Tell me what you want, what you really, really want

Tell me what you want, what you really, really want!

It’s OK, don’t panic I’m not going to go into a karaoke version of a Spice Girls song, I wouldn’t do that to you, it would ruin your weekend. 

This week I’m handing over to you. I would appreciate your input.  I’m creating emails regularly based on what I think will help you in your speaking business, but I may well be missing topics that you would like me to cover.  So, I have a couple of questions for you and I’d love to get your views.

Firstly: how often do you want to hear from me?  Currently I email once a week.  Is that the right frequency or should it be different?

Second question:  What would you like me to cover in future missives?  What do you really, really want? (zig-a-zig-ah)

Thank you for that.

In other news, I will be donning my Simon Cowell polo-neck trousers later this year as I have been asked, with Mary Tillson, to be a judge at The Speaker Awards 2023.

The Speaker Awards made their debut last year and we were thrilled to see how well speakers from Speaking Business Academy were in the awards.  Mary and I were very proud.

I’m sharing this with you as it’s important to see a diverse range of speakers, to hear their perspectives and ideas and I’d love one of our speaker friends to be lifting the top award again this year.  It also gives us a chance to get dressed up and have a bit of a party.  What’s not to love?

I’m inviting you to enter the awards to showcase your expertise and speaking talent and to spend an evening in my company.  (There’s always a downside to everything šŸ˜Š)
