Why I Want All My Clients to Go to Toastmasters (and Beyond): The Ultimate Speaking Game Plan&nbsp;Hey, it’s Kellen here, and let’s talk about something that can completely level up your career, influence, and bank account: public speaking. If you’re one of my clients, you’ve probably already heard me say it—**you need to become a better speaker. Period.** I’m not saying you’re bad now, but there’s always room for growth, and I have a plan to turn you into a professional speaker who gets paid to talk and dominate every stage. &nbsp;Step 1: Toastmasters Your Speaking Gym&nbsp;&nbsp; Toastmasters is like the gym for your speaking muscles. I need you to attend weekly or biweekly for at least **four months.** Why? Because Toastmasters does more than just make you a better speaker—it builds confidence, improves your delivery, and makes sure you don’t sound like you’re giving a boring PowerPoint presentation. You’ll learn how to own the room, handle Q&amp;As like a boss, and make people actually want to listen to you.&nbsp;This is the foundation. Without it, we can’t move forward. So grab that schedule, find a local group, and get to work.&nbsp;Step 2: National Speakers Association: Learn to Get Paid&nbsp; After about six months of Toastmasters, it’s time to graduate to the National Speakers Association (NSA). This is where the real magic happens—they teach you how to get paid for what you say. NSA is the Harvard of speaking organizations. You’ll learn everything from crafting your signature talk to marketing yourself as a professional speaker.&nbsp;Pro Tip: Paid gigs don’t just fall into your lap; you have to be strategic. NSA gives you the playbook on how to turn your passion into profit. And trust me, once you get that first speaking check, you’ll never want to stop.&nbsp;Step 3: Pitching for TEDx and Big Opportunities&nbsp;&nbsp; Once you’ve sharpened your skills and built your confidence, it’s time to aim for the big leagues. We’ll pitch for TEDx talks and other similar opportunities. Why? Because TEDx is like the Oscars of public speaking—it adds credibility and gives you a platform to reach millions.&nbsp;But here’s the catch: You need to be ready. TEDx isn’t for amateurs; it’s for people who have mastered their craft. That’s why Toastmasters and NSA come first. Once you’re polished, we’ll make sure your pitch stands out and gets you on that red dot.&nbsp;Bonus Moves: Books, Courses, and YouTube&nbsp; Here’s where things get exciting. Being a great speaker isn’t just about standing on stage; it’s about creating multiple streams of income. If you let us help you publish a book, you’ll always have something to sell at events—paid or not. Pair that with online courses, and now you’ve got a way to make money even while you sleep.&nbsp;Oh, and don’t forget YouTube. We can help you monetize your channel, turning your speaking engagements into evergreen content that keeps paying you over time. This isn’t just about being a speaker; it’s about building a personal brand that thrives on and off the stage.&nbsp;Why This Works This plan isn’t just for fun (though we’ll have plenty of that too). It’s about setting you up to succeed in every aspect of your speaking career. You’ll improve your communication skills, gain credibility, and create income streams that last a lifetime. Whether it’s paid gigs, selling books, or building an online audience, you’ll have the tools to dominate.&nbsp;Expand Your Reach: Essential Organizations and Resources for Content Creators Beyond attending major events, serious content creators should also invest in organizations and programs that refine their craft, elevate their presence, and maximize their opportunities. Here are some key resources every content creator should consider:Specialized Conferences and Organizations In addition to general content creation events, creators should explore niche opportunities through organizations like:NACA (National Association for Campus Activities) APCA (Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities) Campus Speaks IACLEA (International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators) COCA (Canadian Organization of Campus Activities) League for Innovation in the Community College EDUCAUSE These organizations provide unique opportunities to showcase your work to campuses, educational institutions, and other specialized audiences.&nbsp;How Coleman Public Relations &amp; Consulting Firm Can Help At Coleman Public Relations &amp; Consulting Firm LLC (CPRFirm.com), we specialize in helping content creators navigate these opportunities. Whether it’s securing gigs, crafting pitches, or preparing you for campus circuits, we ensure that serious creators with a budget don’t have to spend a decade figuring it all out themselves.&nbsp;What We Offer Tailored strategies for joining organizations like NACA, APCA, or EDUCAUSE. Event preparation: From speech coaching to material creation. Networking support: access to contacts and resources to build your brand.Final Thoughts Let me be blunt (with love): If you’re not willing to invest in improving your speaking skills, you’re leaving money—and opportunity—on the table. This plan works, but it requires effort. Toastmasters gives you the basics, NSA shows you how to get paid, and TEDx and similar stages put you on the map.&nbsp;So, are you ready to become a full-time, paid speaker? Let’s get to work—and remember, the mic isn’t just a tool; it’s your ticket to the life you want. Let’s make it happen.<figure id="figure-d4ba0yvhrm3mcn3ux" class=""><img id="d4ba0yvhrm3mcn3ux" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/22oTAqYpvN2ckEGj2N3whHQvX32u7EecPPhraWLcTqMIhDalASFLAfOpHikW7uyu.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-lg md:rounded-xl lg:rounded-2xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="Share your Story Now!" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/22oTAqYpvN2ckEGj2N3whHQvX32u7EecPPhraWLcTqMIhDalASFLAfOpHikW7uyu.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"><figcaption class="body-normal text-gray-500 mt-2">Share your story now!</figcaption></figure>

