Establishing credibility in persuasive speech allows you to build trust, enhance your reputation, and ultimately expand your book of business.

How Do You Establish Credibility With Your Audience?

Here are some simple tips and tricks on how to establish credibility in speech:

A Guide to Booking Famous Celebrity Speakers

You’ve done it — you’ve grown your event, and it’s ready for a celebrity speaker. So how do you book one?

Celebrity speakers are in another league. When someone reaches a certain level of fame, they have whole teams working for them to handle their reputation. 

That means they won’t speak at just any event. The event needs to be worthy of their time, and you need to understand exactly what that means for the celebrity you’re trying to book. 

A Guide to Booking Motivational Keynote Speakers

Whether you’re still hosting virtual corporate events or getting ready for in-person gatherings again, booking the right speaker is a vital part of the event planning process.

But how do you begin to choose the right speaker for your event? In the United States alone, there are 40,000 public speakers––and the industry is expected to grow by 4.1% every year until 2025. 

Work Life Balance Speakers To Help Your Employee Love Life Again

As the world becomes increasingly connected, and the options for employees to work from home continue to increase, it gets harder and harder for people to maintain a comfortable work life balance. This is not because employers are encouraging that more work be completed over longer hours, simply, the shift has happened on its own due to the accessibility of information and communication.

If you implement the practical guidance in this course, your content and presentation skills will be able to shine through the screen and impact everyone in your virtual meeting. This course includes about 2 hours of materials, and then you’ll be prepared to schedule your assessment to get the Certified Virtual Presenter — or CVP — badge.

Choosing the Best Virtual Event Software

Events have quickly taken themselves online as 2020 has brought on serious limitations when it comes to in-person gatherings. We all had to make these adjustments with little warning, which means that a lot of us went for the first virtual event software we could find.

Now that we’re a bit more settled in and better adjusted to this virtual world, we can take the time to evaluate software choices. Choosing the best virtual event software is a common problem many event planners have today.
