Vinh Giang is an international speaker and magician who is known for his ability to educate, entertain and enlighten his audiences. He joins me on this episode of The Speaker Lab to talk about the tireless dedication and work ethic needed to catapult him to such a high level of success. He also explains how his TEDx talk changed the trajectory of his career and how he leveraged it to grow and expand his business. We wrap up with how he uses magic in his presentations without being labeled as a magician and discuss why his demo video is so critical to his success. You'll hear all of that and more when you join us on episode 164 of The Speaker Lab with Vinh Giang. THE FINER DETAILS OF THIS SHOW:    What is his greatest competitive advantage?
