About this Event
Have you ever dreamed of becoming an in-demand and confident speaker? Do you want to get paid for sharing your story?
Now more than ever events and businesses (of all types and sizes) want to hear from athletes (and former athletes) just like you. Athlete stories are in hot-demand and it’s time for you to tap into the incredible opportunities sitting at YOUR doorstep.
We know that many athletes just don’t know where to start their speaker journey OR they hit brick walls every time they do try to engage paid work. Sound familiar? You’re not alone.
While there’s an abundance of opportunity waiting, you need the right strategy, tools and skills to secure regular bookings and paid work.
That’s where we can help.
Join us for a hands-on masterclass, created specifically for current and former athletes, where we’ll teach you how to engage paid speaking work and develop a powerful presentation.
Designed and delivered by industry experts, this workshop will help you:
- Understand the speaking industry – what businesses and events are looking for, what to charge and how you can use your athlete profile to your advantage.
- Craft a powerful presentation and tailor it to your audience.
- Learn how to use proven storytelling techniques to deliver an impactful presentation.
- Develop a strategy and action plan to promote and pitch your speaker package.
- Create the resources you need to promote yourself as a speaker.
- Plus – you’ll hear case studies from real Australian athletes who have found success in the speaker world.
We want you to walk away from this workshop with everything you need to become a highly sought-after, paid speaker.
So, this workshop includes:
- Live coaching from the experts to get you ready to become a paid and confident speaker.
- A keynote speech template (that you’ll populate on the day)
- A printed guidebook with templates and examples of all the marketing materials you need to promote yourself
- A strategic and structured action plan to secure paid work – with every next step you need to take outlined and explained.
