Transcripts

Speaker:

We've got a bumper episode for you today.

Speaker:

We have 50 ways to upsell

Speaker:

your influencer campaign.

Speaker:

That's 50 ways to potentially.

Speaker:

Increase your revenue.

Speaker:

That is the money that you

Speaker:

earn from working with a brand

Speaker:

by upselling and creating

Speaker:

opportunities to work with the brand.

Speaker:

So what is an upsell?

Speaker:

An upsell is a way for you to

Speaker:

encourage a brand to purchase extra

Speaker:

deliverables from you on a campaign.

Speaker:

And when you can demonstrate

Speaker:

value in the upsell, you'll

Speaker:

benefit by earning extra money.

Speaker:

And the brand also benefits through

Speaker:

additional content and engagement.

Speaker:

It's a win-win.

Speaker:

So to today's episode, if you've listened

Speaker:

to previous episodes, firstly, thank you.

Speaker:

And secondly, you'll know that I like to

Speaker:

structure podcast episodes in segments

Speaker:

so you know exactly what to expect.

Speaker:

So when we are talking about the

Speaker:

upsells today, these have been segmented

Speaker:

into three different categories.

Speaker:

First of all, category

Speaker:

one is the easy category.

Speaker:

Now these are pricing opportunities or

Speaker:

upsells that represent quick wins and

Speaker:

easy upsell options that can really.

Speaker:

Seamlessly be incorporated into

Speaker:

every campaign quote that you do.

Speaker:

And by including these simple

Speaker:

additions, you can provide immediate

Speaker:

value and enhance the overall

Speaker:

deliverables for the campaign.

Speaker:

Next up, there's the

Speaker:

intermediate category.

Speaker:

These upsells are increasing in

Speaker:

complexity and require a moderate

Speaker:

amount of time and resources invested.

Speaker:

And while they might require some

Speaker:

additional planning and implementation,

Speaker:

they do present a valuable chance

Speaker:

to enhance your campaign's impact

Speaker:

and to provide brands with more

Speaker:

comprehensive and refine deliverables.

Speaker:

And then finally we have

Speaker:

the advanced upsells.

Speaker:

And these advanced upsells are

Speaker:

strategic concepts that require far more

Speaker:

thoughtful consideration and negotiation.

Speaker:

And it's because these advanced upsell

Speaker:

opportunities, Often involve longer

Speaker:

development cycles and larger budgets

Speaker:

from the brand, but I don't want you to

Speaker:

be deterred by these advanced upsells

Speaker:

because if you confidently pitch

Speaker:

these, they can lead to significantly

Speaker:

improved revenue or income or money.

Speaker:

And deeper brand relationships.

Speaker:

You need to embrace the

Speaker:

potential of these opportunities.

Speaker:

And I can say from experience

Speaker:

that I've secured many.

Speaker:

Many upsells by confidently pitching

Speaker:

these advanced level, brand partnerships.

Speaker:

And you might be surprised that

Speaker:

brands often invite and are

Speaker:

interested to hear about these bigger

Speaker:

opportunities to work with talent.

Speaker:

If you can confidently put forward these

Speaker:

upsells, the brand can A, have those

Speaker:

deeper relationships that we spoke about

Speaker:

and it means that they don't need to

Speaker:

spread their campaign budget as broadly.

Speaker:

They can give you more of

Speaker:

them money that they've.

Speaker:

Allocated for this campaign because

Speaker:

you've come to the table and said,

Speaker:

Hey, I know that you are proposing we

Speaker:

do these components of a campaign or

Speaker:

these deliverables here, but how about

Speaker:

we incorporate these elements as well,

Speaker:

because this is how it's gonna work

Speaker:

really well for your campaign messaging.

Speaker:

And then you can step through why

Speaker:

you can deliver those great results.

Speaker:

And we spoke a little bit about

Speaker:

how you can position those

Speaker:

statements in the previous.

Speaker:

Episode, episode two,

Speaker:

pricing Your Campaign.

Speaker:

So if you haven't already done so,

Speaker:

go back and listen to that episode

Speaker:

after you've finished today's episode.

Speaker:

But for now, let's get started.

Speaker:

We are gonna get the ball rolling

Speaker:

with 15 E easy upsells that you

Speaker:

should be able to incorporate

Speaker:

into every quote that you produce.

