How do you measure the value of your speech?
Is the value of your speech based on:
How long you spoke?
How long you prepared?
Your education or title?
If you are toying with any of those yardsticks – you are way off.
The real value of your speech is based on the value of what you make happen as a result of your speech.
So if your sales presentation closed a $10M deal – it was a $10M speech.
If your impassioned plea generated $30,000 in association revenue – it was a $30,000 speech.
If your presentation inspired another $100,000 in donations – it was a $100,000 speech.
If your talk inspired your staff to work together and finish the $3M project on time – it was a $3M speech.
If your speech pushed the button on a $25,000 sale – it was a $25,000 speech.
Knowing that, what will you do to better prepare?
What will you invest in making your speech a success?
Consider this: Million Dollar Speeches don’t come cheap.
