One of the most important tools you can have for promoting your speaking career is a professional, informational demo video. Even well-know personalties benefit from having a good demo video. Here are some tips to making your demo video impactful and helpful for event planners:
- Be sure to have at least 2 consecutive minutes of you speaking before an audience.
- Make your video personable, cleanly edited and straight forward. Do not make it like a commercial with too many flashy graphics, sound effects and gimmicky editing techniques. This is not a movie trailer. Answer the questions: How will you make the event planner's audience rave about your presentation? How will you make the event planner look brilliant for booking you?
- Introduce your expertise, testimonials, books authored and media clips but do not make this the bulk of your video. At the most, feature this information for 30 - 60 seconds. Your written marketing materials should spotlight this information. Event planners are viewing your demo video to see your presentation style.
- Use professionally video taped presentation clips. Make sure the sound is good and that the video quality is light (err on the light side - many video clips are too dark for computer viewing), sharp and color corrected.
Ideal Video Timeline:
- First 30-45 seconds: grab your viewer's attention quickly with professional graphics, introducing how and what you will do for your audience. Tell why you are an expert at what you do, show quick clips of your best speaking moments and answer the question "Why should you be booked, rather than someone else?"
- Next two minutes: show an extended, consecutive clip of you speaking before an audience. Make sure the clip makes sense and is in context. Not just a random story or "fluff." Interaction with the audience, humor and some cutaways of audience reactions can be powerful.
- Most event planners will only watch the first few minutes of a demo video, so effectively you are done at this point. But, you can fill-out your demo video with more client video testimonials, expand on your credentials, more media & presentation clips, etc.. You can also put another 1 to 2 minute speaking clip taped at a different venue at the end.
- Keep in mind that most speakers bureaus will not want your contact information showing at the end of your video. You might want to have two versions: one you can send speakers bureaus with something like "Please contact your speakers bureau for booking information" and one with your contact information to send clients directly.

Debbie Allen: Profile
International Business Speaker, Best Selling Author & Motivational Movie StarDebbie has built and sold numerous highly successful companies in diverse industries. At the young age of 19 she became a successful entrepreneur and part owner of a car rental business in northwest Indiana. The rental company expanded into multiple businesses including mini-storage facilities, used car lot, camper sales, towing company, car wash, body shop and a towing company.
After learning how to build multiple businesses from the ground floor up, she sold her shares of the family business at age 30 and purchased her first retail clothing store. Buying a small fledgling retail business with no retail experience is not a wise move for most people, yet Debbie was determined to make it work. Within three years she turned her new passion for retail into a highly successful company, growing it 10 times over to a multi-million dollar business with multiple locations. After 15 years in the retail industry she sold her successful stores to three different owners, all for full asking price without a business broker.
Debbie was honored by the US Chamber of Commerce with the prestigious Blue Chip Enterprise Award for overcoming business obstacles and achieving fast business growth for her retail success in 1997.
She now teaches the lessons of 'shameless' success with her innovative business-building strategies. Her contagious enthusiasm for business and professional speaking began in 1995. She started her speaking career as a retail expert and quickly became one of world's top professional speakers to the retail industry.
For the past 14 years Debbie has presented keynotes, seminars and workshops for diverse industries before thousands of people in 12 countries around the world. She presents motivational sales and marketing presentations for retail, mortgage, real estate, direct sales, franchises, entrepreneurial business conferences and women's groups.
She is one of less than 10% of professional speakers worldwide to have achieved the honor of CSP, Certified Speaking Professional by both the National Speakers and International Speakers Associations.
