A question I get asked a lot is: How can I get paid to speak?

One of the best ways is to speak and present for free.

(This goes for both in-person and online presentations and trainings.)

Why speak for free?

You build relationships with event organizers who can then recommend you or pay you to speak at future events.
You get to know other speakers who recommend you for paid events.
You can get video clips of you speaking to showcase your ability to deliver.
You become more comfortable and confident with your material and delivery which results in you feeling more confident asking to be paid.

My guest today is Angela Hosking, who is a dynamic speaker and founder of Her One Tribe.

Angela was in our Monetize Your Speaking program last year and is currently in our mastermind.

In this episode, Angela and I talk about:

Strategies she used to get her first free speaking engagements (that you can use too)
The mindset shift Angela made
How she used online summits and webinars to build her email list
The opportunities that have come from the speaking she’s done, including ones she hadn’t anticipated
What you can negotiate for when speaking
Angela’s philosophy of taking small brave steps every day
