The Speak Shop

Are you a speaker who wants to make more money as a communicator?

Do you want bigger stages? Longer lines at the book-signing table?

Look, I get it. You have content the world needs to hear, but you’re probably unsure of how to level up your content.

I’ve found that the biggest things holding thought-leaders back is they don’t know how to make their content and delivery more engaging.

For some it’s the way they organize it. For others, they lack of humor and storytelling. trust me, there are many reasons.

I’m Eva, the owner of The Speak Shop.

I help thought-leaders like you develop and deliver compelling content.

I believe most people are too close to their content to know if it’s any good but their message is too important to not be intentional about it.

To be the best, I believe all speakers need a communication expert in their corner to help them grow their business and make them have the impact they desire.

That is what I do and I want to do that for you. I am here to help people share life-changing content. Let me help you become the most engaging and sought-after thought-leader in your space.

Contact me so we can make this happen.

Adding Sparkle to Your Speeches | I help CEOs and Speakers develop and deliver compelling speeches | Public Speaking Coach & Consultant | Public Speaking Workshops | Speaker | Entrepreneur

Hi, I’m Eva, the owner of The Speak Shop.

I help CEOs and professional speakers like you develop and deliver compelling speeches.

I spent a couple decades working with some of the nation’s top authors, speakers, pastors, innovators, renegades, and rebel-rousers, producing broadcasts, podcasts, YouTube shows and writing speeches.

I learned a lot.

One of the biggest things I learned is that the greatest speakers and communicators in the world have a communication expert in their corner.

You are too close to your content. 

I’m the person who comes in and gives you the honest feedback you need to level up your content and your delivery. I’m not intimidated by your fame, power, or status and I’ll tell you kindly and directly what you need to do to elevate your thought-leadership.  I’ll also coach you through how to deliver it in a confident and authentic way.  

If you hire me I’m super passionate about three things: helping you develop your thought-leadership to give the speech that only you can give, leveling up your story-telling and helping you to integrate in humor. These are the skills that help speakers make the leap from good to great.  

I want YOU to become a great speaker. 

I want you to make more money as a speaker, longer lines at the book table, and more impact, and I believe it all starts with having great content. 

I believe you have a message within you that needs to be shared with the world. 

Let me help you become the most engaging and sought-after thought-leader in your space.

I also provide 1:1 coaching and public speaking training for your team.

But don't take it from me, this is what Dave Ramsey said, “Eva helped me and The Ramsey Personalities with talks for several years while on our team. She is smart, energetic, creative, and fun to work with developing world-class communication!”

Contact me so we can help YOU become a world-class communicator too: eva@thespeakshop.com

You need more than one great talk.

But you shouldn't recreate the wheel every single time you're asked to speak.

I've observed that great speakers have a minimum of 2 talks with an average of 4.

I've also observed there are four types of keynotes you should consider having. 

That's what this carousel is all about. 

Your four talks might look different based on your expertise. This is only meant to show you what I've seen work for others.

What do you think of this concept? Do you have four?

4 Keynotes

Descriptive language makes speeches pop.

It makes you go from meh to memorable in your storytelling.

In high school we learned all these rhetorical devises. Things like metaphors, hyperbole, and onomatopoeia.

Unless you're a professional writer, in the real world these fell to the wayside. 

It's time to bring them back.

In this carousel I share 10 types of descriptive language you can use in your next speech to help make it pop. 

Do you use any of these in your speaking? What else would you add to the list?

P.S. You can get a FREE resource on how to cut filler words and phrases and what you should say instead at: https://lnkd.in/eyGHTdBD

Descriptive Language

I've seen thousands of speeches.

Great ones. Good ones. Average ones. Terrible ones.

There are 13 mistakes I repeatedly see speakers make.

These mistakes can reduce your credibility, destroy your confidence, and cause you to be unmemorable and unbooked.

Avoiding the mistakes will take you from being a terrible, average, or good speaker to being a GREAT speaker.

In this carousel I break them all down-what the mistakes are, why they are a mistake, and how you can avoid them.

The biggest mistake I'm most likely to make? #2--too much content!

What mistake are you most likely to make? What would you add to this list?

13 Biggest Mistakes

My 11-year-old participated in the neighborhood chili cookoff today. He named his: “Meat me at the Chili.” 😅

He didn’t win.

I’m totally bias and felt the voting was slanted for a few reasons but that’s besides the point.

The point is you don’t even have a shot at winning if you don’t try.

So…what new thing are you trying today?

The greatest thing missing from your speech might be...

YOU. 

From a content perspective you need to give the speech only you can give based on your stories, your expertise, and your framework. 

But you also need to deliver the speech in the way that only you can deliver it.

So, how do you show up as YOU on the stage? 

How do you demonstrate warmth and authenticity?

In this carousel I break down 5 ways how. 

I'd love to hear from you-what do you think makes someone dynamic on the stage? How do you bring the real you?

5 Ways to Bring the Real You to the Stage

A manager once told me that crossing my arms was unprofessional because I came off as standoffish.

My mom always told me to stop slouching and stand up straight.

Turns out they were right. 

Poor body language can impact the confidence others have in you and the confidence you have in yourself.

Great body language impacts your ability to get a date, a job, and nail a speech. 

In this carousel I unpack what body language is, why it matters, and share 8 practical ways you can up your nonverbal communication.

How's your body language and what would you add to this list?

Body Language

For Halloween my 4-year-old wants to go as his favorite thing in the world…

A slice of pepperoni pizza 🤣🍕😅

So here I am…speech coach by day, pizza slice costume creator by night. 

What are your weekend plans?

Hi, I’m Eva.
When I’m not creating pizza out of cardboard I help CEOS, teams, and professional speakers develop and deliver compelling speeches.

If you don't follow Sean Patton, MBA, ACC yet you should!

Not only is he an amazing speaker and business coach but he also served our country as a U.S. Army Airborne Ranger and Special Forces Green Beret Commander. 

I've had the chance to work with Sean the last several months on his keynote and recently got to guest on his podcast. 

We talked about leadership, storytelling, and how you can create a speech quickly (link to the full episode in the comments). 

I'd love for you to drop below someone you know who has served in the U.S. military 👇 

P.S. If you have a podcast you think I'd be a good guest on send me a DM!

Had a blast guest hosting to celebrate my friend Leslie Becker’s 200th episode of her podcast Unstoppably Creative.

We talked about the commitment & consistency needed to achieve great things, self-revelations that come with milestone birthdays, and how to pivot and embrace the messy as a small business owner.

Guest hosting was a fun stretch and you can listen to the full episode in the comments.

And if you don’t follow Leslie Becker yet you should! She’s brilliant and resiliently optimistic.

What is something fun you’ve done this week? I’d love to hear about it in the comments.
