*More About This Episode* Public Speaking Tips: 6 Tools to Help You Get Hired as a SpeakerIf you’re serious about being a speaker at any level, here’s my recommended list of what you need to make available to anyone who can book you for an event:

1) A list of potential topics: I always keep an updated list of keynote and workshop sessions I’m capable of doing.

2) Different length bios: I keep short, medium, and long biographies that will not only give the planner an idea of my background and areas of expertise but also allow them to easily use them in the program or on the event website.

3) Your official title and byline: Make sure they know who you are! And don’t forget a “byline” – which is essentially a one-sentence description of you.

5) A short, well-written introduction: You can’t always depend on a conference host or MC to write a good introduction for you, so don’t take chances.

6) Your online and social media links: Conferences often publish your social media and website links in the program or put them on the video screen while you speak.

Don’t wait until you get asked to speak to prepare these items! It may take a while to pull all of this together, so do it now, and you’ll always be ready. Remember – the easier you make it for the people who can hire you as a speaker, the better your chances of getting selected!
