Becoming a well-paid public speaker isn't as tough as most people think. And I'm about to blow your mind with how easy it is to get up and running in the next 7 days.
First, you have to forget everything you've heard about making money as a speaker. 50% of it is probably wrong - or at least outdated. So, here are 7 quick hitters to help you hit the ground running as a paid public speaker.
Tip #1: You don't need to be a celebrity to be a highly paid public speaker.
In fact, I bet you've never heard about me and my speaking career has brought me millions. So, that's good news for you, right? Forget all those folks who tell you that you have to be famous to get paid a lot of money speaking -- ya don't.
Tip #2: You don't need to be a great orator or public speaker.
Sounds strange, doesn't it? But it's true, you don't have to be able to move millions of people to action to start making money in this game. What you DO need is a message that people want to hear.
Tip #3: You don't need a lot of money to make a lot of money speaking.
Start-up expenses for speakers is less than $20 and here's why. I recommend that you get a $10 domain name (yourname.com) and set up a free blog (like this one) and you're ready to go.
The final 4 tips are your "fast start" to dos.
Tip #4: Have a nice slice of P.I.E.
I take my clients through an exercise where they write down their Passion, Interests & Expertise. From that list, they should have at least 3 topics they can speak and make money from.
Tip #5: Start Speaking
If you've got a topic you're passionate about, turn on your webcam and record a 5-minute speech.
Tip #6: Set up and post on your YouTube page.
YouTube is the world's largest online television network. You're bound to have some viewers.
Tip #7: Be sure there's a link from your YouTube page to your website (from tip #3), where people can go and buy your products and services -- or book you to speak!
Guess what, you're a speaker! Congratulations!
