The Speaker’s Toolstack: How to Grow Your Speaking Business Online
A list of what you need to know about scaling your speaker business online
The speaking business is one of the most lucrative industries you can get into.
If you’re a professional speaker, you already know that.
But it’s also one of the most demanding.
Between travel, preparations, outreach, contracts, follow-ups, events, and managing your calendar… it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly playing catch-up.
That’s why it’s smart to diversify your income streams.
Now, when I say diversify your income streams, I don’t mean go invest in real estate, crypto, or even stocks.
No.
The first thing you need to do is diversify within your vertical.
Usually, a professional speaker has these essentials:
Their website (obviously).
Their keynote speeches & workshops.
A book (if they went the extra mile).
But that’s just the foundation.
Many professional speakers don’t have:
A lead-generating email list.
Digital products like courses, templates, or workbooks.
A high-converting funnel to sell those products while they sleep.
Affiliate partnerships & sponsorships that generate passive income.
An online membership community.
And much more…
These online products form the Speaker’s Online Toolstack.
Building it doesn’t just make you more money, it buys you time.
Time to focus on speaking, making an impact, and not worrying about the next gig.
In the upcoming days, I’ll be analyzing a few of these tools, and how successful speakers like Tony Robbins, Les Brown, and Bishop T.D. Jakes have incorporated them into their businesses.
