Monetize Your Message: HOW to profit WILDLY in the new world of Speaking - Part ONE
During the golden age of the speaking industry, speakers found themselves being paid to motivate and inspire audiences all over our nation and beyond. Bureau agents presented us to perfect clients and meeting planners wouldn't think of bringing in an inexperienced "green" speaker for an event. We were valued and valuable. Companies and organizations had large training budgets that they would "lose" if they didn't "use". Oh, yes. Business was good. Now, we are seeing a new set of circumstances entirely....long-standing conferences being cancelled due to low participation.... Companies required to justify every $$ they spend are finding it hard to demonstrate the ROI of bringing in a motivational speaker. Speakers in general are being "booked" less often, and far too many speakers have invested LOTS of $$ for far too little return

The Key to Extraordinary Leadership
What makes an extraordinary leader? What qualities do powerful leaders have that inspire others and help them achieve a new level of excellence? Anthony Robbins: "Leaders are those individuals who live by empowering beliefs and teach others to tap into their full capabilities by shifting the beliefs that have been limiting them." The most significant obstacle to tapping into your own authentic leadership abilites is what you believe about yourself and everyone around you culminating in an on-going story about how things are and how you are.Extraordinary levels of leadership are only made possible by understanding the true power of belief.

Selling in Bad Economic Times!
When the economy goes bad, it is easy for sales people to blame their lack of results on this, and I would not pretend that it is possible for every company to make their planned sales targets when this happens. However, after working with many sales organizations in 5 countries, and as a result of a survey of some 4,000 sales people, I found some very simple opportunities for improved sales effectiveness, which, if identified and seized, can produce some amazing increases in results even in tough times. Its just a matter of focus and discipline; things many sales people are averse to!

How to be an Audience Arsonist - Light a Fire of Possibility
A body at rest tends to stay at rest… - Sir Isaac Newton Sir Isaac got it right: a body at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Want proof? Peek around the curtain at audience members listening to a dull, flat, run-of-the-mill speaker at your next convention. Those bodies aren’t moving. They’re at rest. In fact, some of them are asleep. An "audience arsonist" can overcome that inertia and light a fire that moves them to action. The value of any event – a global company’s annual gathering, a sales convention, association meeting or any other professional event – is in the information and attitude audience members take with them on those return flights home. An Audience Arsonist is unique. They have the ability to "light a fire" under an audience and move them to action. Learn how to do that.

The Magic of Thinking Big... Or Even Bigger Still
When I run seminars I ask people to set goals for the coming year. Few set what I would call big goals. Let’s say I am working with a sales team and I ask what they would all like to sell this year. Few tell me a figure that is significantly at odds with the target given to them by their managers. So if their manager has targeted them at 250k of sales they will tell me their goal is 250k of sales or at the outside 300k. Why not $1 million?
BE AN EXPERT IN YOUR OWN LIFE

Life Success Tip – Be wary who you listen to
I experienced an enlightening moment the other day. I received an email from a gentleman asking me to explain what can I offer him that my business system cannot. Even though it seems like a straightforward question, it is not. I thought about it for a while, before I responded to it. The answer is something very simple, but very deep if you actually go to look at it. From the outside, it would seem silly and weightless, but from the inside it has the makings of a solid foundation. So what was my answer to that question?
