3 Value Bombs
1) If you want to be able to get paid to speak, you have to build the credibility and stand out from other people so they pay you.
2) If you’re that person who’s nervous or terrified of public speaking, it’s really important to work with the right person. It’s important to get a good coach or a mentor or somebody who can help you do it the right way.
3) If you’re an entrepreneur, or you have a cause or a message you want to get out there, then there’s nothing quite like getting on a stage in terms of credibility and reach.

[7:34] – Leveraging opportunities and achievements to get more stages.

[16:25] – Is there enough room for more influencers for the coming years?

- It is easy for somebody to make themselves appear like somebody they’re not. We need more honest influencers.
[20:18] – What if we’re uncomfortable talking on stages?
- Over time you can learn the craft as well as anybody who’s been comfortable speaking on a stage from day one.
- If you’re that person who’s nervous or terrified of public speaking, it’s really important to work with the right person. It’s important to get a good coach or a mentor or somebody who can help you do it the right way.
- Think about somebody’s life you’ve impacted, and realize that what you’re about to do is about them and not about you.
- It’s very possible to start as uncomfortable and get so comfortable that you actually decide this is going to be a part of your legacy.
[24:51] – Speaking, writing and being a guest on podcasts — does that work for entrepreneurs, or is it just beneficial for speakers and coaches?
- It’s equally important and beneficial for all of the above!
- If you’re an entrepreneur, or you have a cause or a message you want to get out there, then there’s nothing quite like getting on a stage in terms of credibility and reach.
- There are several ways as an entrepreneur to leverage a stage to build brand awareness and to bring more attention to your cause.
