What is up, my friend? Welcome back to the speaker lab podcast. Graham Baldwin here. Hope you're

doing well. Hope you're having a great day. Hope life's treating good. Hope you've had a great summer. We are into September now. And we are just a couple days away from starting the Speaker Lab Summit. Yes, that is right. That is again something you've been hearing us talk about for the past several weeks and months. And it is nearly here. And I got to say, we are stoked. I cannot wait for this, really pumped about it.

We've been doing a lot of work behind the scenes just to line up some of the best of the best speakers

and make this a huge event and just a great experience for you, the listener and the viewer.

Because in fact, I don't know if you knew this, but these are all actually online video interviews,

meaning that you don't have to go anywhere. You can stay home. You can watch from your jammy jams. That's totally fine. All right.

You don't have to dress up. You don't have to fly anywhere. You don't have to leave your family.

None of that stuff. And again, it's all video. So you're able to not just have to listen,

but you can actually see and watch as well. Plus, the best part is you can watch all of these videos for free. Yes, that's right. You can go over to thespeakerlabsummit.com. The speakerlabsummit.com register for your free ticket for the speaker lab summit because you're not going to want to miss out. So in the last episode, episode 93, we shared with you just a couple of clips from two of our speakers, Pat Flynn and Tim Sanders. So if you haven't already, definitely go back and listen to that. Today, we're going to share with you two more clips from a couple of our speakers. Today, we're going to be hearing from Andy Andrews and from Dan Miller. Both of these guys are guys that do a lot of speaking, but they're also

well-known authors. I've had very successful books and are really, really good about how they've

built their business beyond the stage. So with Andy, we're going to be talking about why the value

of a speaker is the most important thing that a speaker can offer. So why it's so important for a

speaker to create that value and determine that value. In fact, he gives a great analogy later on. I don't think you're going to hear this clip, but I'm just going to tease you about it. He gives kind of an idea of how a speaker could hypothetically charge a million dollars, which is crazy to think about. So we're going to talk about that today. We're going to be talking about why it's important for speakers to set themselves up for success on how that can be detrimental to your career otherwise. We're going to also talk about how to, if you determine the value that you offers a speaker, that the subject doesn't really matter as much. And so we actually get into that in the later half of the conversation, which you're not going to hear. So I'm just, I'm just teasing you a little bit. I'm just, I know, I'm toying with your emotions right now. So that's what you're going to hear in the first little bit is that conversation and interview with Andy Andrews. On the second half, you're going to hear the first little bit of our conversation with Dan Miller. So Dan is a author of the 48 Days, the work you love is the work that he's most known for.
