DAY 10: Speaker Asset Readiness--One Sheet + Speaker Reel
Actions to take today:
  1. Listen to Day 10 Audio Lesson
  2. Read today's post
  3. Complete Day 10 tasks and reply to post
Good morning and welcome to Day 10.
By now, some of you may already be getting replies—or you will soon. And one of the most common responses you’ll receive after pitching is:
“Can you send more information?”
Today is about making sure you’re ready when that happens.
Assets don’t book you. Conversations do.
But having your assets ready allows momentum to continue while you work toward the call.
✨ Today’s Bankable Speaker Truth
Prepared speakers move faster.
Read it out loud.
What Today Is About
Buyers and event organizers usually want two things when they ask for more info:
  1. A speaker one sheet
  2. A speaker reel or sample video
These do not need to be perfect or expensive to be effective.
Today, we’re focused on clarity and readiness, not overproduction.
🛠 TODAY’S TASK (15–30 MINUTES)
Today, you will outline or begin creating:
  • your speaker one sheet
  • your speaker reel
No perfection. No design overwhelm. Just progress.
📄 Speaker One Sheet: What It Must Include
Your one sheet should clearly answer:
  • Who are you?
  • Who do you speak to?
  • What problem do you solve?
  • What transformation do you create?
Required Elements
☐ Your name + speaker title + Headshot
☐ Who you speak to (target audience)
☐ The problem you solve
☐ Your signature talk title
☐ Short session description
☐ 3 outcomes or takeaways
☐ Places you’ve spoken (formal or informal)
☐ Contact information
Optional (if available):
  • Mike shots (pictures of you with a mike in your hand speaking)
  • Testimonials
Simple. Clear.
🎥 Speaker Reel: What Buyers Want
Buyers are not looking for:
  • fancy editing
  • background music
  • a hype video
They want to:
  • hear your voice
  • understand your message
  • see how you connect
🎬 Speaker Reel Storyboard Framework (3–5 Minutes)
Use this structure to record or outline your reel:
1️⃣ Hook – Who you are and who you speak to
2️⃣ Problem – The pain your audience is experiencing
3️⃣ Insight – One strong teaching point
4️⃣ Authority – Why you’re credible
5️⃣ Close – The transformation you create
Easy Ways to Create It
  • Record on your phone or Zoom
  • Use a microphone for clear audio
  • Voice over existing speaking clips
  • Hire a low-cost editor on Fiverr
This is about clarity, not production.
A Reminder About Timing
If someone asks for more information before you’ve had a call, it’s okay to:
  • send a simple one sheet
  • share a short reel or video
These assets help bridge the gap until you get on a call.
Tomorrow, we’ll talk about how to respond to those emails and confidently ask for the conversation.
OPTIONAL: SHARE FOR FEEDBACK
If you already have a speaker one sheet or reel and would like feedback from the group, feel free to drop it with your reply today.
This is optional—but powerful. We grow faster when we learn together.
POST BELOW USING THIS FORMAT
Today I worked on my speaker assets. I made progress on __________.One thing I still need to finish or tweek on my existing assets is __________.
Then reply to one other person’s post with encouragement or insight.
You’re not behind. You're building.
