How do you connect the expertise you offer to asking for money as a speaker? What are the three things speakers should be thinking about if they want to make money and get paid to speak in 2022? These are the questions I ask today’s guest, Danielle Hayden.
Danielle is a reformed corporate CFO and co-owner of Kickstart Accounting, Inc. She is on a mission to help speakers understand their numbers so they can increase their profitability and take home pay. Danielle shares her three best tips for speakers when it comes to making money and your money story.
We discuss:
-
the importance of knowing how much money you need to make in order to set your rates
-
knowing what your money mindset is
-
the importance of getting comfortable with discomfort
Here are the podcasts and books she mentions:
