So you want to start public speaking, huh? Well, it all starts with setting up your speaker page for success.
In today’s episode we are talking about setting up a speaker page. This is for all you writers who want to add speaking to your creative career resume. Speaking is a great opportunity to increase revenue and expand your influence and audience. Whether you are speaking at a paid opportunity or a free one, it is a way to grow your social media presence. With the pandemic, many speaking opportunities have become virtual opportunities. It is wonderful because, even though there aren’t as many opportunities, it has made speaking a little more simple.
