Tips for Submitting a Proposal
We are often asked what makes a good speaking proposal. Here are some things we’ve learned over the years from reviewing them through the years.
First, decide which conference your presentation would be best suited to. Think about your audience. Write proposals that resonate with the delegates who will be attending the event. Don’t submit the same proposals to multiple conferences; remember the audiences are different.
- Focus on topics you are knowledgeable and passionate about. Those characteristics will make your proposal stand out.
- Good presentation titles are short, to the point, and say what the presentation is about. Don’t hide the topic. Be bold.
- For the main message, write one sentence describing the focus of your presentation. If you can’t condense it, you may have multiple but independent good ideas. Aim to isolate the most important one.
- From the reviewer’s standpoint, the presentation description is the most important section. The best descriptions typically are split into two parts. In the first part, concisely identify a challenge, problem, or situation you want to present. In the second, describe your approach to address the challenge or solve the problem, including what the delegates will learn and take away from your presentation.
- Avoid “IOU descriptions,” e.g., “In my presentation I’ll talk about cool stuff.” Give the reviewer details about what that “cool stuff” will be, so that he or she can make an informed decision.
- Avoid product sales pitches (either disguised or blatant). It is certainly acceptable to illustrate your solution with a tool, but the solution itself should be the focus of the presentation.
- Take some time to craft a good description. It’s easy to detect the ones that have been slapped together on the way to something else.
