How To Get Booked On Your First TV Show!
Want to be a national TV expert and build credibility
across the nation? Do you want land big book deals and
major consulting contracts? It all begins with getting
booked on your first TV show in your local market!
Why? The national media will always want to see a “demo”
tape of you in action on a TV show in order to book you.
Local TV usually does NOT require previous media experience
presenting you with an excellent opportunity to land a
segment and obtain the demo video Why does the BIG MEDIA
need to see you on the air? They want to be sure you have
great energy and the ability to handle the lights, camera
and action that takes place on a major TV set.
Do speaking engagements count as a demo? No, because being
a great TV guest requires a different skill set than being
a great speaker. Sound bites make the difference that is,
being able to make strong points in just a few sentences
whereas in speaking you are allowed a lot more time to make
your points.
What are the benefits to my business of appearing on local
TV? Lots of credibility. You can build expert status
within your local and regional area that could lead to lots
more business, more opportunities such as speaking or
consulting with major companies etc. Creating celebrity
appeal your self in your home market is not only great for
business but lots of fun too.
How will local TV experience help me on the nationals?
You’ll increase your comfort level with lights, cameras,
and the process of being on TV. You’ll learn to avoid the
deer in the headlights look plus inexperience not only
makes you look foolish but hurts the producer too as they
are held responsible for your performance, after all, they
booked you in the first place. You don’t want to get a bad
reputation with the media as a poor performer!
Should I add my demo to my website? Absolutely! No
website should be without a demo these days so the producer
can make an immediate decision. In fact, over-nighting a
DVD demo is almost out-dated!
Why is appearing on local or regional TV good for
networking within my community? You put yourself in a great
position for meeting lots of new people and attracting more
opportunities to yourself plus you are showcasing your
talent which can lead to “regular” expert or you being on
the show over and over again. Is appearing on local TV
good for boos sales? Sure, you can sell more books and
products, or even request higher speaking fees. The more
media, the better! Everyone wants to hire a tried and true
expert with a platform of delivering results.
