In this episode, we're gonna discuss why finding speaking opportunities is easy when you speak for free or low fee.
One of the biggest things that I hear from speakers when they're talking about opportunities that they've missed is that they didn't have the budget for me, or they offered $1,500 and we just couldn't make it work, et cetera.
Now, most professional speakers have rates that they charge, and in the market I'm in, there's just not as many opportunities to get those rates, especially after Covid. It limits your opportunities and only certain audiences can afford to see you. And from my perspective, that's not what I want.
When you speak for a low fee or for free, it opens a floodgate of opportunities for you to get on stage.

In this episode, we're going to look at before, during and after you speak and how everything you do affects the growth of your income.
If you've ever been to any courses about speaking, you'll already know about all the processes regarding what you need to do to work with a speaker booker, the chats you'll need to have to learn about your audience and ways that you can make their life easier.
This episode is NOT about that! This is the stuff on top of that that you need to do to make money.

In this episode, we're going to look at "Where's the money if you speak for free or low fee?' In speaking, the key thing is to think about is where the money is. When I speak in a room like that, I see those as future potential clients or connections to future potential clients, or alternatively I can sell my services or products to the audience. It all depends on the room.

Why speak for free or low fee? I love Zig Ziglar and Zig said, "You can have everything in this life you want. If you're just help another enough other people get what they want."
Speaking for free allows us to actually help a lot more people than if we speak and we're get paid top dollar. In this episode, we're going to cover a few reasons for that and why it is extremely profitable to not charge or speak for a low fee.
