How to Use a Seminar Company to Build Your Speaking Business

With The Speaker Lab

Have you heard of seminar companies? Do you know what they do and if they are of value to your speaking career? Today’s special Q&A will answer those questions and more about working with seminar companies.

Seminar companies are companies that present seminars for a fee. Usually, they are attended by employees who have been sent by their employers to learn a specific skill like accounting, social media or finance. The seminars happen all over the country on a daily basis.

On today’s episode, I’ll talk about the big three seminar companies and what my experience was like working for one.
