Myth: The only way that speakers get paid is by getting paid to speak
Truth: Speakers have multiple ways to get paid if they know how to create products and services

Myth: It's hard to create a product or service for in the speaker industry
Truth: The hardest part of creating a product or service as a speaker is time management to get it done.

Myth: The only type of product a speaker can create is a book
Truth: Even if that were true, the book that a speaker creates can be repurposed in multiple ways

In this special episode of the #SpeakEasy Podcast, my team and I debunk several myths that we have heard from those in the speaking industry about creating products and services. Those who are just coming into the speaking industry often believe that the on;y way that speakers are paid is by an event host. They end up disappointed when someone tells them that they have to pay for a speaking spot or become offended when someone asks them to speak for free.

There are many ways to get paid but you will have to determine which way will work best for you. Don't forget that you have to factor in things like time, energy, travel and a few other expenses when thinking of the price you will charge. It is a process but one that will benefit you in the long run.

I promise you, these ladies hold nothing back when it came to the myths and truths of creating products and services.
