This program is everything you will need to become a successful public speaker and make a living out of it. We know that personal coaching with Les isn't cheap and that not everyone can afford it. That’s why, in 2023, we launched the Speak for a Living Program. Every month we hand-select 21 aspiring speakers for a once in a lifetime chance to get their speaking careers off to the best possible starts.
For applications closing May 31, 2024, we will be selecting the speakers by June 5, 2024. The cost of this program is $2,000 and our team can help you secure funding and/or financing options.
Please fill in the below form to apply for all the May 31 Program spots.
21 speakers are selected every month to join the program. They go through a series of training materials from Les Brown, and then work with our marketing, sales, and booking agents to help you find speaking gigs.
Each Speaking for a Living program includes:
Lifetime access to the two flagship Les Brown courses, the Prodigy Program and the Speaking Course, with all accompanying bonus modules and access to the two closed Facebook groups.
$4,000 in budget to have our team work for you on services including graphic design, website design, speech writing & critique, social media marketing, email marketing, etc.
Free press release distribution to hundreds of thousands of readers on eligible partner media outlets and websites.