Speaker:

Number one, add the brand.

Speaker:

Tag to your social media bio.

Speaker:

So your bio is really valuable.

Speaker:

Real estate on every platform make

Speaker:

it available to the brands easy.

Speaker:

And while we're talking about

Speaker:

the bio, add a link in the bio

Speaker:

to a brand nominated U R L.

Speaker:

So it might be the date of the post

Speaker:

that you are doing, plus one week.

Speaker:

Number three still on

Speaker:

Lincoln Bio, but upsell.

Speaker:

The upsell.

Speaker:

Offer a top one, two, or three

Speaker:

position for a certain period of time.

Speaker:

For example, you can offer the

Speaker:

brand, the top one position,

Speaker:

Lincoln Bio for three months.

Speaker:

Number four.

Speaker:

A pinned post on the platform,

Speaker:

all the platforms have an

Speaker:

option to pin or feature a post.

Speaker:

Make it available to the brands.

Speaker:

Number five, Instagram stories

Speaker:

expand the number of frames

Speaker:

in an Instagram story set.

Speaker:

So perhaps the client has come

Speaker:

to you, the brand's come to you

Speaker:

and said, we want an Instagram

Speaker:

story or an Instagram story set.

Speaker:

Say minimum of three frames.

Speaker:

Upsell that to five frames.

Speaker:

Number six, Instagram story highlights.

Speaker:

It's an obvious one.

Speaker:

Add the brand content to your

Speaker:

Instagram story highlights.

Speaker:

Number seven, Instagram story.

Speaker:

Swipe up link.

Speaker:

Really simple, straightforward,

Speaker:

but add that brand nominated

Speaker:

URL to Instagram stories.

Speaker:

Number eight, publication of

Speaker:

content on your other platforms.

Speaker:

So offer to publish the brand

Speaker:

content on your additional platforms.

Speaker:

So if you are creating a TikTok

Speaker:

Post offer to publish it on your

Speaker:

Instagram channel, or you might

Speaker:

wanna push it out through YouTube.

Speaker:

There's lots of different ways that

Speaker:

you can populate that content across

Speaker:

your other social media platforms.

Speaker:

Number nine, create a TikTok

Speaker:

playlist of brand content.

Speaker:

If you haven't used TikTok playlist

Speaker:

before, do a quick search on how

Speaker:

you can, uh, develop one of these.

Speaker:

But it's a great tool that

Speaker:

you can offer to brands.

Speaker:

Number 10, subtitles

Speaker:

in the video content.

Speaker:

Most of us would be using or often

Speaker:

using subtitles in your video content.

Speaker:

Make sure that you can bring forward

Speaker:

and highlight the brand cost to

Speaker:

action in your video subtitles.

Speaker:

Number 11, always on content.

Speaker:

You can offer to be

Speaker:

always on for the brand.

Speaker:

So that means you create and publish

Speaker:

content when it's natural and authentic

Speaker:

for you to do so, rather than, um,

Speaker:

just deliver the set number of, uh,

Speaker:

content deliverables that you've agreed.

Speaker:

Number 12, create additional

Speaker:

u gc user generator content

Speaker:

assets for the brand to use.

Speaker:

So you might be shooting some still

Speaker:

content, uh, to push out on your

Speaker:

channel, rack off another, uh, six

Speaker:

photographs and supply those to the brand

Speaker:

for them to use at their discretion.

Speaker:

And you can set some

Speaker:

parameters around that using.

Speaker:

Number 13, allowance for boosted

Speaker:

content across your channels,

Speaker:

across the talent channels.

Speaker:

So you need to define that quite

Speaker:

well in the scope of works, and

Speaker:

we can help you define this.

Speaker:

We'll do a deep dive into scope of

Speaker:

works in a future episode coming up,

Speaker:

I think around episode six or seven,

Speaker:

but you can give that allowance for the

Speaker:

boosted content across your channels.

Speaker:

Number 14, guarantee that the content

Speaker:

will be live for X period of time.

Speaker:

So guarantee that you'll keep the post

Speaker:

live on your channel for an extended

Speaker:

period of time after the campaign ends

Speaker:

without archiving it or deleting it.

Speaker:

number 15, E D M or

Speaker:

newsletter inclusions.

