At a recent speaker training program in Nashville, TN, I learned so much new information and absorbed so much content, that I know the expert trainer over delivered again and again. What’s in this for you?

Plain and simple, whenever you deliver a training session or coaching session you had better over deliver. The reason you should over deliver is because you will be able to set yourself apart from the rest of the speaking industry speakers and trainers.

What are the secrets of being a great MC?

Being asked to MC an event can happen anytime. At a social setting, at work or for more formal occasions.

Because of my business as a professional speaker, I’m often called on to be a professional MC.

Take for example my recent experiences hosting the Real Estate Institute of WA’s (REIWA) formal annual dinner, and the presentation of the Kevin Sullivan memorial Award, the Institute’s highest accolade.

A professional MC can make or break an event.

What do people remember?

Meta tags are used on a particular webpage and are written even before writing the content for the page. Majority web masters usually write the content of the webpage and then add in keywords in the Meta tags. This isn’t the best approach as it generally makes your page a bit confusing to your visitors. Before writing content for website, spend quality time in selecting 3-4 primary keywords. After doing that, spend another minute to write phrases from those words. This is an easy task and won’t take much time of yours. A few questions that hit the mind are:

Yes and No.

Yes, if you are a non-native speaker speaking to a native English speaker (classified as English speakers from the UK, Australia, New Zealand and North America).

No, if you are a non-native English speaker speaking to another non-native speaker (classified as… everybody else).

Let me explain.

English language teaching theory has traditionally been based on native English forms, more specifically British and American English varieties. In today’s international community however, where more than 1 billion non-native English speakers use English as a lingua franca, teaching theory is changing to focus on English as an International Language (EIL).

The search for a literary agent is often carried out online because this is a fast and instant way to get results. But using online information, which has its advantages (immediacy, recency, and speed), also has certain disadvantages for the writer. Chief among these are the fact that the online information may be hard to verify, it may be outdated, and it may not give sufficient data about the agents’s interests and recent sales. Ironically, you may sometimes get better or more accurate information from print sources. This article explains why and when to use books to find a literary agent.

Google defines copywriting as the art of writing sales and marketing materials. It is also defined as the process of writing a piece of literature with the object of promoting a person, business, opinion, or idea. Both definitions of copywriting connote a system. Art, even in its purest form, still implements a system in one way or the other.

If you put all of these together, copywriting involves conforming to a set of standards created for a particular goal—that is, increased revenues and exposure for a product or service.

A copywriter, therefore, is required one to abide in the following best practices to become credible and successful:

I’ve published 1,215 articles without being paid a dime.

It’s not a record. At one of the Ezine sites where my work appears, there is another writer who is by far the leader, with more than 11,000 submissions to his credit.

Why do I do it?

Aren’t I investing a lot of time, and foregoing substantial money, while enriching publishers who sell Google advertising based on my effort?

Isn’t it also true that many of my direct competitors are advertising next to my articles and near my byline?

Q: How do you write an article that makes the reader feel like they must have what you are offering?

A: Simply stated, customers like to do business (spend money) with people they know, like and trust.

Think about the offline merchants you visit on a regular basis. If you are like me, you prefer to deal with merchants that you know, like and trust, and with whom you have a relationship.

The know like and trust factor is even more important online when you are not interacting face to face.
