3 ways to market your company’s speaker
Speaking engagements are a terrific way to increase your company’s visibility and enhance your reputation. Perhaps your company’s speaker is captivating and delivers presentations that are engaging and informative. When your speaker can get in front of an audience, you know the results will be positive for your company. However, your speaking engagements are few and far between, leaving you wondering: What is the best way to promote my company’s speaker?
Here are three strategies to land more speaking engagements for your company speaker:
- Promote your speaker on social media platforms.
If your company doesn’t have a comprehensive social media strategy, now is the time to get one. Constant Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter presence is a must. To actively promote your speaker, your company must be active on social media. If no one knows you have a superstar speaker, there is no chance to line up speaking engagements.
- Highlight your speaker in company newsletters.
This is a perfect opportunity to showcase your speaker to current and potential clients. Regular newsletters are a great way to keep your base informed. Let them know you have a fantastic speaker who will dazzle their audience while helping them with their business needs.
- Email media alerts to selected journalists and media outlets.
The media welcomes knowing that your company speaker is an expert on topics they write about. If they never know about your speaker’s engagements, they will never cover them. Keep them informed and the results will be beneficial.
