As I attended The Spiritual awakening Conference today I used a new technique instead of selling I simply went over to booths and introduced myself and collected cards to follow up. I mentioned that I host a radio show, Get Motivated With Jonathan “JDOGG Lederman on Monday from 7-8 PM EST at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyeradio1 and the author mentioned her show and then gave me a signed copy of her book with a great message.

When I read the other day that the # 1 fear of people in America is Public Speaking and death ranks #2, I thought of a quote I heard that means at a funeral more people would rather be the one in the casket than the one delivering the eulogy.

Advertisement Ideas: Honing Your Skills!!!
I was asked how do you get to Carnegie Hall. My answer was practice. The more you practice your craft the better you become. Preparation is half the battle. One key is to practice in the mirror and videotape yourself and tweak for improvement.
Through Practicing and critiquing your videos you will become a better presenter. For example this video has some mistakes but I kept it and posted it to learn and show people it is okay to make mistakes as long as they help you to improve.
Some great tips to help you hone your skills are:
. Write a Script and Rehearse
. Go With The Flow and keep going even if you make a mistake
. Practice in Front of A Mirror

Setting aside time everyday to practice your craft will set in motion the skills needed to succeed. Remembering the adage how you do anything is how you do everything is a key element in honing your skills. In being able to hone your skills daily you will deliver a peak performance. As a PA Announcer I make it a point to practice daily. I find a game on TV of any sport and I do my announcer voice so that I can be the best announcer when the time comes to do the announcing at a live event. In college I made a tape for a friend where I made up an entire baseball game and I sent it to him so he could critique it. By doing this I was able to hone my skills and improve on my craft. Today there are many videos of me at www.youtube.com/jdogglederman that I watch to see what I did correctly and what I need to improve.

Spiritual Emcee: Being The Best Master of Ceremony
When you receive a booking to be an Emcee there are a few keys to remember:
1: It is about the crowd being entertained- Bring energy and enthusiasm
2: Do you home work- Know about the peopleinvolved ahead of time, know the event, and what is expected of you
3: Arrive early so as to prep and make sure all the equipment runs correctly.
I always am grateful for the gig and the opportunity to be part of events. I generally practice before hand as I ask for a script and bios of performers/players so I have something to use to fill down time. You are there for the audience so know who the audience will be.
You have to be quick on your feet as well so have some quips and one liner available to keep the audience entertained.
