Those who can, do. Those who can't...there's always motivational speaking

My company's annual Users Conference is next month, and we always feature several keynote speakers at our conference. Over the years we have featured people who have done extraordinary things, and people who have found themselves in extraordinary situations.

But over the weekend I encountered a motivational speaker who has never crossed our radar. Perhaps you've heard of him.

You know you’re capable of more if only you could…

Tell your story in such a powerful way you touch people’s hearts and move them to action
Stand in front of a group of dozens…hundreds…or even thousands with confidence
Create financial freedom for yourself and your family by sharing your message
Sounds fantastic…But it’s scary, isn’t it?

You risk rejection and the pain of being told “no.”

So you’re torn between taking a chance and going for it or playing safe and small while your heart aches with disappointment that you’re not going after your dream.

And you’re just a little jealous when you see someone else make it and you know you have a bigger message and could make an even bigger impact.

If only…


Yes, this speaker has taken a risk and faced rejection. His story continues.

Hi, this is William Hung. That’s right, the person who’s failed audition on American Idol has been viewed more than 5 million times on YouTube.

But what looked like a humiliating failure, actually turned out to be my greatest opportunity.

I was in the media. I got a recording contract. I had a part in a movie and on the popular show, Arrested Development.

That all happened ONLY because I took a chance and failed.



Here's his speaker demo reel.



I was unable to find his speaker's fee, but it's safe to say that he doesn't command Richard Branson rates.
