Public Speaking Will Bring You FREE Leads

Posted by Deb Bixler

Would you like to have an unlimited supply of FREE leads?

Public speaking will bring you FREE leads and more business than you can handle. One of the reasons I was able to replace my full time job with my direct sales business in only 9 months, was because of my willingness to offer myself as a public speaker. Area clubs, churches and social organizations are always looking for FREE speakers. MLM and network marketers are always looking for FREE leads. It is a win-win situation. Every time you speak to a group on any topic you will find people who want your services. Usually one out of 10 in the audience will have an interest in one of your services. Public speaking can be a source of unlimited business.

Are you really afraid of public speaking?

I am frequently surprised at how many home party distributors say they are afraid of public speaking. In direct sales you are public speaking every time you do a show. The experience of speaking to a larger audience is not that much different. When I first started speaking to groups in earnest I felt more comfortable with something in my hands, just like at a show, so I always brought props. To this day, I still like to do something rather than just stand behind a podium. I walk, draw, talk and wave things around. It is a blast!

Develop Speaking Topics

The system of using public speaking to generate an unlimited supply of FREE leads will work for you too. To get started, think about your skills, passions, and hobbies. Make a list of about 10 under each topic. The subjects on the list do not have to be related to your business. Even if you speak about topics unrelated to your business you will still get leads. Speakers always get to tell their story or history. Next pick out 3 topics you would like to speak on and write a snappy speech title for each. One of my first three topics was “The Jack Rabbit Energy Workshop: You will learn how to get the energy and spring of 12 jack rabbits on a trampoline.” Now that is a snappy title! I had 2 other speeches to start with and the one that always sold was the Energy Workshop. To this day I am still doing the Jack Rabbit Energy Workshop. Now I get paid to get FREE leads! Do not worry about what you will say for each speech. That will come later.

Start Calling Groups

It is time to start making calls. You are offering your services as a free speaker. You have 3 terrific speeches. You also can offer your services as a fundraiser to the groups as well. Create a routine of making a certain amount of calls every day. When any sales professional puts a system into place to make 5 calls per day to groups who may need a speaker and/or fundraiser, it will only be a matter of time before you book your first speaking engagement. It will not take long to fill your calendar. You will schedule, fundraisers and speaking engagements, and at both of those you will find leads for your network marketing business. Some of the organizations will start out having you speak, then have you in for a fundraiser. Your system should be consistent. If 5 calls a day is too many, pick a number that will work for you. The key is to consistently make calls. You will have more business than you can handle.

Plan Your Speech

Once your first speaking engagement is dated, that is when you create your speech. If you create all of your speeches ahead of time you may not sell any of them as you may find other needs that you can serve. Wait until someone picks the topic, then do the speech. Like me, you may find that everyone picked the same topic.

You Can Get Paid For Leads

Wow! Unlimited FREE leads! It is like a network marketer’s dream come true. After a while you may have such a full calendar between fundraisers, speaking engagements and your show schedule, you may just be able to start charging for your speaking engagements. WOW! Now you are getting paid for FREE leads!

There is really no excuse for not having enough business. This system is available to anyone who is willing to take advantage of it. Are you really afraid of public speaking or is it that you are not willing to give it a try?

Learn systems to create better cash flow in your sales business

People or businesses never fail. Only systems fail. If your system is not working, try one that is. A system that works for one business will work for another business, no matter what the product line is. The systems or best-business-practices contained in these sets will increase cash flow in any sales business.
