Summary

Something you may not know is how much overlap there is between how to get sponsorships, and how to land speaking gigs. The art of finding, connecting and working with the right people is critical to success in both arenas.

And a man who has succeeded in both of those areas, landing sponsorships and speaking gigs, is our guest for today's show. Mr. Jason Zook joins us to talk about the early days of his speaking career, why he's put that part of his career on hold right now and everything you could possibly want or need to know about securing sponsorships for your business.

On episode 48 of The Speaker Lab, we distill the immense wisdom Jason has gained in 8 years and pass as much of it as we can on to you during today's show. From sponsorships to speaking to finding oddball size shoes, it's all here so sit back and enjoy.
