Getting a TEDx slot requires relentless follow-up. Submit to many organizers and contact them across email, LinkedIn, the TED site, and Instagram. The rule: it takes seven rejections before you get a yes, so track where each organizer is most active and time your outreach to their recent posts.

All right, so you wanna know how to give a TED Talk, correct? One thing I want you to understand is the fortune is in the follow-up. I'm gonna say that again so that you guys can pick up. The fortune is in the follow-up. They say in sales that it takes 7 nos to get to a yes. 7. So you wanna submit to as many people as you can and then make sure you have a system to follow up, right? Now, I teach you all of that All those strategies in the program, but I'm gonna give you a sequence right now. It's a super easy sequence. Email, LinkedIn, the actual TED site, Instagram if they're on Instagram. You wanna hit 'em up on all things, but figure out where are they posting the most, right? Wherever they're posting the most is where you need to be. If somebody makes a comment or a post or something that I can engage on, and I know that it was recent and real time, I'm going to do my best to time it to where I can respond 'cause I know they just posted. Does that make sense? Yeah.
