-
- Self-Improvement
This week I have best-selling author and coach Jane Atkinson on the podcast to reveal what it takes to succeed in the speaking industry. We discuss what she’s learned in her 30 years of representing celebrities, authors, and business experts and how she’s turned all that juicy knowledge into a coaching biz.
In this episode, you will hear:
Her three-step process for building a successful speaking business that her clients have used to generate over $1 million The importance of getting crystal clear on your message and what you’re selling Different strategies you can use to build momentum and land gigs when you’re just starting out How she created a business that transformed her life and aligned with her true purpose The strength in getting specific with the problem you’re helping to solve And why getting started as a speaker is as simple as taking the first step in the right direction Coaching Questions & Thoughts:
If you were to start speaking and teaching on a topic, what would it be?
Is there any way you can make that even more specific and geared towards a niche audience? What problem are you helping to solve?
If you were to map out your life 10, 15, and 20 years from now, what would it look like?
What’s the first step you could take to make that a reality?
