1 Know your audience. Before you send out any pitch, you need to do some research on your target audience. 2 Craft your hook. The first impression is crucial when it comes to pitching yourself for speaking opportunities. 3 Showcase your value. 4 Provide evidence. 5 Include a call to action. 6 Here's what else to consider.
Point out something important about the audience or the current setting. Show a compelling visual image. Ask a provocative question. State a fact that is troubling, amusing, or remarkable.
These tips will help ensure your presentation captures your audience's attention, conveys valuable information, and leaves a lasting impression. Know your audience. Prepare. Write a script. Focus on storytelling. Incorporate engaging visuals. Consider accessibility. Practise your delivery. Engage with your audience.
Start with why this person is so impressive -- what wows you about him or her. Say a few words about what the topic is and why it's relevant to the audience. And then explain why now is a particularly good time to hear from this speaker. End with the speaker's name, and start the applause.
How to get speaking engagements Get clear on why you want to speak. Listen to a lot of talks from speakers that you admire. Come up with 3-5 talk ideas. Prepare an outline for each talk idea. Build your event list. Slide into event organizers' DMs. Email your pitch. Turn your outline into a speaker proposal.
Stand up straight, look people in the eye, and smile! Use silence to your advantage. Silences can help you set the pace of your speech and create impact. Practice pausing while you read, breathe slowly, and speak in short phrases.
Good public speakers take the time they need to collect and express their thoughts, without rushing themselves—or letting others rush them. Don't be afraid to give your audience time to internalize critical information; a well-placed pause says a lot.
