So You Want to Be a Speaker

What Beginners Need to Know about the Business of Professional Speaking

I’m getting an increasing number of questions from folks who want to explore the world of professional speaking:
bulletHow long does it take to be successful?
bulletHow much is it going to cost?
bulletWhat tools do I need?
bulletWhat should I speak on?
bulletWhere do I start?
bulletWhat do I charge (and when should I speak for free)?
bulletWhere do I go for training?

Professional speaking not as glamorous as it looks and it isn’t all standing ovations and rock star treatment. It is one of the highest failure rate businesses. What you don’t know can cost you big money.

This session will answer those questions. It is for an aspiring speaker or author who needs to speak to audiences in order to sell their book. It’s designed to provide an overview of details that the aspiring professional speaker needs to know about the business to begin the journey.

Other important details:

The session will be recorded so it is crucial that you arrive early to eat.

bullet

We’ll have 60 minutes of information and then allow for 30 minutes of questions and answers at the end. Because the session will be recorded, we will probably have to hold additional questions to the end.

bullet

If you know the questions you’d like to ask ahead of time, make (provided they are within the scope of the program), e-mail those ahead.

ComTech, an IT solutions provider, has graciously sponsored the meal from World Garden. We’ll get to learn a more about their business as well.
