Episode 6: How to Write a Winning Speaker Bio That Attracts Event Planners
Manage episode 477038187 series 3649476
Have you ever wondered why some speakers get booked for every conference while others struggle to land even one gig? The secret might be hiding in plain sight: your speaker bio.
In this value-packed episode, Deborah reveals what 87 professional event planners (who collectively book over 2,000 speakers annually) actually look for when selecting speakers. You'll discover the 5 essential elements every winning speaker bio must include, learn how to craft a Unique Value Proposition that makes you the obvious choice, and uncover which forms of social proof actually matter to decision-makers.
Most speakers make the critical mistake of writing their bio like a resume—focusing on their own accomplishments rather than the audience's needs. By the end of this episode, you'll have a proven 30-minute framework to transform your speaker bio from forgettable to irresistible, helping you get booked, get paid, and own the stage.
