How to become a paid speaker

In this episode Judith Germain speaks to Grant Baldwin about getting paid to speak. He shares his SPEAK Framework™ and his thoughts on whether you should have a set talk or one that is highly customised.

Grant explains that speakers want to be the steakhouse and not the buffer and the need for your own 'movie trailer'. In this conversation they discuss whether there is a need to hire a speaker agent or register on a bureau. Grant shares how you are the solution to a problem the buyer already has.

This conversation was originally recorded in June 22.

Grant Baldwin is the CEO and Founder of The Speaker Lab. They help aspiring speakers get consistently booked and paid to speak through their SPEAK Framework™, or the “business” side of speaking."
