Sales and Marketing Speakers Are Not The Same
Many people in organizations think about Sales and Marketing as the same function.
If you work in those areas, you know just how different they are. A Marketing Speaker should help your audience generate leads. For example, I am a Lead Generation Marketing Speaker. I train people in how to use Inbound Marketing to generate leads through improving business blogging, calls to action, social media and more.
I do not do Sales Speaking because, even though I am closing sales all the time, I do not feel like I am good enough to teach others to do it. In fact, I believe the only reason I am good at sales is because I am great at generation high quality, targeted leads. I really only have to talk to people that contact me, and I close a fair amount of sales.
This means that if you are looking for a sales and marketing speaker, there is a good chance you are looking for two professional speakers because it is hard to be a true expert in both these fields. And anyway, a marketing speaker that does a speech will then segway into a sales speaker that will talk about the sales funnel very well.
