Of all the things that keep adults from achieving their goals with getting paid to speak, is fear. It holds them back. It might be the fear that they won't succeed, that others will laugh at them, that they won't be accepted or that they might fail. Many of us heard the message over and over, "You're not good enough," and many are allowing that endless tape to play over and over, especially when we feel that others didn't like what we had to offer.

I'm Bill Corbett, professional speaker, author and television program producer and host. After nearly 20 years of traveling nationally and internationally, delivering presentations, I sat down and wrote the Amazon bestseller, FROM THE SOAPBOX TO THE STAGE: HOW TO USE YOUR PASSION TO START A SPEAKING BUSINESS. And now you're listening to the GET PAID TO SPEAK PODCAST to help you use what you feel passionate about to inspire change in others. There are so many incredible things you can begin d...
Successful speakers that get invited back by the meeting planners make it a point to know their material before they utter their first word on the stage. You have no idea what may occur at the event that could affect your presentation. The client might reduce or extend your time in front of the audience or equipment malfunctions could occur. Knowing your material well will help you "roll with the punches" or react to whatever happens. In this episode you're going to learn from a great speak...
I'm the author of the book FROM THE SOAPBOX TO THE STAGE, an Amazon best-seller that reached the number 2 spot in it's category . One of the many techniques for getting hired to speak to groups is to get published. To get started on this, create an image of who your ideal audience members would be and then list the problems that they deal with on a regular basis. Then write 500-word artcles (essays) that feature solutions to these problems. Once you get the first few written, get them publish...
One of the best techniques for developing yourself and your skills is to surround yourself with great and encouraging people. Better yet, hang out with people who are already doing the kinds of things that you want to master. So that's exactly what I did as I was growing my own speaking business. And in the process I started a television show on public access television in which I interviewed top speakers who were already speaking for a living and were willing to share their secrets. In this...
I'm lucky enough to have a large circle of speaking partners who have allowed me to interview them for both television and radio. Some of these professionals I can actually call them a friend, to provide them with help if they need it, or to call on them when I'm the one in need. So in this episode, my friend Dan Blanchard stopped by and we pulled out the microphones to record a casual conversation about how we each began our journey to help others through professional speaking, and getting ...
This first episode was intended to set the stage. It gave me a chance to give you a little background on how I got started as a speaker, and tips that you might find useful. But it's just the beginning. It was an interview I did, just after my book first came out, and it was conducted by Susan Levin's SPEAKER SERVICES. The actual interview lasted almost an hour and you'll hear more segments of it over the next few episodes. If you're interested in reading or listening to my book, you'll find ...
