Book excerpt: Within the pages of this book, you'll find the combined wisdom of over 600 years (more or less) of meeting planning expertise, all aimed at helping you book more business as a speaker. The four of us sat down and had a very candid conversation on fifteen different official topics (and many unofficial ones...) to help speakers of all experience levels navigate their prospecting and relationship-building with planners. Our goal is to give a rare peek inside the planner's brain (it can get scary in there, but we've got your back!). We want you to be more findable, likeable, memorable, and bookable! What speakers are saying: "WOW! OMG! This is the most powerful, realistic book I've ever read (and I've read hundreds!) that is laser-targeted to those of us in professional speaking. These four wonderful ladies are coming from the real world, nitty-gritty reality of what works and what doesn't. They make it clear what is NOT working and what IS in today's meetings industry. If you're thinking of or are already practicing professional speaking, get updated as to what works now, get the money-losing habits out of your system, and find out what is needed in today's white-hot competitive speaking world. Get this book. Learn from it. Profit from it!" - Terry Brock, MBA, CSP, CPAE, Cavett Award Winner "Frankly Speaking is like stealing the playbook on getting booked.
