On the BusinessRadioX network, host Jim Beach interviewed me on his “School for Startups” program.  The topic, “How to Build a Speaking Career,” was suggested by Jim after we met at a Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce event, and that premise formed the backbone of the hour-long talk.

In this radio interview, I took a basic four-step approach to addressing the topic.

  1. Identify a problem
  2. Create a credible solution
  3. Present to an audience that want to hear
  4. In a way they like

Along the way, though, Jim was very interested in the components of my “5 Kinds of Amazing” keynote, so you’ll hear about how I line up magic experiences and business competencies to teach businesses how to use lessons from the magical theatre to increase their audience’s brand engagement.

5 Kinds of Amazing

  1. Talent – Expertise (highly developed skill, deep knowledge)
  2. Science – Process (natural laws with a surprise)
  3. Magic – Empowerment (breaking the laws/process)
  4. Telepathy – Communication (how close can you get to mindreading)
  5. Predictions – Trendspotting (anticipating/creating the future)

UPDATE: Alas, many years have passed and the audio is no longer available online.

We shot a bonus video, too – you can watch it below or go straight to the YouTube page.
