Why Prospecting?
Here's the thing about prospecting: it's the key to building a thriving speaking business.
It demands a methodical, consistent approach - with no shortcuts (sorry!)
The problem? Most speakers lack the time and energy. It's a grind - we get it.
That's where SpeakUp Assistants come in.
