Automated handling is crucial to building a professional speaking business. I currently use Go High Level because it has everything you might need and is continually being upgraded. Long ago and far away I had to kluge together up to 10 different pieces of software to do what one does now. I was one of the first subscribers when the guys at SpeakerFlow started their business. They get it and provide great advice. Before you select any software, talk to someone who has looked at them all. It could save you time, money and headaches.
Thank you to ALL the amazing speakers here within Inspiring Speakers that I have had a chance to engage with during 2025. You have inspired me. You have uplifted me. You have encouraged me. You have celebrated me. And you have challenged me at times, in the best way possible. I love you for it! Special thanks to @Drew Brania @David Corsini @Kevin Marius @Jerry Fletcher @Sandra Valks @Sandra Bothe @Angela Neufeld @Gopika Ashok M @Crystal Wright and so many others. You are needed. You are loved and I am grateful! Thank you! Sandi

@Sandi Boucher Sandi, When you get this old the parts start breaking down. Luckily my daughter couldn't reach me by phone and sent the sheriff to make a wellness visit. I'd been passed out on the floor for three days. Woke up intubated and tied to the hospital bed. They got my kidneys to start functioning again. Decided then to move to Washington DC so my daughter didn't have to get on an airplane to visit. Sort of starting over...again.😃
