds of Seminar Speaking Success
Part VI: Different Paths, Different Kinds of Seminar Speaking Success:
Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with being a great speaker. I never get tired of hearing that from people at the end of my presentation. Who wouldn't mind hearing enthusiastic praise about their speaking?
But yesterday, I said I'd pull back the curtain and reveal the problem with "the path of the great speaker", and here it is.
Being a great speaker does not translate to making sales, gaining new clients, converting prospects, and putting more money into your bank account.
If you are involved in organizations that help you to be a better speaker, what I just said may be very hard for you to accept, but it's 100% true. I know from my own experience, and the experience of many who belong to those well-known organizations that hand out awards and designations for becoming an accomplished public speaker.
I know quite a number of great speakers that are broke and can't get their business off the ground. All the accolades and applause in the world is not going to put food on your table.
Tomorrow I'm going to tell you why, see you then.
