0:22.1	to create that tool for your speaking business in under an hour. For a limited time, we're going to

0:31.9	paid gigs in just a few weeks. If you want to hear more, go to thespeakalab.com slash marketing.

0:53.8	great episode for you. Today we are doing a listener Q&A episode. These are ones that we like to do from time to time where it's not just me talking to someone else, not just me rambling on, but me taking a specific question from you, the listener.
