(Especially If It Meant You Could Create A Six Figure A Year Additional Income Stream!)
Okay entrepreneur before you even begin to start absorbing this proven material. (Which comes to you via my friend, coach and mentor.) The one and only Austin Iuliano of austiniuliano.com fame.
Before you can even begin to realistically consider whether or not you can build a six figure a year or more income from public speaking. You’ve already heard the shocking facts, correct? In America alone. The average person, (translated) primarily none business owners.
They currently rate the fear of public speaking above the fear of dying. Say what? Nod your head cadets because it’s true.
So with that as a launching an all too common launching point. Before you can actually consistently earn a dime as a public speaker. You’ve gotta develop some bankable public speaking skills.
And who better to share their proven expertise than someone currently doing it. Huh? That’s “why” I’m sharing this particular post with you. Because Austin has paid products and services to help assist you get going the right way and then some…
Entrepreneur Sadly Public Speaking Is Still One Of The Most Untapped Marketing Opportunities There Is!
As you look at the image of my Personal Brand Building Expert friend, coach and mentor Austin Iuliano, who specializes in helping major world wide recognized corporations further enhance their brands by strategically breaking through all the constant noise of social media.
While he sits there looking incredibly confident and satisfied. It was not that along ago according to him. When he had just lost a thriving start up service business.
And briefly contemplated temporarily moving back home with his mom. Instead he and his girlfriend decided their best move was to pack everything he/they considered valuable at the time. And headed to of all places (The Big Apple) New York city. Say what?
And get this. He/they decided on this questionable course of action. Even though upon his arrival. Neither one of them had a cushy six figure a year job with (to die for) mega benefits waiting for them.
In fact upon their arrival in the Big Apple. They were forced to temporarily call his car home. Can you imagine one person let alone two, trying to cope with all of this? While they’re facing the grim reality of having to temporarily call his car home.
No “Four Seasons” accommodations here. Anyway, since neither one of them knew a soul in New York city. And couldn’t just text someone and instantly be sleeping on an extremely soft mattress. Nor binge watching Netflix or Hulu etc.
Let’s just say they didn’t get off to an ideal start. And on top of all of that. Neither one of them had a clue about “where” their next meal was coming from. (And you though you had some unsurmountable challenges.)
So How The Heck Does A Guy Go From Homeless And Temporarily Sleeping In His Car To Mega Rock Star Personal Brand Building Expert? (And Earning At Least Six Figures A Year Doing Public Speaking!)
You gotta admit entrepreneur this is one heck of a story, is it not? And rest assured his six figure plus public speaking venture didn’t just happen over night. No way. But if you go to his blog, he lays out at least seven proven strategies you and I can and definitely should start implementing right now.
If you’re serious and laser focused on building a six figure a year and beyond public speaking income. (Obvious disclaimer: Neither my expert coach and mentor nor myself is guaranteeing just because you follow his proven advice and implement it to the tee. You’re gonna earn a dime trying to become a public speaker. But it certainly does dramatically increase your odds of positive things happening much faster.
1.) First: Austin strongly recommends when you’re just starting out looking for public speaking opportunities. Start small and local and don’t initially look to get paid. Instead feel your way around the entire process. Find your voice.
Especially if you haven’t or your not yet comfortable speaking in front of larger audiences. (It definitely takes some practice to get comfortable.)
2.) Second: Next as often as possible volunteer to help out in any meaningful way for local events. Organizers, but especially new organizers will definitely appreciate it.
And this way you get personally introduced to the key and most influential local organizers. So whenever they need experienced speakers to help fill their events. Your name and specific expert will be at or near the top of their lists.
You Definitely Don’t Have To Conquer The Entire World Right Of The Gate! (There’s Plenty Of Time For That!)
3.) Third: Be sure you utilize online resources like meetup.com and eventbrite. And looking for all of the relevant speaking opportunities in your local area. And getting to know and power networking with the most influential local organizers -is a proven way gradually become a sought after insider in your local market.
While you continue to build your portfolio and generate potentially bank account filling testimonials.
4.) Fourth: Austin also strongly recommends. Whether you’re getting paid to speak or not. Each time you do. Especially if anyone gives you some positive feedback on any kind. Get their permission to (preferably) video record their comments.
And if at all possible have someone you know like and trust video record at least some of your talk or workshop etc. And start showcasing these comments by individuals or promotors etc. And including them in future online marketing materials of any kind.
Both Public And Virtual Speaking Will Remain In Extremely High Demand! (Especially Since So Many Aspiring Entrepreneurs Have A Phobia About Doing It!)
5.) Fifth: He also strongly suggests you create some type of dedicated self hosted website or blog etc. And regularly post your video testimonials and positive audio comments on it. This way you have a dedicated place of digital real estate.
Which can’t be easily shutdown. The way your social media accounts can be.
6.) Sixth: As you steadily build and establish your brand. So much so to the point your name being mentioned as either the keynote or one of the featured speakers helps fill events. And both you and these potential organizers recognize this fact.
Austin recommends at least testing to see if it makes economic sense to being partially or fully compensated from a percentage of the front end ticket sales. And perhaps the remainder on your sales generated from the stage.
7.) Seventh: And finally.. (as far as this introductory post is concerned.) He also strongly recommends as often as possible get (preferably) video testimonials from key influential organizers after every time you speak. (specially if you’re speaking for free or an extremely low front end fee.)
He recommends you and I start here. And if you think you’d definitely like to go further faster. You can and definitely should invest in his more expansive, (life changing) products and services.
Hopefully you now have a much deeper understanding and better appreciation for “why” you definitely need to develop your public speaking skills.
