I officially pitched to a list of 111 corporate contacts yesterday and will be pitching an additional 100 today, specifically to universities 👏🏽 whew thank God for reminders to keep growing 🥰

Thank you @Ashley Kirkwood for that 10k per speech video… I’m going to drop my biggest takeaways here and can you all comment which of these resonates most with you? 1) YOU HAVE EXPOSURE - People who say they want to book you for free to give you exposure could only find you because they were already EXPOSED TO YOU. 2) 30 DAY ROI - can you make back in 30 days what your fee would have been when you speak for free? 3) CHOOSE THIS DAY - Are you a hobby speaker or a professional speaker 4) WHO CALLED YOU? - did a person ask you to speak or was it GOD? 5) GROW UP! - To grow your business you must grow in character 6) LEAD RIGHT - You can’t lead people and please them too. 7) VOICE YOUR INVOICE - don’t keep sending invoices that disrespect your expenses and experiences. 8) STOP TAKING EVERY ENGAGEMENT - Space between bookings give you time to pitch to ideal clients. 9) SHOW ME - Specialized speakers demonstrate their expertise. 10) PERFORM - You are an edutainer so prep like one. These are my Top 10 takeaways… Like this post and then Choose one of the 10 and share how it resonates with you.

Hey, yall! I got a $25K contract for 1 month of consulting and delivery of a succession plan. I submitted a 3-tier proposal and they accepted the base offer with the option to increase to the higher option(s) later. Won't HE DO IT!!

I've been slacking since the NY event but this morning I took action and sent 11 or so pitches out to Podcasts and Associations.
