This quick talk tip will help you avoid the trap that many speakers fall into, and will help you become more marketable to your target audience. 

In this show I’m covering:

  • The burning platform thought experiment. 
  • The impact of failing to find a ‘hot’ problem.
  • Hot topic vs. hot problem 
  • The evergreen hot topics
  • The principles of making your talk topic marketable.
  • How you can get more help.

Enjoy!