As an entrepreneur, it reminded me that in today’s information age, we can all learn from how these nations prioritize health, love, and success. Kellen. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; How Often Do People Visit The Doctor?When we think about health and longevity, we often look at healthcare systems and diets, but there’s so much more to the story. The top five countries where people visit the doctor most often—South Korea, Japan, Slovakia, Germany, and Hungary—offer valuable insights into how lifestyle, relationships, and even entrepreneurship can impact life expectancy and overall well-being. Let’s explore what makes these countries thrive and what lessons we can apply to our own lives. 1. South Korea: The Longevity LeaderLife Expectancy: 83.6 yearsMarriage: Family and marriage are central to South Korean culture.

Americans also face challenges with stress from entrepreneurship, less emphasis on marriage, and higher rates of diet-related chronic illnesses.Lessons for Healthier Living1. Prioritize Preventive Care: Countries like South Korea and Japan show that frequent doctor visits and early interventions save lives.2. Strengthen Relationships: Marriage and family support systems contribute to healthier habits and mental well-being.3. Focus on Diet: A balanced diet with whole, unprocessed foods is a common thread among the healthiest nations.4. Support Entrepreneurs: Affordable healthcare systems reduce stress and allow people to pursue business goals without compromising their health.5. Promote Sexual Health: Open access to sexual health education and services is vital for overall well-being.By adopting these principles, we can create a healthier society that values longevity, innovation, and happiness.

The Secret to Living Longer: What the Top 5 Healthiest Nations Can Teach Us About Life, Love, and Success

