7 SIMPLE RULES to ROCKING YOUR TALK & PROFIT

PLEASE READ ALL SEVEN RULES–even if you think you know them, and they sound obvious, because there’s a difference between knowing something intellectually–and really understanding the BIG WHY that will have you DOING all of these like clock work— which WILL make you more money! 

1.SIMPLE DETAILS MAKE OR BREAK RESULTS
Check the location of your talk, start time, seating arrangement, and temperature of the room. Sounds overly simple? Maybe. But a hot room will result in lower sales, so do yourself a favor and check the basics first! 🙂

2. KNOW YOUR TALK
Even if you’re going to use slides, know your talk. This way if there’s a tech glitch your talk can go on without a hitch!
 
You’ll look and sound more professional, and your audience will thank you.
 
3. ARRIVE EARLY
It sounds like common courtesy and it is, but it will also lead to more sales. Take time to get to know the room, meet a few folks, and learn the audience’s mood, energy level, and top concerns.
 
4. LEARN A FEW NAMES
If you take the time to learn the names of a few people  in the room and use them in your talk when appropriate. “Yes like Steve mentioned earlier…”

This creates a connection between you and the audience, and connection sells.

5. MAKE SURE THERE’s A BREAK
If you are making an offer at the end of your talk– doesn’t matter if its free consultations or a paid program—  be 100% sure that there is a break after your talk so that you can answer questions and collect orders.
A person jumping up right after your talk— and starting to make announcements about lunchtime or the next talk or what have you, WILL feel like wet water being dumped on your hot room!

6. RESPECT AND HONOR YOUR HOST

Doesn’t matter if you’re speaking at a company, group, association or conference….  speak highly of the group and the host.

When you make them look good, they’ll happily make you look good too.

7.  MAKE SURE PEOPLE RESPECT YOUR AUTHORI-TAY

Speaking requires a balance of creating connection with your audience, and commanding the room. Remember that in order to get others to believe in you, YOU have to believe in your first.

So no matter what happens….make sure people respect you and your authority at the front of the room. Its not about being show-offy or bossy.

Its about serving the room at a high level, because every room needs a leader.

And when you’re at the front of the room— you’re it!

>> Walk with your shoulders back and your head head high.

>> Don’t take insults cloaked as “feedback” (in fact don’t take any feedback other than from your coach or mentor)

>> Always stay in control Q&A time and other questions.
