You have a tough job.
I know. I spent two years planning meetings for the Colorado Chapter of the National Speakers Association as the Vice-President of Programs. Boy, was that an eye-opening experience!
Trying to coordinate all the disparate elements necessary to pull off an effective meeting is stressful enough without speakers adding to your difficulties. It was astonishing how often experienced, professional speakers didn’t send their materials by deadline, spent a fortune (of our money) on travel or didn’t show up to the meeting room until five minutes before they were supposed to go on stage.
The experience gave me an enormous amount of empathy and appreciation for what you do. And as a result, I want to make your job easier.
1. send you everything you need before your deadline.
3. send you powerful, proven marketing materials that will help you boost your attendance.
4. happily attend dinners, lunches, breakfasts or cocktail parties to meet your people.
5. show up at the event (and the meeting room) early, so you’re not worrying where I am.
8. help out if things go wrong.
My goal is for both of us to get heaps of praise. I look forward to working with you to make that happen!
