Answer is...
1 So that's why I'm here today to answer the question. Does it cost you anything to do our TEDx talk? No. As a matter of fact, in the rules and regs of TEDx talks, it says the speakers can not be charged to do a TEDx Talk.

Answer is:
1 Well, not in dollars in the sense you get it in a visibility, credibility, and marketability, that demo, that demo video. If you're a speaker author, you have a particular, a favorite charity or cause a Toastmaster.
Yeah, your pay is having this big red letters behind you and when you send that video demo out and the client or potential client sees that. It's going to help you get the gig. It may not get you the gig, but it can help. And it certainly couldn't hurt. So Nope. Nobody gets paid to do a TEDx talk.

Do You Have To Be A Professional Speaker To Do A TEDx Talk?
I am Frank King and I'm your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com. I'm here today to answer the question, do you have to be a professional speaker to do a TEDx talk?
Answer is:
1 No. No, you don't have to be a professional speaker to do a TEDx talk. All you need. Is an idea worth spreading. That's what TEDx talks are all about.
And you know, I would guess, the majority of people who do TEDx talks are not professional speakers. Some have never spoken on any stage anywhere before, and they assign you a volunteer coach to make sure your TEDx Talk comes out as good as possible. So you don't have to be a professional speaker and some TEDx committees don't want professional speakers.
Yup. They just want humans, average human beings. I am Frank King. Your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com .

Do You Have To Go To The City Where The TEDx Event Is Taking Place To Audition?
Hi, I'm Frank King. Your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com. I'm here today to answer the question, Do you have to go physically to the city where the TEDx event is taking place to audition?
Answer is:
1 No, not even when we're not having a pandemic. Generally you fill out an application, you find the link to the application online, fill out the application.
If they like your idea and be creative on the application because they get a lot of them. If they liked the idea, they will arrange a zoom or Skype audition. Or they'll just have you send in a two to three minute video overview of your idea and yeah. So you don't have to go to the city where it takes place to, you know, cause I've never done a TEDx talk anywhere near where I live.
I'm always flown to them to do the actual TEDx talk. So no, you don't have to go to the audition physically. You can do it over zoom or Skype or the five even done them over the phone. I'm Frank King your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com. .

How long is a TEDx Talk?
Hi, I'm Frank King, your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com. I'm here today to answer the question, how long is a TEDx talk?
Answer is:
1 Well, that depends on a number of factors. It can be no longer than 18 minutes. However, it can be as short as a minute. I would say the average is probably 15, but it's up to the curation team.
Those are the volunteers who run the TEDx events. I've done a 12 minute TEDx. I've done a 15 minute, 12 X, done a 15 minute TEDx, and I've done it 18 minute TEDx. So again, two factors, one, uh, what the curation team wants in the way of a talk, how many minutes and, and two how long your talk is. But yeah, 18 maximum 15 average as short as one minute, I'm Frank King your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com.

Answer is:
1 Well, there are a number of ways, but the linchpin is you have to find the application link. The link to an application for that particular TEDx Talk and there are a number of ways to find those, but let me give you the easiest, go to your Google machine type TEDx applications.
And then a year, I would say at this point 2021 and then a month, and I would pick a month about four or five months hints because there's about a four or five month runway to a TEDx talk.

Do you have to live in the town where the TEDx is taken place to be apart of that TEDx?
Hi, I'm Frank King. I'm here today. I am your TEDx coach at yourtedxcoach.com. Almost forgot that. I'm here today to answer the question. Do you have to live in the town where the TEDx is taking place to be a part of that TEDx?
Answer is:
1 No. You do not. As a matter of fact, I have never done. I've been selected seven times for a TEDx talk. I've been able to perform five. I had conflicts on the other two, you know, calendar conflicts, but I've never done one in my hometown and I've never done one where I could drive to the event. I had to fly it all up.
So, no, I would suggest you apply as many places as possible all over the United States as possible.
So, yeah, you don't have to live in the town where a TEDx event, takes place. I'm Frank King. Your TEDx Coach at yourtedxcoach.com.

What is the difference between a TED Talk and a TEDx Talk?
Hi, I'm Frank King, your TEDx Coach at yourtedxcoach.com. I'm here today to answer the question and I get this a lot. What is the difference between a Ted talk and a Ted X talk.
Answer is:
1 Ted talk, it's a four day international speaking event and big time speakers for the most part. I mean, they do have some small times speakers with a great idea, but you know, Bill Gates, Steve jobs, Al Gore. Ted X, the X indicates local and pretty much every city of any size, medium or large has one, sometimes two or three TEDx talks per year. That's a great thing about TEDx talks. If you don't get it this year, you apply the next.
So that's it. Ted's the big international event four days and big times speakers. TEDx, X means local. I'm frank king your TEDx talk.
