A private, confidential
networking forum for member speakers.
Gentle self-promotion of yourself
is encouraged, but flaming and spamming (blatant advertising)
will not be tolerated.
For now this group is limited
to member speakers only. We may start a separate list for speaker
bureau owners, other speaker agents, and meeting planners ...
later.
Some of the topics we can discuss:
What else are you doing to
generate paid speaking engagements for yourself?
Are you listed in other speaker's
bureau rosters as well? What is your experience?
What's your experience giving
teleclasses?
What's your experience giving
email classes and seminars?
Do you offer finders fees to
other speakers for referrals that bring you business?
How do you help meeting planners
increase attendance?
How are you prepared for emergencies
when you travel, at work?
Do you have an evacuation plan
when a disaster strikes?
Who do you ask to replace you
when you can't appear to speak?
What would you like to receive
as a speaker gift? What was the best speaker gift you received?
You must
agree to the following before you are permitted to join the group:
Confidentiality is
very important here: copying or distributing messages to others
not on the list is not permitted, nor is posting someone else's
message on a web site without their written permission. Any member
found doing this will be banned from the discussion. Each post
carries the copyright of the sender who created it, assuming
all content was original material. Also, reprinting copyrighted
material by another author without permission is not accepted.