Speaker:

If you write a newsletter, you can

Speaker:

write a snippet or piece of content to

Speaker:

include in your newsletter and include

Speaker:

links back to the content that you've

Speaker:

produced to the brand, or links to

Speaker:

another U R L nominated by the brand.

Speaker:

Number 16, EDM or newsletter writes for

Speaker:

the brand, so you can give rights to the

Speaker:

brand to publish your content, distribute

Speaker:

your content through their newsletter.

Speaker:

Number 17, in engagement

Speaker:

on brand content.

Speaker:

This is so easy, this one, and I rarely

Speaker:

see it offered, so you can commit

Speaker:

to commenting, posting, or sharing.

Speaker:

Content that the brand

Speaker:

produces on their own channel.

Speaker:

So this is not content that you have

Speaker:

produced, it's just brand content and

Speaker:

you engage and interact with that content

Speaker:

to improve the brand's engagement.

Speaker:

Number 18, wearing of branded

Speaker:

apparel when creating content.

Speaker:

Oh, this is so easy.

Speaker:

Whether it's a cap, it might be a

Speaker:

shirt, you might be a food creator.

Speaker:

You can wear an apron.

Speaker:

There's lots of different ways

Speaker:

to incorporate branded apparel.

Speaker:

You might be a vet, doctor It

Speaker:

doesn't matter what you do.

Speaker:

Branded apparel is so easy to introduce

Speaker:

into your content and another way to

Speaker:

extend that brand messaging through

Speaker:

the content that you are producing.

Speaker:

Number nineteen's a really fun one,

Speaker:

and that is to create a branded.

Speaker:

Music playlist for Spotify.

Speaker:

So curate a playlist of trending

Speaker:

music or songs in collaboration with

Speaker:

the brand for your audience to listen

Speaker:

to when they're not on socials.

Speaker:

I mean, let's face it, most of us

Speaker:

are on social a lot of the time, but

Speaker:

we do need to step away from that.

Speaker:

So it could be a playlist

Speaker:

that, if you are a, a fitness.

Speaker:

Creator.

Speaker:

It might be music that can be played

Speaker:

at the gym or while doing a workout.

Speaker:

It could be cooking music,

Speaker:

it could be whatever.

Speaker:

Uh, relaxing music to

Speaker:

play when you're at home.

Speaker:

Just chilling.

Speaker:

But it's a really nice way, again,

Speaker:

to extend that brand relationship

Speaker:

and extremely easy to do.

Speaker:

That was 19 easy upsells.

Speaker:

We are now going to go into the

Speaker:

intermediate upsells, and I've

Speaker:

got 21 of these for you today.

Speaker:

So here we go.

Speaker:

Number 20, premium quality content offer

Speaker:

to create higher quality content with

Speaker:

enhanced production value for the brand.

Speaker:

So rather than doing a quick shoot

Speaker:

and post with your smartphone up the

Speaker:

production value, extra lighting,

Speaker:

extra styling, extra post-production,

Speaker:

produce, premium quality content.

Speaker:

Number 21, a Collaborate video series.

Speaker:

Create a video series that can be

Speaker:

published as a curated series on

Speaker:

TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram number 22.

Speaker:

Product giveaways.

Speaker:

This is probably could have gone

Speaker:

into the easy category, but it

Speaker:

just requires a little bit more

Speaker:

planning, which is why it's slipped

Speaker:

into the intermediate section.

Speaker:

So you can offer to host a giveaway

Speaker:

of brand product to your audience.

Speaker:

and you just wanna make sure that the

Speaker:

brand is responsible for dispatching

Speaker:

the product within a nominated

Speaker:

timeframe and takes care of all the

Speaker:

backend logistics of the giveaway.

Speaker:

Number 23 personalized product bundles.

Speaker:

Curate personalized product or service

Speaker:

bundles that combine the brand's

Speaker:

offering with your recommendations.

Speaker:

So you might be a travel blogger

Speaker:

and you could be working with a

Speaker:

hotel group and you can curate a

Speaker:

list of top five romantic hotels to

Speaker:

stay in , for a loved up weekend.

Speaker:

Or you might be a makeup, creator,

Speaker:

and you can curate a list of brand

Speaker:

products, , top five products to

Speaker:

achieve the ultimate smokey eye.

Speaker:

For date night, you might be

Speaker:

a pet blogger and you can work

Speaker:

with say, a pet food brand on

Speaker:

the top five things to feed your.

