How do you become a professional speaker? Don’t believe everything you read or watch about this online. There’s a lot of money in selling people how to get rich quick in professional speaking. From ‘just tell your story’ to ‘just get on as many stages as possible’ to ‘get discovered as the next big motivational speaker’. If you’ve bought into any of these lies, you’ve been had, and I’m sorry about that. First of all, you must understand that speaking is one of the highest paid professions in the world, and that means you’re competing with a lot of very smart people. To have a legitimate shot of making it, you need to be savvy and strategic. Stop listening to charaltans who promise the moon and take your money.
