Description of Two Part Workshop:

What’s the Fuss about Public Speaking?

Why is public speaking so effective as a marketing tool for small business owners? There are several reasons it can help. 

Public speaking helps build your brand. By getting your name and your business name out there in the community at speaking events, you help to build awareness for your business.

It builds your reputation as an expert. When people hear you speak as an authority, they believe you’re an expert in your industry. This can help boost your reputation among potential customers and clients.

It enhances your confidence and your sales skills. Even if you have salespeople promoting your business, as the business owner, you are an integral part of “selling” your products and services to the world. If you’re not comfortable selling or engaging with others, public speaking can help. The more you speak, the more confidence you’ll gain, until eventually, you’ll feel comfortable talking to just about anyone.
