Here's how you can determine the pricing for your services as a beginner in motivational speaking.

Beginner speaker, booking gigs! Here's my pricing playbook: Market research: Scope out what other new speakers are charging. Don't undersell myself, but be realistic. Value proposition: Highlight what makes me unique. Energy, specific niche, audience engagement? Offer packages: Consider tiered pricing with different talk lengths or bonus materials. Start small, scale up: Offer competitive rates to build a portfolio, then gradually increase prices as I gain experience and testimonials. By researching the market, emphasizing my value, offering options, and starting strategically, I'll land gigs that pay me fairly and build a foundation for future growth in motivational speaking fees.

??I Concur With This Let me Explain you in simple ways & Based on My own experience ??Imagine you're selling inspiration and motivation. To set your price, think about how much your talk helps people: ??What's your special sauce? Are you sharing unique life experiences, expert knowledge, or a cool perspective? What kind of change do you want to inspire? ??Are you giving practical tips, deep wisdom, or just a powerful story? Basically, your price should reflect how valuable your talk is. So figure out what makes your speech special and price it accordingly.

You know you bring value when what you do: - is unique - can help people - cannot be easily Googled. Don't focus on facts, figures and skills. Those things are all over the Internet. So there's no value in that. But when you've found a unique way to achieve a goal. Or you focus on your own experiences and show how you overcame a situation, you're in a unique position to help someone do the same in a way they never heard before. And that's valuable.

Don't overcharge because you want money. You'll turn off organisers. Don't undercharge to get a gig. You'll undervalue your own worth in other people's eyes. Different industries have different speaker ranges. Knowing the rates for yours will give you an idea about your fees. Make sure you propose a suitable rate within the range. Even if negotiations must take place, give yourself a suitable starting point.

??I Read A book Rich Dad And poor Dad !! According to That Book ! Here's the cost analysis part in simpler terms ??Count all your expenses: Think of everything you spend on being a speaker - travel, hotel, flyers, handouts, etc. ??Don't work for free! Your fee should cover all these costs, plus some extra money you deserve. ??This sets your starting price: By knowing your expenses, you can set a baseline price that's fair for you and affordable for those hiring you.

??Be willing to bend a bit, especially starting out: If someone can't pay your full price but offers a chance to get your name out there (exposure), it might be worth it ??Know your bottom line: Figure out the lowest you'll go and be ready to explain why your talk is worth it. ??Be flexible = more chances: By being open to negotiation, you can get more gigs and build connections that could lead to bigger things later.