Speaker:

Highly active dog.

Speaker:

There's lots of different ways you

Speaker:

can work with the brands, products,

Speaker:

and service offerings to create or

Speaker:

curate a list of recommendations.

Speaker:

Number 24, live event coverage.

Speaker:

Offer to cover and promote brand

Speaker:

events or activations via live

Speaker:

streaming or event specific content.

Speaker:

Number 25 Instagram guide.

Speaker:

This is the underrated Instagram

Speaker:

feature you are probably not using.

Speaker:

Create an Instagram guide.

Speaker:

Instagram guides are.

Speaker:

, like miniature blogs on your

Speaker:

Instagram channel and they

Speaker:

appear up, , alongside your grid.

Speaker:

Your reels, , tabs from your homepage

Speaker:

of your Instagram channel, and they

Speaker:

present really, really well and

Speaker:

they offer huge values to brands.

Speaker:

This one is such an easy upsell

Speaker:

number 26 v i p experience.

Speaker:

Collaborate with the brand to

Speaker:

provide, , unique experiences

Speaker:

or perks to your audience.

Speaker:

Things like exclusive events behind the

Speaker:

scenes, early access to new products.

Speaker:

Number 27, which is

Speaker:

extension of usage rights.

Speaker:

You can provide the

Speaker:

brand with the option.

Speaker:

To use your content beyond the campaign

Speaker:

duration or across multiple platforms.

Speaker:

Now, again, this one could go in the

Speaker:

easy, but because you need to really

Speaker:

clearly define the usage rights

Speaker:

in your scope of works, I've put

Speaker:

it into the intermediate section.

Speaker:

Number 28, licensing of static

Speaker:

images for use by the brand.

Speaker:

Now you can assign rights,

Speaker:

which is called licensing for

Speaker:

the brand to use your images.

Speaker:

You might give full assignment of

Speaker:

rights or restricted usage rights.

Speaker:

There's lots of different ways

Speaker:

that you can structure this.

Speaker:

, good news.

Speaker:

We have an expert intellectual

Speaker:

property lawyer joining us for

Speaker:

an episode soon to discuss this.

Speaker:

In more detail and how

Speaker:

to manage that process.

Speaker:

But if it's something that you need

Speaker:

to jump into and you're not sure how

Speaker:

to do, send me a dm, , on Instagram or

Speaker:

shoot me through an email and I can help

Speaker:

you, manage those initial, questions

Speaker:

that you have about licensing number

Speaker:

29, same thing, but license for use of.

Speaker:

Video content.

Speaker:

Now, video content can be a really

Speaker:

good one for brands to license

Speaker:

because they might wanna use

Speaker:

it in shopping center displays.

Speaker:

You know, when you walk around,

Speaker:

Mega malls and shopping centers.

Speaker:

There's all the digital displays.

Speaker:

Great place for brands to place

Speaker:

content, and I see a lot of creator

Speaker:

content on these digital, shopping

Speaker:

center displays, also in-store display

Speaker:

and other out of home advertising.

Speaker:

So licensing of video content

Speaker:

is also a great upsell.

Speaker:

Number 30, creation of

Speaker:

downloadables for your channels.

Speaker:

Everyone loves a downloadable, and

Speaker:

you can have lots of fun with these.

Speaker:

So to number 31, you can create a

Speaker:

downloadable for the brand channel.

Speaker:

So rather than host the downloadable

Speaker:

on your channel, you can have it

Speaker:

hosted over on the brand channel.

Speaker:

Number 32 is a blog post.

Speaker:

Blogs continue to be extremely valuable

Speaker:

content for lead generation brand

Speaker:

awareness and s e o, and they are

Speaker:

still very popular with consumers.

Speaker:

A recent HubSpot study actually

Speaker:

found that 60% of people read a

Speaker:

blog once a week, and in fact, many

Speaker:

read more than one blog a week.

Speaker:

I probably read at at

Speaker:

least half a dozen a day.

Speaker:

I'm clearly outside of

Speaker:

the, the standard, but.

Speaker:

Blog content is very valuable content,

Speaker:

so blogs won't move out of the

Speaker:

influencer marketing space anytime soon.

Speaker:

So if you've got a blog, upsell, a blog

Speaker:

post and include a back link to the

Speaker:

brand nominated url, the brand calls

Speaker:

to action, and a minimum of say three

Speaker:

to four image assets in your blog.