<h2>The Evolution of Public Relations</h2>Public relations (PR) has undergone significant transformations over the past few decades, adapting to the rapidly changing media landscape. As we look to the future, experts at Coleman Public Relations are identifying key trends and insights that will shape the industry. From the integration of advanced technology to the growing importance of corporate social responsibility, the future of PR is both exciting and challenging.One of the most notable trends is the increasing reliance on data analytics. PR professionals are now leveraging data to craft more effective campaigns, understand audience behavior, and measure the impact of their efforts. This data-driven approach allows for more precise targeting and personalization, ensuring that messages resonate with the intended audience.<figure id="figure-nhbm3fym8rm3keoz59"><img id="nhbm3fym8rm3keoz59" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1666875753105-c63a6f3bdc86?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwxfHxkYXRhJTIwYW5hbHl0aWNzfGVufDB8fHx8MTczMTcwNDkzNXww&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=1080" alt="data analytics" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9"></figure><h2>The Rise of Digital and Social Media</h2>Digital and social media platforms have revolutionized the way PR operates. With billions of users worldwide, platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram offer unparalleled opportunities for brands to engage with their audience. However, this also means that PR professionals must be adept at navigating these platforms and crafting content that stands out in a crowded digital space.Influencer marketing has emerged as a powerful tool in the PR arsenal. Collaborating with influencers who have a strong following can help brands reach new audiences and build credibility. The key is to find the right influencers whose values align with the brand's message.<figure id="figure-8tmtfzdb5m3keoz59"><img id="8tmtfzdb5m3keoz59" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1517292987719-0369a794ec0f?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwxfHxzb2NpYWwlMjBtZWRpYXxlbnwwfHx8fDE3MzE2OTA2MzJ8MA&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=1080" alt="social media" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9"></figure><h2>Emphasis on Authenticity and Transparency</h2>In today's world, consumers are more informed and discerning than ever before. They demand authenticity and transparency from the brands they support. PR professionals must ensure that their communications are genuine and transparent, building trust with their audience. This involves being open about company practices, addressing any issues head-on, and maintaining a consistent and honest dialogue with stakeholders.Moreover, the rise of social justice movements has put a spotlight on corporate social responsibility (CSR). Companies are expected to take a stand on important social issues and contribute positively to society. PR campaigns that highlight a brand's commitment to CSR can significantly enhance its reputation and foster loyalty among consumers.<figure id="figure-mpaj9m1odgm3keoz59"><img id="mpaj9m1odgm3keoz59" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1507679799987-c73779587ccf?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwxfHxjb3Jwb3JhdGUlMjByZXNwb25zaWJpbGl0eXxlbnwwfHx8fDE3MzE2OTQ2MjR8MA&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=1080" alt="corporate responsibility" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9"></figure><h2>Integrating Technology and Innovation</h2>Technology continues to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of PR. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are being used to analyze vast amounts of data, predict trends, and automate routine tasks. This allows PR professionals to focus on more strategic aspects of their work, such as crafting compelling narratives and building relationships with key stakeholders.Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are also making their way into the PR toolkit. These technologies offer immersive experiences that can captivate audiences and create memorable brand interactions. For instance, a VR tour of a new product or an AR-enhanced press release can generate excitement and engagement.<figure id="figure-01d6b9srtfm3keoz59"><img id="01d6b9srtfm3keoz59" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1617802690658-1173a812650d?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwxfHx2aXJ0dWFsJTIwcmVhbGl0eXxlbnwwfHx8fDE3MzE3MDUzNDJ8MA&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=1080" alt="virtual reality" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9"></figure><h2>The Importance of Crisis Management</h2>In an era where news spreads rapidly, effective crisis management is more critical than ever. PR professionals must be prepared to respond swiftly and effectively to any negative incidents that could harm a brand's reputation. This involves having a well-thought-out crisis communication plan in place and being able to adapt quickly to changing circumstances.Building strong relationships with the media and other key stakeholders is essential for successful crisis management. By maintaining open lines of communication and providing timely, accurate information, PR professionals can help mitigate the impact of a crisis and restore public trust.As we move forward, the role of PR will continue to evolve, driven by advancements in technology, changing consumer expectations, and the ever-shifting media landscape. By staying ahead of these trends and embracing innovation, PR professionals can ensure that their strategies remain effective and relevant in the years to come.

