My tip for you today

Just a few days before a recent cruise I was told that the line has its own house style for enrichment speakers’ PowerPoint presentations. I had 5 talks with 80 to 90 slides in each!!! And I had two days to pack, put business on hold and re-format all my presentations.

blue_caves_anti_paxosSo my tip for today – always check in plenty of time if the cruise line you are speaking for has any special requirements – such as a corporate template for you slides. That way you’ll have plenty of time to comply!

And if you are not already cruising FREE with SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE then I suggest you get yourself signed up NOW to get your FREE cruise vacations planned soonest.

Happy FREE cruising with SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE. It works! It really works!! Smile

Saying “Thank You”

At the end of each cruise I always say “thank you” to the team on board.

SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE is a network of great speakers and I know that my behavior reflects on all our members. Just as your behavior reflects on me and everyone else.

SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE Is a real find. So I try to do the right thing to build up the reputation of all our speakers. If I behave well and say “thank you” I hope that you will get a warm reception next time you step on the same ship for a speaker cruise.

I hope that you will show the rest of us the same respect.DSCF0205

And it is amazing just how far a little courtesy can go. We have had invitations to cocktail parties and even occasionally to the Captain’s table, because we are seen to show respect.

If you are not already cruising free I suggest you click  HERE – and do it now.

And next time you are cruising FREE do please remember to say “thank you”. Smile

Colors of Fall

In the UK and Canada we are celebrating our Harvest Festivals, or Thanksgiving. Earlier than Thanksgiving in the USA, we too take the opportunity to be grateful for the bounty that we enjoy.

On Thursday Kathy & I set off on our next bountiful adventure, thanks to DANIEL_HALL and SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM.

This is our last planned cruise of 2010, and I will be speaking on a great itinerary heading to New England and Canada to see the Fall colors. Over on this side of the "Pond" we call Fall "Autumn". But on both sides it is traditionally a time to be grateful for the gifts that we receive.

Amongst the many gifts that we have been given the gift of free cruising is certainly a wonderful one.

If you are not already cruising free click HERE now to find out more.

Thank you DANIEL. Thank you SPEAKERS_CRUISEFREE.COM.

Happy cruising - FREE,

Andrew

Liberate Yourself

I was talking to a great potential speaker just the other day, who said to me "I couldn't do that! I'm not worthy"!!!

We cruise free through Daniel Hall's great network scheme SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM and I know that this lady would be a very popular speaker. She has great stories to tell and is just so informative. It reminded me of what Marianne Williamson said in her book A Return to Love, published in 1992 -

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us. We ask ourselves "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that others won't feel insecure around you.

"We are all meant to shine, as children do. .... As we let our own light shine, we subconciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I'll do my best to liberate others by demonstrating that I allow myself to be liberated.

Liberate yourself now to cruise the world's waters for FREE by joining the SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM network of speakers and friends.

Happy cruising FREE.

Are you cruising free? If not why not? We all cruise free, in exchange for just an hour of our time on each sea day. Yes really.

Plan Early

When we first started cruising for FREE we simply asked "where would you like to send us?" And we had some great cruises.

But over the years we've become a little pickier. Thanks to SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM we have cruised all around the world - and all of it has been FREE! We have had some wonderful experiences, many unexpected. We have dined with several captains, been invited onto the bridge for sail aways, entertained by cruise directors, thanked by enrichment coordinators, and (best of all) invited back over and over.

Now we choose where we want to go next and get our requests in early.

Our main cruises for next year are already booked, based mainly on a series of re-positioning cruises that form the major legs of a 2 month round the world trip to mark a "big" birthday. And guess what! The cruises are FREE thanks to SPREAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM.

If you haven't booked your FREE cruise(s) yet for next year, do yourselves and the cruise lines a favor and get on with it. Don't worry. You won't upset us. We're already booked. :-)

And if you're not signed up yet with SPEAKERS_CRUISE_FREE.COM do it now and get planning. Click HERE now.

Happy cruising - FREE

Blow your own Trumpet

On a recent SpeakersCruiseFree.com cruise the speakers were given a very warm welcome by the cruise staff. BUT we were warned to expect very small audiences - even in single figures!!!

Well I don't give in that easily. SO - I set about getting folks in -

1) I sent the cruise Director a question or a message to read each day on his TV show. He did!

2) With his permission I put a card on the community bulletin board each day highlighting my talks

3) I got together with 2 of the other 3 speakers to talk up our sessions around the ship.

The result? I was getting 40 plus in my audience. The craft group leader was getting nearly 50. Both beat every record on this itinerary by a mile! Now to be honest I'm not used to audiences that small. But the cruise director and his staff were impressed that we could get audiences that big!! And we had folks stopping us around the ship. New questions kept coming up, and we certainly contributed to enriching the cruise for many passengers.

This was yet another SpeakersCruiseFree.com cruise. Once more Kathy & I were cruising for FREE. What a great life.

If you are not yet cruising FREE don't wait click HERE today.

Happy cruising FREE!

Make the most of the many, and outstanding contacts you will meet while cruising free.

Keep connected

On a recent cruise I witnessed a fellow speaker die on stage. In truth it was his laptop that died. But, as his audience left the theatre disappointed, he panicked. The battery was flat and he had not brought the cable with him!

He also had no back up copy of his presentation.

He was a great speaker with PowerPoint - but not too hot without.

So a tip - always carry backups of your presentations - DVD, flah drive, memory card - always carry multiple copies; and always keep your laptop plugged in while speaking.

Simple really.

Oh and of course - make the connection with DanielHall at SpeakersCruiseFree.com to sign up for a world of free cruising.

Happy cruising - FREE of course!!

Name that Ship!!!

While we are cruising (free of course, thanks to SpeakersCruiseFree.com) I make a point of taking a good number of photos as we go. You know the sort of thing, port shots, tendering, the local highlights, local markets, ice cream bars - in fact pretty much anything!

Then, back in the stateroom, or back in my office I quickly categorise them into general categories - Italian ports, Caribbean, cruise lines etc., etc.

That way I can enhance my presentations, whether they are enrichment or destination. I always show shots of our ship arriving in, or docked in a few of our destinations - it shows an attention to detail - and it shows a link to the cruise line.

So my tip for today is simple; just keep adding to your talks and your visual support material to make them more and more relevant to the cruise you're on. Why? Well that's simple:- the cruise director's staff notice these things! And so do the passengers.

And if you are not already signed up to SpeakersCruiseFree.com then do yourself a big favor and click HERE NOW!

Happy cruising - FREE of course!!
