I first met Mike Koenigs at an Internet marketing conference in Orlando almost 20 years ago at what was actually his first speaking engagement.
He later became a fulfillment client for Speaker Fulfillment Services, a company I founded in 2003.
It was an honor also to be selected to share the stage with Mike at a few of his own events and watch him truly become a master of the craft.
Tune in now and get Mike Koenigs’ thoughts on:
- His speaking journey, using speaking as a key marketing channel, and what led him to get into public speaking in the first place
- Mike Koenigs’ golden keys to success as a speaker
- A few mistakes he made along the way that he encourages aspiring, as well as active public speakers, to avoid
- What Mike is doing now, and where listeners should they go if they want to get into his world.
- And much, much more!
