“The goal is to become reassuringly expensive to some extent because what you're able to charge as a speaker is directly correlated to the insurance policy that you can provide for that event.”One of the best parts about being a speaker is that you get to decide what your speaking career looks like. Your story is unique—and only you can deliver the kind of value your audience needs. This week, Clint Pulver joins the show to remind us that success on stage is about more than a great keynote. Clint's become an in-demand speaker by leaning into what makes him truly different—combining research, storytelling, and full-on showmanship to create real experiences for his audiences.From hauling drum kits in a rental car as a young speaker to now orchestrating jaw-dropping interactive moments, Clint proves that your wild ideas are often your most valuable assets. He encourages speakers to go beyond the standard and design memorable experiences—think Broadway-level performance, not just another lecture. The big lesson? Embrace everything that makes you, you.Whether it's drumming, magic, humor, or a signature story, don't be afraid to bring it to the stage. There's no single path to a successful speaking career, so create one that fits your strengths and passions. Ready to take the next step?

I saw Lee Warren speak at the Professional Speaking Association summit and he was one of the star turns of the event. The theme was standing out, and his talk was aimed at helping speakers to do exactly that, for the right reasons.  Lee was a magician by night and a sales director by day before he fell into professional speaking. That was 15 years ago and he has been speaking consistently since then using his background in sales, performance, and psychology to help audiences at global brands to become more compelling, confident and connected.  He is also the author of the award-winning book 'The Busy Person's Guide To Great Presenting', and is visiting faculty at The University of Oxford. If that wasn't enough he is also a Fellow of the Professional Speaking Association, and a recipient of the UK's highest award for Professional Public Speaking - The Hall of Fame Professional Speaking Award of Excellence. In this show I wanted Lee to share the inside track on what it takes to get going, to stand out and stay at the top of your game as a professional speaker. He didn't disappoint. The tips and advice you get from Lee in this show are worth their weight in gold and I know that your speaking will level up if you put them into action.   What you'll discover: How Lee got into magic and how it's influenced his approach to speaking. How he got his first paid speaking gig.  The big lesson from magic that separates the great speakers from the amateurs. How his content and delivery have evolved over his speaking career and why. The distinction between different types of speakers, trainers and workshop facilitators How Lee tailors his keynotes for different audiences across different industries without reinventing the wheel every time. Some of the mistakes that people make when transitioning from free to paid gigs and how to avoid them.  Lee's tips for building a strong paid speaking pipeline. How the landscape of paid public speaking changed since Lee started in the industry and how speakers can make sure they stay relevant going forward. Why reading some of the great works of fiction can level up your speaking.
