Today, The Wealthy Speaker Podcast is being brought to you by the Inner Circle Mastermind. Tired of hustling for low-paying speaking gigs that don’t really light your fire? Let me share some of what I learned after 12 years as a booking agent, 6 under the roof of a speakers bureau and recently, 12 years coaching my clients to become some of the most highly-paid and sought-after speakers in the industry. If you’re willing to hustle to do the work, to really show up for your mission and message every single day, I’ll show you how to score the business.
On this episode of The Wealthy Speaker Podcast we are talking about how to book repeat business. Sarah McVanel is with us to share some of the strategies she uses to ensure repeat business from current or even perspective clients.

Repeat business is the easiest way to keep your business moving forward. Don’t be reluctant to ask a client for more work than they have asked to book you for. If you’re not planting the seeds for extra programs or returning for follow up, you are missing a great opportunity to fill your calendar.
