Running Your Own Successful Speaking & Training Events

In today's episode, we're going to dive into a topic that I know many of you have been eagerly waiting for: 'Running Your Own Successful Speaking and Training Events.' We'll explore everything from the initial planning stages to the vital post-event follow-up, and I'll share some of the lessons I've learned from my own experiences along the way.

Running your own speaking and training events is a bit like throwing a party where you're the DJ - you're in charge of the vibe, the guest list, and best of all, you're the one who can make it a profitable gig. You get to decide the ticket prices, how much you want to spend on the event, and even how big or small you want the whole thing to be. This means you've got a lot of room to work out how to make the most money, whether that's from ticket sales, getting some sponsors on board, or even selling some cool merchandise. Plus, you get to call the shots on what the event is all about. You can choose topics you're really into, craft the content to play to your strengths, and shape the whole experience to reflect your own style. It's a pretty awesome way to stand out from the crowd in the speaking world and deliver an event that's not just enjoyable for your audience, but also puts some extra cash in your pocket.
