[zoe@innercompass.com.au]

Hi there

I am interested in doing some public speaking engagements this year for groups like mortgage brokers, real estate agents, network marketers.

I am putting together my speakers' page -but do you have any suggestions on

1. where to find these groups
2. the best way t approach them to land a speaking gig?

Thanks - head in fog over this one!

Hi Zoe,

In virtually every market there is a shortage of good speakers prepared to speak for free to quality audiences. Your question indicates you recognise the huge opportunity this provides to those of us prepared to provide value to generate quality leads.

To find where these guys meet, a good source is Crown Content's Directory of Associations.

I have just drafted a seven page report that lists other sources to look at and how to go about approaching them. It's still in draft form, but I can send you a copy if you want - please confirm.

Regards

Geoff

Do they have associations & regular networking meetings? Maybe that's a place to start. Look at sites like www.networkingworld.net.au for a list of networking events

Hi Zoe

I would also suggest contacting the industry associations for each of the groups you mentioned.

Geoff - would you mind sending me a copy of your draft report too? I have several clients who enjoy speaking and this would provide a great resource for me.

I've sought emails from each who requested the report so that I can send it on. I'm happy to send it to others - just include your email address with your request.
