How To Become A Better Financial Content Creator & Speaker
What I Learned From Anthony Oneal About Speaking & Creating Content
Anthony Oneal
Is financial educator and content creator who I had the pleasure of seeing a couple years ago at FINCON. He is someone that I’ve followed in the financial literacy space because I like his approach to money management and how he delivers his message.
Start With A Story
People are attracted to stories, so use stories to draw people in.
Have a YOU message …what’s your message what are you passionate about
Use your personal message to connect with your passion
People respect authenticity
Be real!
Keep Your Speaking Engagements the Same at the Core but Incorporate New Life Experiences
Find ways to evolve your speaking engagements as you experience more in your life. Use those experiences to help create more talking points and lessons.
Be A Sponge of Daily Life Experiences
Always learn. If you’re not learning, you’re not earning.
Don’t Practice Humor, Be Funny Naturally
Being a professional speaker, you can’t force being funny even stand up comedians don’t practice humor the way you think they do. Think of the person that forces the dad jokes vs the person that just has a knack for telling stories in a funny matter, when you are speaking to a crowd you don’t want to force your joke
Study the Culture of Who Booked You
Don’t go into an environment without a scouting report.
If You Can’t Say What You Need to Say in 5 Minutes, You Can’t Say It At All
