Are you speaking for free and wish you could get paid? Don't know how much to charge? Afraid you'll quote too high and lose the opportunity to speak? Or are you afraid you'll quote too low and cheat yourself out of a better fee? Do you know what terms to include in your letter of agreement? Most speakers, especially new ones, expect and ask for too little. This report answers frequently asked questions, and some you never considered. Written by an experienced professional speaker and speaker's agent.
The Story Behind the Report
"How much should I charge?" is a question I receive often from speakers and other independent professionals. I've since retired from negotiating for speakers -- often it took many hours and much energy on my part to negotiate fees and contract terms for speakers, only to have the speaker turn down the engagement, so I make this report available in its place.
