Tip 4 — Your Warmest Leads
Most speakers spend months thinking about the internet audience and almost no time thinking about the people sitting right in front of them.
Let's Talk StrategyThink About This
Between 300 and 500 people will watch your talk live. They didn't stumble across it in a feed. They showed up, found a seat, and gave you their full attention.
That level of intent is rare. On YouTube, someone might click away after 45 seconds. The people in that room stayed for all of it. They are some of the most primed people you will ever reach.
Most speakers walk off stage and never think about them again. That's a significant missed opportunity.
Two Very Different Relationships
YouTube View
Someone watches, maybe likes, maybe doesn't. You have no way to reach them again. No follow-up. No relationship. They exist in a platform you don't control.
Email Subscriber
Someone gives you their email. You can reach them tomorrow, next month, or when your book comes out. That connection belongs to you, not to an algorithm.
A page tied to your talk topic. A clear reason to leave their email. A resource, a checklist, a next step that flows naturally from what they just heard.
If your existing website already does that job well, you're ahead of most speakers. If it doesn't, that's the gap to close before your talk goes live.
What This Looks Like in Practice
Event programmes, follow-up emails, and signage are all fair game. Ask early whether the organiser can point attendees to your website or resource after the event. Most are happy to help — you just have to ask before the day.
Not your homepage. A dedicated page that speaks directly to what you just covered, with one clear thing to do. The more specific the match, the higher the conversion.
A resource, a guide, access to something they can't get anywhere else. The value you offer in the room sets the tone for every relationship that follows.
