We had 65 people at Your Stage last Friday...we graduated to the big room! It's really taking off!
I learned some GREAT telemarketing tips yesterday at a CAPS meeting (Canadian Association of Professional Speakers)...I plan to use them this coming week as I start making the jump from public programs to corporate training.
I love the public programs, but it's just so hard to get enough people to do them that's it not always financially worth the effort.
I'm changing my thinking a little and I have learned that it's good to be philanthropic, but you also have to be practical. Give away what you can, but remember that your time is expensive, and you need to be paid what you're worth for what you do. If your current market isn't paying you what you're worth, find a new market.
Bob Proctor wrote a book called "It's Not About the Money", and I think he's right...business shouldn't be ABOUT the money, but the money has to be there or soon their aint no business!
Make money in your business...or you'll soon be out of business and no one will benefit from your talents...and THAT would be a shame!
