S02 E09 | Get paid to speak

How can you get paid to speak—and what are the most effective ways to turn speaking opportunities into a profitable business? The 3 Main Ways to Get Paid to Speak 1. Build Fame and Authority The highest-paid speakers are often recognized experts, bestselling authors, celebrities, industry leaders, or influential thought leaders. Event organizers pay premium fees because these speakers attract audiences and increase ticket sales. 2. Build a Large Email List Event hosts want speakers who can help fill seats and attract attendees. A strong email list increases your value because you can promote events directly to an engaged audience. Benefits include: More speaking opportunities Greater credibility Increased book, course, and program sales Long-term business growth 3. Own the Stage One of the most powerful ways to get paid is to become the event host yourself. Examples: Festivals Summits Podcasts Virtual shows Conferences Owning the stage allows you to build authority, grow your audience, and generate revenue through sponsorships and speaker participation. Bonus Strategy: Speak for Free and Get Paid on the Back End Sometimes the most profitable speaking engagements are unpaid. By speaking for free and offering coaching, courses, retreats, books, memberships, or consulting services, you can generate significantly more revenue than a one-time speaking fee. Key Takeaways Speaking fees are only one source of income. Building authority, growing an email list, and owning a stage create long-term opportunities. Event hosts value speakers who can attract audiences. Hosting your own events can be more profitable than waiting for invitations. Speaking for free can be highly profitable when paired with paid offers. Action Steps Grow your email list. Seek consistent speaking opportunities. Consider hosting your own event or show. Develop offers that monetize your speaking engagements. Focus on building long-term business assets, not just speaking fees. The most successful speakers use speaking as a tool to build authority, grow their audience, and create multiple streams of revenue. Loved this episode?

S02 E08 | The 7 Online Speaker Essentials

What separates speakers who get invited back from those who are quickly forgotten? Professional speakers need more than a great presentation. Having the right systems in place helps speakers maximize opportunities, look professional to event hosts, attract clients, and generate long-term business growth. Why These Essentials Matter Help speakers show up prepared and professional. Make life easier for event hosts, increasing chances of repeat invitations. Create systems that continue working while you develop your speaking career. Build a sustainable business beyond individual speaking engagements. The 7 Online Speaker Essentials 1. Email List Your email list is your most important business asset. It allows you to stay connected with your audience, generate clients, and maintain control over your communication regardless of social media changes. Many event organizers also consider email list size when selecting speakers. 2. Opt-In Page An opt-in page (also called a landing page, funnel, or squeeze page) is where people can subscribe to your email list. Its purpose is to convert visitors into subscribers. 3. Free Gift (Lead Magnet) A free gift is offered in exchange for someone's email address. The best lead magnets solve a specific problem quickly and are easy to consume, such as a checklist, PDF, guide, or worksheet. These first three essentials work together: Email List Opt-In Page Free Gift Together, they create a system for growing your audience and generating future opportunities. 4. VIP Bonus A VIP bonus is a higher-value resource offered through certain events. Unlike a simple lead magnet, it typically includes a course, workshop recordings, challenge, or other premium content valued at $300–$1,000 or more. 5. Online Booking Calendar An online booking calendar makes it easy for potential clients to schedule sessions with you. Tools such as HighLevel, Calendly, or Acuity help automate this process and create a smoother client experience. 6. Business System Speaking becomes profitable when supported by a clear business system. This includes your offers, programs, sales process, and client journey. The goal is not simply to speak on stages but to convert speaking opportunities into paying clients and revenue. 7. Social Media Presence Social media supports your business but should not be the foundation of it. While event hosts may review your online presence, social media is best viewed as a marketing tool rather than your primary source of business growth. Loved this episode?

