Public Speakers Super-Agent Reveals Secrets

steve — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 16:56:55 +0000

I just returned from the Siebold Success Network (SSN) in Atlanta, where I interviewed public speakers super-agent Bruce Serbin, the man who booked me on the Today Show, Good Morning America, ABC News, BBC in Europe, NBC Australia and dozens more. Not to mention tons of radio shows, newspaper and magazine interviews across the globe. I’ve worked with publicists in the past and interviewed dozens of them over the years, and Bruce Serbin is the best of the best. In this video I ask him the question every professional or aspiring professional speaker wants to know: how does he do it? Why don’t we see more professional speakers on TV? Why is it that other speaker publicists don’t seem to be able to deliver the same results? Watch this short video to learn how this award-winning master does it, and how you can do it, too. To see some of the TV shows Bruce has booked me on in the last few months, click on “Steve on TV” on the header of the blog. I’ll look forward to your comments. Steve Siebold (3:04 )

How To Flood Your Calendar with Speaking Engagements

This is the marketing system I used to build a seven-figure speaking business during the 9/11 attacks. Imagine generating over 300 leads for speeches, training, coaching and consulting dates after delivering one 10-minute speech to a group of referral agents. On October 15-17, 2010 we’re going to host the last meeting of the year of the Siebold Success Network. The deadline to speak at this event is this Sunday, August 15 at midnight.

Audience “Shocked and Stunned” by Senior Executives Comments on Speaking Business

steve — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 16:32:24 +0000

I interviewed a senior executive last weekend in Atlanta at the Siebold Success Network meeting for almost 2 hours onstage, and the audience of speakers was shocked at what she had to say. This executive hires some of the biggest speakers in the business, and she told the truth about what it takes to get hired at this level. As I’ve been saying over and over again in this blog, there’s a large group of speaker trainers getting rich telling people how easy the speaking business is and how you don’t have to be a good speaker to make it. They’re telling the masses of new speakers exactly what they want to hear. The problem is new speakers don’t know the truth from the lies, and they often choose to follow the path that looks easiest. That’s why I’m fighting these liars by interviewing corporate executives who hire speakers. The speaking industry is a wonderful business, and we need more thought leaders who are also competent presenters. The only chance a new speaker has to break into the business, (outside of getting famous) is to learn how the business really works and what organizations are looking for. Listen to this post, and join us in Atlanta June 11-13, for the next session of the Siebold Success Network. www.sieboldsuccessnetwork.com Over 4,000 contracts were signed last weekends between speakers and referral agents. All we were missing is YOU!

If you’re interested in speaking for the biggest, richest companies in the world but you haven’t been able to figure out how to do it, don’t feel bad.

The good news is there’s a secret to cracking the code, and there’s a group of speakers from 10 countries around the world who have banded together to help each other make it happen. All this group is missing is you! Listen to this post and then visit www.sieboldsuccessnetwork.com Steve Siebold
