If you’re a new speaker, and you dream about doing what Daniel Hall does—trading your talents and speaking on cruise ships in exchange for traveling all over the world—you’d be smart not to even think about taking advantage of the best gig on the seven seas until you’ve bombed several times on dry land, learned from your mistakes and honed your speaking skills.
Then, and only then, are you ready to start promoting yourself to the cruise lines. (Daniel, by the way, recommends Princess Cruises and Royal Caribbean cruise lines for newer speakers.)
If you’re beyond a beginner, start promoting yourself RIGHT NOW because enrichment coordinators are reviewing marketing materials from speakers who want to be booked for cruises in 2011.
But don’t just dive in if you don’t know the step-by-step process on how to sell yourself. This is very different than marketing to meeting planners, and you don’t want the decision makers to brand you as an amateur.
Deadline Tomorrow Night
***Update on November 16: Daniel’s video is still available for viewing but will be taken down as soon as he sells 300 units of his coaching product***
Watch the replay of the webinar I hosted on Friday with Daniel Hall. It’s “Speakers Cruise Free: The Opportunity to Trade Your Talents for Luxury Cruises.”
Warning: This video is a little more than three hours long. It will only be available until 11:59 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, Nov. 11. Go there right now and watch it, or enlist someone to listen for you and take notes. Because the webinar is divided into several smaller videos, it’s easy to jump from one topic to the next.
Daniel’s special offer at the end is good only until 11:59 p.m. Eastern on Thursday. He’s only working with 300 speakers so the market for speaking on cruise lines doesn’t become more saturated that it already is. And most of those 300 speakers already have raised their hands.
Act now. You snooze, you lose.
I’ve thought a lot about this kind of speaking. With my cookbook out, this might be a fun one to use but I have non-fiction coming out and fiction pending. I think I’d really enjoy speaking on cruise lines. I’m going to add it to my goal list for the next two years and move toward it.
Thank you,
Angie
