One of the most common questions I receive daily is- 

“Sir, how can I become a Public Speaker like you?”

And this blog post will exactly answer this question! 

1) Establish Your Field of Expertise

The first step is to understand what are you good at? You can ask yourself:

What do I excel at?

What do I feel strongly about? 

What distinct viewpoint do I have to offer? 

For instance, perhaps you might be passionate about the finance field and you might have gathered a lot of knowledge through books, and courses and continuously updated yourself through news and other materials. 

2) Keep practicing 

The most important part of public speaking effectively is to practice wherever you like. You don’t need to perform this in front of others; practice makes perfect. You will use this ability when you stand by yourself in front of the mirror and practice your words and gestures.

You can also practice speaking in front of family members or coworkers by getting up and doing so. You can also record videos of yourself on your smartphone. 

3) Choose a Target Audience

The next step is to identify who would profit from hearing your speaking once you’ve decided what you want to say and how you want to say it. What demographic needs to hear your message and what age range?

Who do they work for? Who lives there?

You can decide what examples to use to make your points with the most impact by defining your target audience. Additionally, once you are aware of your target market, you can determine the best places to reach them, such as marketing conferences, other professional gatherings, or social media. 

4) Develop a personal brand 

Developing a personal brand involves utilizing visual tools to communicate your message, tone, and style. In essence, your brand’s tenets—such as its colors and fonts—work together with its promise statement and message to give potential customers a clear picture of who you are. Each of these components works together to make you stand out from the crowd.

5) Establish A Professional Online Presence

The key to learning how to become a public speaker is to build a strong online presence. People will open their phones as soon as they hear your pitch and look you up online.

Make sure your website is attractive, expertly designed, and clearly describes what you do. Additionally, you should be active on several social media sites, including Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. 

Start producing content if you’re serious about showing your worth. It’s a great way to establish your expertise to share educational blog posts or videos.
