Invited to do speaking engagement

April 25th, 2008 at 06:41 am

A few months ago, I went throught the speaker-training program for one of the pharmaceutical companies and did do one speaking program for them. I was hoping it would become a regular thing, but so far it hadn't.

But today, the rep from that company was in and said she'd like to have me do a program sometime in June. That would be great. I told her I was wondering what had happened as I'd like to do them more regularly, maybe every couple of months if possible.

I enjoy doing it and the money always comes in handy. I think the current rate for speakers is $625 per program. So at least I know I've got one coming up.

WOW! What a rate! It must be comparable to teaching a one-day class? Congrats, very satisfying to be sure!

mom-from-missouri: Hadn't even thought of that but you're right. That will cover the 2 suits I bought yesterday. I'll just have to make sure not to spill anything on my pants.

That is awesome! Wish I was smart like that.

The best part is that the rep suggested having the program at the chef's table at a great Italian restaurant nearby. The restaurant is excellent but the chef's table is a truly incredible experience. I've only had the opportunity to dine there once, but it was probably one of the finest meals of my life.
