Without going into the strategies to build a speaking business for now, getting started is not hard at all. It’s a decision you make right now.

Take one small step to convince yourself that you are starting. Even if you just buy a domain name for your site or choose the topic you want to talk about.

Just do something–whatever you can. Do not be overwhelmed. It’s like any business. One foot in front of the other. Finally, keep reading this blog. There are a lot great tips to help you get started.

You have to focus your energy and thinking on being the expert on a specific topic. Then go wide in that topic.

Your communication style , conviction and personal story set you apart from many other speakers and it is always a learning experience hearing you speak. I have been dreaming of becoming a motivational speaker for quite a while now and I am willing to go the extra mile to make it a reality. Can you please provide me with information on how to get started.

Renee, I would truly appreciate your helpful guidance.

Thank you,

Natasha Barrett

Good point about the cafeteria menu – it truly is a recipe for disaster. Offering too many programs has a number of drawbacks but the biggest one I’ve found is the extra time you spend switching gears.

Thanks,

James
