Listen "From Stage To Screen: Mastering The Speaker Reel with Cam Beaudoin"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textEvent planners don’t have time to watch your full TED talk. They need three minutes that prove who you serve, the problem you solve, and the transformation you deliver. We sit down with Cam Beaudoin, founder of The Frequent Speaker, to map the exact steps that turn a jumble of clips into a demo reel that books bigger rooms and better podcasts.We start with intent: are you chasing large conference stages or thriving in virtual training? Cam explains how to align your reel with your goals, showing either stage craft—movement, energy, and crowd interaction—or virtual mastery with clean, close-up delivery and crisp audio. From there, we break down the story spine that converts: a seven-second hook that calls your audience by name, problem definition that cuts through noise, proof that you’re the guide they need, and a direct call to action. You’ll hear why planners want clarity over montage, how fee tiers dictate brand expectations, and what truly signals “bookable” within seconds.Cam shares smart ways to create proof when you lack big-stage footage: rent a professional studio, capture a two-camera interview, and layer in podcasts, media hits, and focused B-roll that reinforces authority. We cover what to avoid—generic stock, celebrity name-drops that redirect attention, and “friends-and-family” crowds that feel staged. You’ll also learn when to refresh your reel, how much to invest as your fee grows, and how podcasters can use a guest reel to climb into premium shows by demonstrating specific value for listeners.If you’re ready to stop sending long links and start sending proof that sells, this conversation gives you the blueprint. Subscribe, share with a friend who’s levelling up their speaking, and leave a review with the hook you’ll use in your next reel.Support the showGot a question about something you heard today?