By 19 or 20, you’ll have valuable skills, VA medical benefits for life, and, if qualified as a veteran, the ability to buy your first home with no down payment using a VA loan. &nbsp;Step 2: Earn Your CDL and Specialized EndorsementsWith the GI Bill, get your CDL and add endorsements like doubles, triples, and hazmat—it’s not hard and highly lucrative. From personal experience, you can earn $10k+ a month. Add crane operator training, and your earning potential skyrockets.&nbsp;Within the year, get your TWIC card to unlock $10k opportunities hauling $1M cargo, driving routes like Texas to California in just four days.&nbsp;Step 3: Fully Fund and Front-Load Your 401(k)Once you’re earning—whether in the military, college, trucking, or a trade job—start fully funding your 401(k). Front-load contributions if possible, putting the maximum amount in early to let compound interest work its magic. &nbsp;For example: &nbsp; If you invest the max ($22,500/year as of 2024) starting at age 21 and continue until age 65, you could retire with $4–6 million, depending on investment returns.&nbsp; The earlier you start, the more significant your gains—thanks to the power of compounding over decades.&nbsp;This approach builds wealth and ensures you stay debt-free and financially secure.&nbsp;How Coleman Public Relations and Consulting Can Help Planning your future doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Whether you’re an entrepreneur or exploring other opportunities, Coleman Public Relations and Consulting is here to help. We do life with you—guiding your journey and creating a strategy to achieve your goals.

Additionally, if you take a full load of classes, including summer school, and start basic courses while in the military (depending on your assignment), you can also earn a bachelor’s degree. This strong financial, educational, and professional base will set you up for a life of independence and success. Final ThoughtsYour future starts now. Combine discipline, skills, and smart financial planning to achieve your dreams. Even if it takes an extra two years of military service or schooling, you’ll be in a far better position than most who graduate with debt or struggle to find a job.I’m sure some will doubt this plan, basing their skepticism on their lack of success or past experiences in the military, school, or as a driver. This message isn’t for them, and I don’t want you to follow in in their footsteps.Keep God first, and focus on your purpose more than parties, clubs, or social media. Shift your energy from fun to funds, so you can have a true “fiesta fiesta” of a life later.God willing, in the future, I’ll write a plan explaining why nursing is the best and most guaranteed bachelor’s degree to pursue. The world always needs more nurses, while other degrees are optional or lead to low-paying jobs.Share this plan with someone ready to succeed—and take the first step today!<figure id="figure-02wue4kt78m3km1wcr" class=""><img id="02wue4kt78m3km1wcr" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/39o6K7FnB3VGbJNmw0OZwcdxSTHKR9Jqce3xY1GrjVq59B8JMs28hkbaVF7pdlsp.png" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-lg md:rounded-xl lg:rounded-2xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/39o6K7FnB3VGbJNmw0OZwcdxSTHKR9Jqce3xY1GrjVq59B8JMs28hkbaVF7pdlsp.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>

A key part of our work is ensuring that no matter how much money you have or make, you’re positioned to avoid retiring broke.While we’re not financial advisors yet, we believe financial stability is a critical part of long-term success. Managing debt and improving credit health are essential steps toward securing your future. Here’s a practical guide to help you get started:Conduct an Initial Credit Review Start by pulling your credit reports from Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. This will provide a full picture of your credit status and help identify areas that need attention. Identify Inaccuracies and Negative Items Carefully review your credit reports for errors, outdated information, or unauthorized accounts. Spotting inaccuracies is the first step to improving your credit. Decide Between Freezing or Disputing First Dispute First: Begin by disputing inaccuracies or negative items. Addressing these issues can directly improve your credit score. When to Freeze: Freeze your credit if you’re at risk of identity theft or unauthorized accounts. This protects you from new lines of credit being opened but doesn’t impact existing accounts or scores. Submit Disputes File disputes with the credit bureaus online or by mail for any incorrect or outdated items. Include evidence such as account statements or correspondence to strengthen your claims. Wait for Resolutions Credit bureaus typically have 30 days to investigate disputes. During this time, they verify the information with creditors and make updates as needed. Pay Down Balances Work on paying off outstanding balances, prioritizing high-interest debts and collections. Lowering balances improves your credit utilization rate, which plays a big role in your credit score. Freeze Credit After Resolving Disputes Once disputes are resolved, consider freezing your credit to protect against potential identity theft and unauthorized inquiries. Monitor Your Progress Regularly check your credit score and reports to track changes and stay alert to any suspicious activity. Credit monitoring services can be a helpful tool for this. Financial security starts with small, intentional steps.
