How to Find Paid Public Speaking Jobs

Helping you start your motivational speaking business and training you to make more money in your motivational speaking career is what I want to do. A question I get all the time is, “James, how do I get paid public speaking jobs?” To find these jobs you just need to know where to look, because these jobs are out there. A few ideas are:visit at http://online-typingwork.blogspot.com

1) Start by looking for organizations that serve the niche you’re in. An example: in my niche I’d look at DECA marketing organizations such as FCCLA. Take a look at investor associations, the national board of realtors or even local community associations if you’re in the real estate industry.

2) Research public speaking opportunities in related associations within your area of expertise. Get the contact information of the conference coordinator even if you weren’t hired as their keynote speaker, don’t be afraid.

3) Creating a database of potential clients who may be searching for conference speakers in the future can help increase your professional speaking success. You can do this by contacting universities, colleges and professors. Be sure to also try and contact your local speakers bureaus, non-profit organizations, corporations and even libraries.

4) You may want to check out the speaker forums for jobs when starting a professional speaking business. Many jobs aren’t paid ones, you’ll find, but they may be useful in helping you create credibility in your niche. It is key that you remember eventually go after higher and higher paying jobs instead of working for free.http://online-typingwork.blogspot.com

5) You’ll develop a system to keep track of all the places you’ll market yourself to as you figure out how to get books for professional speaking. To provide contact information for organizations and conferences that are hiring motivational speakers the internet is going to be very helpful. You can get a large listing to work with just by searching for “calls for speakers” or “speakers wanted”.

6) There are directories that are published that list all the paying markets within a niche. No directory is ever complete, but it will provide you enough contact to keep your business going. There are three main directories that can be helpful with research: The National Trade and Professional Associations Directory, The Directory of Association Meeting Planners and the Directory of Corporate Meeting Planners. These directories do cost a bit to acquire, but they’ll make researching your niche easier than ever!

7) Referrals are the last source of potential paid public speaking jobs. Building up a network of peers and clients in your area of expertise can create referrals, helping to bring your name to the attention of event coordinators looking to hire. The person who markets first to event coordinator is the one who will get the job when they are ready to hire. Make sure you are the one there first!

And one last thing. Remember that you will always be able to find people who are willing to pay you to speak. With this number of resources you’ll be able to start researching your niche market much easier. Don’t be afraid to go after the big money, once you’ve got a few gigs under your belt that is! http://online-typingwork.blogspot.com
