Show Notes
In today's episode, I share an interview I did with Grant Baldwin from TheSpeakerLab.com.
Grant is someone that knows the speaking game inside and out. He has been a professional speaker for years and now teachers others how to book their own speaking gigs.
So, during the interview we discuss these 2 aspects of his business: how to actually get booked as a speaker (and get paid for it) and second, how he has build the training side of his business and how that is going.
As a quick summary, Grant Baldwin shares that he makes over six figures speaking at events. However, his business as a whole will be close to crossing the seven figure mark when you add in his training courses.
I was fascinated with how Grant has building the training side of his business through Facebook ads and webinars. So, if you have a training product (or are thinking about creating one), there is a great discussion about how you can grow that part of your business.
During the course of the episode, Grant shares a few resources:
- TheSpeakerLab.com - where you can learn more about Grant or join his training programs.
- MySpeakerFee.com - A speaker fee calculator that can show you how much you should expect to make when speaking.
- FreeSpeakerWorkshop.com - Grant's free webinar training that teaches you "How To Start Booking (And Getting Paid For) Speaking Engagements Without Having An Existing Platform Or Being Sales-y"
