This is a terrific book worth reading again and again , it is replete with enough clear-cut information and truly, many will not do all things written here except the hungry!, I hope to apply all immediately and get as many stage time as possible! I still do not fully understand why Brian gave away this valuable book free of any charge! You made my day Brian! thank you Sir!

The title of this book certainly grabbed my attention. I couldn't wait to read it. Unfortunately, the content failed to deliver on the promises. I have read similar content in other books about public speaking.
Having said that, the book was well written and I especially liked the real examples the author used from his past speaking engagements.
The author is a great speaker, but I was left wanting more.

Solid and useful ideas
It's a pleasure to read a book by someone who bases his suggestions on years of practical personal experience. No nonsense here, but lots of ideas I wish I had known when I started my speaking career. And I happily confess, a few I can make use of now. Don't know if my speaking income will hit 6 figures immediately, but Tracy's guidance certainly is appreciated.

Public speaking blue print
I have read many of Brian Tracy's books and have gained much more then I acpected. He highlights many important messages in this book. I also joined toastmasters to gain greater impact on stage. I read this book to find tips on gaining access more on stage and other tips on training. Great book for anyone who wants to take public speaking serious in their lives

Good book with great ideas.
In preparing to launch my new speaking career, I picked up this book. Most of the ideas were not new to me, however I did get some that were worth my time reading about.

When trying to master a skill, it is good to learn from the best, and one of the best to learn from when it comes to making a living from public speaking one is Brian Tracy.
brian tracyHis latest book "The Six-Figure Speaker: The Ultimate Blueprint to Build a Business as a Highly-Paid Professional Speaker" is an excellent behind-the-scenes look at how Tracy built and runs his speaking business. While overviewing some of the basics of public speaking, he offers several small, but powerful tips. He also details how he used his 10k hours and 300 free talks to go from a disaster to a master.
Mixed among his polished style that most of us are familiar with, he throws in a few of his jabs at those fakers out there who are only in public speaking for the money rather than delivering a message. Tracy says over and over again that the 6-Figure Speaker delivers a message from the heart knowing the money will follow. This philosophy seems to have worked well for him.
He reminds the reader over and over that 95% of developing a six-figure income is finding an audience to speak to. In addition to becoming an excellent public speaker, we must become excellent marketers.
While the amateur speaker holds back on some of his best content so that he can sell them a larger package later. Tracy says no to this. Give them more value than they expect. When they know the amazing value you gave them, they will come back for more. He talks about giving clients a reason to call you back. This is how he built his business.
Work toward becoming the expert. Niche down to an area for which you have the most passion. This will build your credibility, which Tracy says is worth more than gold to a 6-Figure speaker.
I am using the material from this book to create my action plan to get to that six-figure level. While I may never earn $100,000 because my field is not as profitable, there's no reason why I shouldn't work toward that goal.
If this level of speaking interest you, I would encourage you to get a copy of "The Six-Figure Speaker."

Brian Tracy has been giving away his new book, and for good reason. Although it is clearly written and contains good information, it is a regurgitation of basic knowledge. He will sell lots of books based in his name alone, and many people who read the book will buy the products and services he is selling at the end.
A classic example of the ubiquitous and annoying book as extended brochure model of marketing.

A Great Blueprint
Brian takes his vast knowledge of the speaking circuit and gives you the tools to start your own speaking career. Just like he does with his speaking this book goes to a point where he leaves you wanting more.

Quite shallow. Has put together common sense and doesn't teach you how to become a good speaker. You need other books for that.

Enjoyed the ideas!
To be a 6 figure speaker one day. How wonderful that would be! Thanks, Brian Tracy for the helps, stories, and suggestions.

The language the author used was really an art, so was the orchestra of content.
