Want to use public speaking to get more clients? Good news: you will have more opportunities this year, according to the latest study out by American Express Meetings and Events Global Meetings forecast.
Interesting news: companies are more focused on “value” (translation: cost cutting). Another bummer: attendance is expected to decline. Meetings will also be shorter.
Prediction: there will be a rush for low-cost speakers, using smaller groups as an excuse not to pay more. My advice: choose your opportunities wisely.
Other cool findings are in the report. Click here for the highlights from Meetings and Conventions magazine.