Speaker:

Beautiful.

Speaker:

We call that upsell, M F J money for jam.

Speaker:

There is always good

Speaker:

budget for this activity.

Speaker:

, we have talent that.

Speaker:

Regularly receive more than $15,000

Speaker:

per blog post, and we then go on

Speaker:

to bundle blog content and produce

Speaker:

multiple pieces of blog content.

Speaker:

And there you have an excellent example

Speaker:

of how valuable and upsell can be for

Speaker:

your revenue, for your brand income.

Speaker:

Number 33.

Speaker:

We're not just going to do that

Speaker:

blog, we're gonna offer it as a

Speaker:

featured blog post on your website.

Speaker:

So if you've got a blog, you

Speaker:

know that you'll have a spot

Speaker:

that you can pin your blog post.

Speaker:

So they're in the featured

Speaker:

section on the home page and

Speaker:

the blog page of your website.

Speaker:

Then number 34, we're gonna take that

Speaker:

blog post and share it in your edm.

Speaker:

So we've written the blog post,

Speaker:

we've published it, we've given it

Speaker:

a featured position on your website.

Speaker:

Now we're gonna send it out , to

Speaker:

your newsletter subscribers.

Speaker:

Number 35.

Speaker:

You can offer embedded

Speaker:

ads in your blog posts.

Speaker:

So this might not be, uh, ads in a

Speaker:

post that you've done for the brand.

Speaker:

It could be across your entire website.

Speaker:

So all of the blog posts you've got on

Speaker:

your website for the last three months or

Speaker:

whatever the criteria is, you can embed.

Speaker:

Add content on your website

Speaker:

within the blogs, individual

Speaker:

blog pages that you have.

Speaker:

Number 36, guest blogging.

Speaker:

Create blog content and beautiful

Speaker:

image assets for publication

Speaker:

on the brand's website.

Speaker:

Great for beauty, fashion,

Speaker:

food, lifestyle, home.

Speaker:

Actually all verticals create.

Speaker:

Blog content as a guest

Speaker:

blogger for the brand number 37

Speaker:

website advertising , banner.

Speaker:

The brand can supply an ad or assets to

Speaker:

create the ad, uh, to be placed on the

Speaker:

homepage above the fold, on your website.

Speaker:

Again, advertising beautiful, easy peasy.

Speaker:

Number 38 pr.

Speaker:

You can provide quotes and image assets

Speaker:

for the brand to use in their PR efforts.

Speaker:

Now this has been.

Speaker:

Increasingly requested of talent.

Speaker:

I've had a lot of people come

Speaker:

to me and say, well, how do

Speaker:

I price this sort of work?

Speaker:

And what does it really mean?

Speaker:

But in its simplest form, what you can

Speaker:

do is offer to write five or six quotes

Speaker:

about the product or the service, that

Speaker:

the brand can attribute to your name

Speaker:

when they're doing their PR activity and.

Speaker:

If possible, include

Speaker:

some high quality assets.

Speaker:

So when they send out their press

Speaker:

release, there's a bunch of assets

Speaker:

that the media can choose to use,

Speaker:

and they're using your name and

Speaker:

your persona for their PR activity.

Speaker:

Number 39.

Speaker:

If , you've got a podcast, you can

Speaker:

offer a podcast mid or enroll ad

Speaker:

so, you can record a snippet for

Speaker:

placement in your own podcast.

Speaker:

Or if you don't have your own

Speaker:

podcast, you might be able to still

Speaker:

record a snippet for the brand to

Speaker:

place in a third party podcast.

Speaker:

Number 40, you can offer to

Speaker:

extend the briefing calls or

Speaker:

briefing meetings for campaigns.

Speaker:

Now, if you are doing a slightly

Speaker:

larger campaign, it's likely

Speaker:

that the brand is going to wanna

Speaker:

have a briefing meeting with you.

Speaker:

It could be multiple

Speaker:

meetings, depending on.

Speaker:

The scope and the nature of the campaign.

Speaker:

If you've got a talent manager, they

Speaker:

might sit in on that meeting with you to

Speaker:

support and progress those conversations.

Speaker:

One way that you can.

