🎤 Get paid for public speaking

Hiya! I’m Lucy from Hype Yourself. I’m rebuilding my archive after this happened. Join to receive a weekly email to help you Get Seen & Get Paid.

Hiya hypers,

As part of rebuilding the archive, I invited back to talk about public speaking.

You might already know Alex for dropping viral LinkedIn gems from his public speaking pricing report to hot takes on great talks.

Getting paid as a public speaker is nuanced. Like most ways to hype yourself, there is no one-size-fits-all.

But if you are interested in:

  1. Ways to get started being paid
  2. How to wrestle with your head or heart over a speaking gig
  3. When to speak for free

Then there will be some nuggets for you in this class.

My speaking career ranges anywhere from three to four figures. I tend to get invitations.

With my current home set-up, it hasn't been a priority. But the biggest thing I’ve gained from speaking is unlocking other doors to other alternative income streams.

This talk got my cogs turning on where I can go next with my public speaking.

🎥 Watch the replay below to find out:

  • The four biggest levers for setting your speaking fee
  • How to balance a “message for money” with a “message for meaning”
  • Why reputation and visibility can get you booked without a speaker page (and what to put on LinkedIn instead)
  • How to avoid the one sentence that kills your leverage in fee negotiations
  • Smart strategies for free talks (when to say yes, when to say no, and how to make them pay later)
