TICM 175 | The Secret Of Landing Speaking Gigs Is Easier Than You Think...
/
One of the questions I get asked ALL the time is "How did you actually BEGIN landing speaking engagements...especially since you started in your parent's living room, was in debt, and had no connections to the industry?"
It's a valid one.
And one that seems to elude a lot of creators and entrepreneurs that want to share their story, their message and ultimately their insights to a receptive audience.
I thought it would be only fitting that I share with you all a never released - private interview that I did with my "secret weapon" aka my speaking mentor; Jason Connell a while back for my paid clients.
The BEST part of Jason - He is a guy who is NOT famous, never written a book or sold a company for millions
But he is a guy that lands speaking engagements ranging from $10,000 to $20,000 USD per keynote.