Speaker:

Improve that relationship with the brand

Speaker:

is offered to extend, , the duration

Speaker:

of those, meetings or offer instead

Speaker:

of doing a phone call to just do a Zoom

Speaker:

or if they're local with you, go to

Speaker:

the team and meet the team so you can

Speaker:

explore, , ideas for the campaign and

Speaker:

you can really get a vibe on about what's

Speaker:

gonna make this brand collaboration work.

Speaker:

We use this frequently with some of our.

Speaker:

Larger scale campaigns to the extent

Speaker:

where we offer quarterly onsite meetings

Speaker:

with some of our clients where we

Speaker:

go in with the talent, we talk about

Speaker:

what's happening with the business

Speaker:

and the brand, what's coming up.

Speaker:

Then we riff on some ideas which

Speaker:

then translate into actionable

Speaker:

deliverables for the campaign duration.

Speaker:

We've got 10 upsells

Speaker:

left, 10 advanced upsells.

Speaker:

Now these are the ones that you

Speaker:

might think, whoa, this could

Speaker:

be a little bit outta my league.

Speaker:

But back yourself.

Speaker:

Have a think about how you can

Speaker:

position extra value to the

Speaker:

brand and put forward one sum.

Speaker:

Or all of these advanced

Speaker:

upsells as you work through

Speaker:

different campaign opportunities.

Speaker:

So number 41, brand ambassadorship.

Speaker:

add a section to your quote, your scope

Speaker:

of work that offers a longer term brand,

Speaker:

ambassadorship with extended deliverables

Speaker:

and really value-based pricing.

Speaker:

So instead of doing a few

Speaker:

deliverables here, say, look, why

Speaker:

don't we work together over three

Speaker:

months or six months or 12 months

Speaker:

on a brand ambassadorship, and I'm

Speaker:

gonna do all of this stuff to you.

Speaker:

You're gonna bundle up that pricing

Speaker:

and make it a really good offer, still

Speaker:

representing value for yourself and

Speaker:

the effort that you are putting in.

Speaker:

But you are going to extend the

Speaker:

deliverables and the relationship

Speaker:

with beautiful value based

Speaker:

pricing, that is gonna be difficult

Speaker:

for the brand to say no to.

Speaker:

Number 42 co-collaborators.

Speaker:

We've all got our moots, our mutuals.

Speaker:

Offer to bring in a co collaborator

Speaker:

to amplify and extend the reach

Speaker:

and engagement of the brand

Speaker:

campaign that you are working on.

Speaker:

Number 43, media Spokesperson.

Speaker:

Now this is an extension of that PR

Speaker:

activity we had in the intermediate

Speaker:

section, but media spokesperson, it

Speaker:

means that you can be available for live.

Speaker:

And or pre-recorded interviews.

Speaker:

So it might be a Juno picks up the

Speaker:

phone and says, Hey, you know, I

Speaker:

hear that you are using this product.

Speaker:

Tell us about your experience.

Speaker:

And you can confidently rattle off all

Speaker:

of the brand calls to actions, all the

Speaker:

important points and details you need to

Speaker:

know and deliver on that brand product.

Speaker:

Or it might be a TV interview

Speaker:

that's live or prerecorded.

Speaker:

So it's a higher level of

Speaker:

experience and commitment.

Speaker:

But it's a really great offering

Speaker:

because many influencers and

Speaker:

content creators are so incredibly

Speaker:

comfortable in front of the camera.

Speaker:

It's second nature, so it's

Speaker:

not confronting in any way.

Speaker:

In fact, many of you will

Speaker:

thrive as a media spokesperson.

Speaker:

So if that's your jam, go for it.

Speaker:

Number 44, offer to be a guest

Speaker:

speaker or panelist at a brand event.

Speaker:

Same deal, really again.

Speaker:

Many of you are confident when you've

Speaker:

got an audience in front of you.

Speaker:

So extend that into a new arena

Speaker:

and put your hand up to be a

Speaker:

panelist or a speaker at an event

Speaker:

that the brand might be hosting.

Speaker:

It could be something just at , a

Speaker:

local store, , they've got a new

Speaker:

store opening and you can go and say

Speaker:

fantastic things about the brand.

Speaker:

Or it might be something larger scale

Speaker:

where you're at a conference or an

Speaker:

event and you're up on a stage and.

Speaker:

Speaking as part of a panel.

Speaker:
