Make Money Speaking - Public Speaking Video

Imagine that you could get up and tell your life story to a group and walk away with a nice, big fat $5,000 check.

That's the dream that most public speaking training's would sell you on, and it's the dream that many, many speakers and wanna-be speakers have.

But what's the reality? If you're a new speaker or thinking about being one, here's something you should know:

Most "professional speakers" are being supported by their spouse, or their full-time day-job.

Before you set out to become a professional speaker - or even if you already are on that path - watch this eye-opening video on how to make money speaking.

Public Speaking & Your Vocal Cords

Once you start doing some seminars and public speaking, you're going to become very aware of your vocal cords.

Very aware.

You might even lose your voice, or find your throat getting tired or sore or your voice hoarse after speaking for an hour or more.

I've got a few tips for you on vocal development, and an "inside secret" that professional speakers have been using for years to keep their voice from going out on them - check out this blog post and video I just put up on taking proper care of your voice:

Public Speaking Humor

So, it turns out you're just not very funny.

In fact, you don't have a single funny bone in your entire body.

When you tried humor in your public speaking, seminar, or presentation, it flopped badly.

Well, I've got a solution for you - rather than tell you how to be instantly funny, I'm going to show you:

Watch this video on public speaking humor, and prepare to be instantly hilarious - yes, you!

New Public Speaking Training Video

What do people remember most when you do a public speaking gig or presentation?

How can you maximize your chances of being remembered at all?

If you do any kind of speaking or presenting, you have to accept that people are looking right at you, but their attention is wandering.

I already showed you a video on how to wake them up and make a point - and be remembered - combine that technique with the technique I'm teaching you today, and you will be remembered and you will get them to remember what you want them to remember.

Watch my public speaking training video right now:

Presentation Skills & Conveying Expertise

Just about anytime you get up in front of people and speak, you're going to need to convey an aura of expertise.

Most people try to accomplish this the old-fashioned way... by telling the group about your accomplishments and abilities.

And frankly, that's fine and does work - and in fact I recommend you do that.

But here's a secret trick for you - you can convey an aura of expertise without even uttering a word.

That can come in very, very handy if you're fielding tough questions, have a "prove it to me" audience, or you're sharing facts with the group.

You need to be believable, and experts are often seen as believable.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then I suppose a one-minute video must be worth at least 10,000 words...

My point is, you can go watch a video on this presentation skill to convey expertise and you'll see the secret of how to do it right now - the good news is, it's very simple and easy to learn and master!

Public Speaking Home Study Course

Typically, if you go out looking for a public speaking home study course, what you'll find is a lot of hyped-up info on "how you too can make zillions just by flapping your lips..." and other such drivel.

I'm not sure how people sleep at night making those kinds of promises when they know it's not true... well, come to think of it, they probably sleep great on their extra-large, oversize, super-expensive king sized bed paid by sales of their hyped-up course.

I also have a public speaking home study course, but it's a real, down-to-earth "kit" for business owners, entrepreneurs, and solo-professionals who want to generate and convert leads in the fastest, easiest, and most fun way possible.

Is that hype? Nope - one of my students recently did a seminar, total costs were $200 for the room, plus 2 dozen doughnuts - she's pulled in 3 commissions so far at $3,800 each!

I don't promise my students they'll fly first class all over the world and be famous or any hoopla like that.

But I do know that if they just follow my proven system for speaking & seminar success, they'll be able to go out and turn on a flood of new business - yes, just by flapping their lips!

You can find out more about my public speaking home study course for business owners, business professionals & entrepreneurs here:

5 Minute Stage Fright Cure

It might seem impossible to cure fear of public speaking in 5 minutes.

It might seem ridiculous to propose that you - yes, you! - could conquer stage fright in less time than it takes to eat your lunch today.

Risking ridicule and outrage, I'm going to propose exactly that.

And I'm not only going to tell you how, I'm going to show you!

Go watch this video on my 5 minute stage fright cure:
