Event hosts can help you more than you know

Event hosts get asked all the time about who they know that can speak about a topic. If you are speaking at an event, make sure you talk to the host and let them know that you are open to finding more public speaking opportunities. The hosts have seen you in action and after you give a great speech they can give you a fantastic referral in their network. Make sure you are a name that comes up when they are asked by not just interacting with the host solely for the event you are working on. Set yourself up to serve the host in any other way that you can. Listen to episode 59 of Boost Your Sales and Lifestyle to hear how this technique has worked for me.

Talk to other speakers that you share the stage with

Compare notes with the other speakers and see where they have spoken before. This way you can make warm introductions to each other’s network. When you have actually shared the stage with these speakers then you can help each other out with introductions. A warm referral will get you so much further than a cold one, so make sure you help each other out.
