This book and the teleseminar includes excerpts from the research and interviews I have done over the years with such fantastic and successful speakers as: Norman Vincent Peale, Dr. Ken Blanchard, Lou Holtz, Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Elizabeth Dole, Les Brown, Vince Lombardi, Earl Nightengale, Brian Tracy, Art Linkletter, and many, many others.
Their ideas, and mine, with step -by-step strategies to get you through those first two years. What you need to do to make it in the speaking industry, how to keep from giving up, and what they would have differently if they had it to do over.
