Simply the best, 2008-04-17
This may be the most important career building book you will ever read. I have read several books on this topic and no one delivers more information then the Walters do. The material is presented perfectly and is easy to understand. This book is a must for your speaking library.

A must if you want to get into the business, 2007-12-06
This book along with "Money Talks" should be on everybodys shelf if they want to get into the speaking business. There's a lot of practical advice for the "newbie" and usefull information.
Interestingly, it's slanted towards working with speaker agencies as the authors run one of the biggest agencies in the country. On the flip side, they advise not to submitt yourself to any agency until you're working a lot. Heed this advice!
Go get it!

 Out of date, 2007-09-09
This book should be updated or taken off the market. All examples are way out of date - from technology to marketing to today's audience. Very little value. Ironically the aurhors encourage you to keep current and they are over a decade behind. A fluff piece that promotes their speaker's bureau.

 Abundant Options to Profit at the Podium, 2007-04-02
Anyone who's ready to share their expertise on the plateform in small and large settings will find a wealth of resources in this book.
If you're just getting started, Speak and Grow Rich will overwhelm you with revenue opportunities. What I suggest, as a veteran speaker, is that you have pad and paper by your side to list the numerous products you can realistically create to start your speaking career and boost sales.
Every product mentioned in the book won't be beneficial for you, but the ones that link you with your audience will create untold revenue.
I found myself skimming some of the chapters, and that's only because I've been speaking for more than 10 years, so I know and practice much of what the authors suggest. However, I poured over the details in chapters 3 and 9.
The information on learning to craft contracts so that you make money from recordings and don't give away this intellectual property is priceless whether you're just starting or a long-time speaker. This tutorial was eloquently explained and not to be overlooked.
Speak and Grow Rich will help you to trade in your stage fright for bountiful checks you can bank on.
