๐ค SpeakerAppearances Over Time
Podcast Appearances
I'm still doing 35 to 40 engagements a year. And I get an email every week or every other week that just says, firm offer. Here's the engagement. Here's where you need to be. Here's the money. Here's the topic that they picked. And that's only because we've spent enough time together and their agents know exactly what we're looking for. And if you get to the point that you've got great ratings,
Now, when people are calling up for the Bureau saying, who do you have? Who's your new shiny toy? Who's in this price range? Who talks about these topics? They're not just going through a Rolodex of speakers. Now, you're top of mind. You're at least in the top one, two, or three. And it gives the agent an opportunity to sell your name out there a little bit more.

So now, some of these associations, it would blow your mind to, not you, because you do this. I think it would blow your audience's mind to think, wow, there's an association for that. Yeah. And they get together. And when they do, they're looking for sometimes an outside speaker. When that happens, I want to be their guy or their girl.

Yeah, my topics are probably the same three or four, and I've been looking to expand a little bit more. Certainly right now, we've got a lot of things that are going on in society here in the U.S. and actually globally. But for the most part, because people know me and I'm associated with Hard Rock, you're probably going to get more around the culture, service, employee engagement type stuff.

All mine is branded, so it follows my book, Culture That Rocks, Service That Rocks, Engagement That Rocks. Right now, the real big focus and what I'm seeing almost any group is happy if you're talking about leadership. I do have a course and a webinar, and I am working on my next book called, as you can imagine, Leadership That Rocks.

And I think that really helps me out a lot to now go back to the well, talk to some of these other clients that have already done stuff for perhaps they've already gone through the main keynotes. Now, if we get into workshop oriented stuff, and you talked about this earlier, because of my training and development background, I can help people handle guest complaints.

or do a brand new interview, or how to have tough conversations with people, or maybe coaching counsel employee, like all of these tactical, technical things. Yes, I can do that. And there's probably 10, 15 of those. But really, people now are looking for great edutaining keynote speakers.

And so for me, culture, service, engagement, leadership, a little bit around performance management, those are the key ones. But I'll tell you, I was at an event where it just had speaker authors there. And there's a couple of communities, believe it or not, we do the same thing as everybody else. We get together and talk about our world.
