On this April 25th WSA-TV Premier Show episode our guest experts share their speaker success strategies.
Featuring: Sharon Alston, Diane Dennis
& Charlotte Howard
Advice from our WSA Experts
We asked our featured guests to share some of their valuable wisdom with us.
Sharon suggests that we “utilize steps to conquer adversity and personal challenges, be honest with yourself about yourself, change your perspective about yourself and never give up on yourself. Surround yourself with positive, upwardly mobile people. Adversity doesn’t define you or your future, it refines you. There is power in adversity to push you forward in your life to set new goals, achieve them and live life with purpose, faith and power.”
Dianne advises us to “know your audience and demographic. Speak to their needs, not what they tell you they want. Use press releases as a branding tool.”
Charlotte says “get clarity on your reason for writing your book. Research to uncover its best seller potential in the marketplace. Launch your book with a team. Strategically turn your book into a 6-Figure+ business so you can impact people’s lives in a bigger way.”
