4 - How Public Speaking Skills Can Help You Show Up With Clarity in Your Local Business and Beyond
Erik Dominguez, owner of Speak Up Stories, is on this episode of Local to Legend to flip your expectations of public speaking upside down. It’s not just those who command a stage who need to communicate effectively. It’s the average business owner too.
When you hone in on your message and the work you do, you can create clarity. And clarity breeds focused action that will help you make quicker decisions and give you the confidence you need to deliver your pitch to anyone who asks, “So, what is it you do again?
Improving your public speaking skills will transfer to more than just a keynote. They’ll trickle into how you show up on Instagram stories, Facebook lives, an networking event, a podcasting interview. When you’re clear on your story and your message, others will be too.
Tune in for topics like:
- Erik’s experience on the Speech & Debate team and how it influences his work today
- Why “perfect” is not only unrealistic but irrelevant too
- A simple structure to follow next time you’re speaking
- Using a Facebook Group to grow your online community