S02 E07 | Why Your Email List Matters: The 4 Ways to Grow Your List

Your email list is one of the most valuable assets in your business. A strong list can: Open doors to speaking opportunities Increase your chances of landing publishing deals Create a direct connection with your audience Generate long-term, sustainable income Build a pool of future clients and customers The bigger your list, the more opportunities become available. The 4 Ways to Grow Your List 1. Organic Growth (You Do the Work) Organic growth happens through your own efforts and relationships. Examples: Social media content Facebook groups Networking (online and in person) YouTube videos and shorts Speaking engagements Hosting masterclasses Running challenges or training events Sharing your free gift through your Linktree and profiles Key takeaway: Consistency creates growth. 2. Paid Speaking Opportunities Paid speaking opportunities can accelerate list growth because event hosts have already gathered an audience for you. Benefits: Access to warm audiences Increased visibility Faster list growth Credibility-building opportunities Important: Always vet speaking opportunities to ensure they are legitimate and aligned with your goals. 3. Paid Advertising Running ads through platforms like: Facebook (Meta) Google YouTube Advantages: Scalable growth Predictable lead generation Challenges: Requires budget Takes time to optimize Results are not always immediate A common recommendation is to promote a free gift rather than an event, allowing ads to work continuously over time. 4. Collaborative Marketing (Most Powerful) Collaborative marketing combines audiences and resources. Examples: Affiliate partnerships Promo buddy exchanges Strategic alliances Joint events Summits and festivals Giveaways Collaborative speaking opportunities Benefits: Faster audience growth Shared visibility Lower marketing costs Access to new communities The power comes from growing together rather than alone.

S02 E06 | GET BOOKED TO SPEAK

What shifts can help you become a sought-after speaker who attracts speaking opportunities, clients, and income without chasing or forcing? This training focused on three powerful shifts that move you from waiting for opportunities to creating them. Success as a speaker isn't just about tactics—it's about how you position yourself, your message, and your business. What's Not Working Many speakers struggle because they: Wait until they're "ready" Overgive and undercharge Lack clarity in their message Have no audience or list-building strategy Wait for someone else to choose them Your message is needed now. The key is stepping into leadership instead of waiting for permission. Shift #1: From Stories to Frameworks Stories create connection, but frameworks create authority. A framework is your unique process, system, or methodology. Examples include: Three Pillars of Thriving Post-Menopause Four-Step Grief Healing System Five Phases of Becoming a Wise Woman People may relate to your story, but they invest in the process that helps them achieve results. Key Takeaway: Own and teach a framework that is uniquely yours. Shift #2: From Hoping to Get Picked to Owning the Stage Rather than waiting for invitations, create your own opportunities. Examples: Host a festival Launch a summit Start a podcast Run your own show or event Owning a stage positions you as a leader, increases visibility, and attracts collaborations and speaking opportunities. Key Takeaway: Leaders create stages instead of waiting to be invited onto one. Shift #3: From Speaking Free to Give Value to Speaking Free to Invite Speaking for free can be incredibly valuable when done with intention. The goal is to: Grow your email list Build relationships Nurture trust Gain clients over time Instead of speaking only to educate, speak to invite people into your world through: Free gifts Email lists Workshops Coaching programs Courses and offers Key Takeaway: Speaking is often a relationship-building strategy before it becomes a sales strategy. The Importance of Patience Building a speaking business takes time. Success comes from consistently building: Credibility Authority Audience Systems Confidence Some people become clients quickly, while others may follow your work for years before saying yes.

S02 E05 | The Path From Speaking to Paying Clients

What does your speaking lead to? Speaking creates impact, visibility, and connection—but if you're building a business, it should also create opportunities for people to work with you. One of the biggest mindset shifts I teach is this: Speaking is marketing. Whether you're speaking on a podcast, summit, community stage, workshop, or interview, you're building trust, sharing your expertise, and creating a pathway for people to continue the journey with you. The Path From Speaking to Clients Many entrepreneurs focus on getting speaking opportunities but don't have a system that guides people toward becoming clients. Here's the framework I teach: Speak – podcasts, events, workshops, interviews, and community talks. Offer a Free Gift – give people a valuable next step. Build Your Email List – collect contacts so you can continue the conversation. Nurture the Relationship – send regular emails and stay connected. Host Your Own Events – workshops, masterclasses, webinars, challenges, or series. Offer a Short Program – typically 30 to 90 days. Invite People Into Long-Term Programs – creating deeper transformation and consistent income. Why Your Email List Matters If you're writing a book, creating a course, launching a podcast, or building a new offer, don't wait until it's finished to build an audience. Build your email list now. When your offer is ready, you'll already have people who know, like, and trust you. A common mistake is collecting email addresses but never following up. Consistent emails help build relationships and keep you top of mind. Why Short Programs Work I've noticed a shift in how people buy coaching and online programs. People want: Connection Trust Relationship A chance to experience your work A short program can be a wonderful bridge between a free offer and a long-term coaching or mentorship program. Key Takeaway Speaking alone doesn't create clients. The real magic happens when you create a clear pathway from speaking, to relationship-building, to offers, and ultimately to long-term client relationships. Ask yourself: Which step in this process am I missing, and what is one action I can take this week to strengthen it? Loved this episode?
