307: Selling success through speaking with Colin Boyd
Manage episode 516376906 series 2974033
I have my good friend Colin Boyd joining us on the podcast today! I took Colin's online course back in 2019 to help me with selling from webinar and there's things he taught that I still use in every presentation I give. In this episode he's sharing how to sell with webinar, how to get your confidence when speaking, why he moved from Australia, to the US, back to Australia and has now settled in the US! AND - his new book, "One Presentation Away".
Key Topics Covered- Colin's Speaking Journey & Breakthroughs: From early nerves to landing high-profile clients like HP and building a decade-long relationship through value-driven presentations. 
- Selling vs. Performing: Why standing ovations matter less than crafting presentations that lead to concrete opportunities, sales, and offers. 
- Common Mistakes Among Speakers: Overloading content, teaching over the audience's head, and neglecting to guide the energy and next steps. 
- Infusion Selling: Colin's framework for blending valuable teaching with natural, story-infused selling throughout the entire talk (not just the ending pitch). 
- The Power of Presence: Strategies and easy exercises for grounding yourself before a talk—including Colin's signature "presence exercise"—to channel the right energy and confidence on stage. 
- Authentic Connection: The importance of vulnerability, reading the room, and using stories so your audience feels personally understood. 
- Identity Shifts for Aspiring Speakers: How to reframe your self-perception and step into leadership, regardless of nerves or experience. 
- Style & Energy: Why you don't need to be a high-octane "hype" speaker—authenticity and energy variation are more important than bravado. 
- Colin's Book – One Presentation Away: What inspired the book, who it's for, and the special bonuses for early orders. 
I hope you loved this conversation with Colin as much as I did. Speaking is such a powerful tool for creating both impact and sales when it's done with authenticity, clarity, and intention. If today's episode sparked something for you, I encourage you to grab a copy of Colin's new book One Presentation Away and start crafting the kind of talks that don't just inspire but also move people to action.
