CommissionFreeSpeakers.com - is due to launch Fri/Sat.

I have 14 pages completed and 48 more are half-written. The annual membership fee which includes a private marketing forum for speakers will be $89.00 a year until Dec. 31. If you want to save $40, you can join by Friday Sept. 14 by making payment on the prototype sub-domain by PayPal or by debit card with logo (and credit card). Just click on the heading above to get to the payment page. You can then complete the application at any time.... but ideally within one week. This offer expires in 2 days.

I'll upload the completed pages on Friday or Saturday which means the prototype site with the lower fee will disappear at the same time. So if you have any thoughts of gaining visibility and income as a speaker do consider the benefits of joining Commission-Free Speakers. This $89 service is an affordable alternative to my far more expensive promotional campaigns; the differences being the price and also that you will be promoted as a group, rather than individually.

Remember that $152,000 I'm raising so I can give away my condo? CommissionFreeSpeakers.com will not be a huge money maker for me, but the proceeds (about $85 net after transaction fees are subtracted) will all be counted in the $152,000. So if 200 new speakers join at $89, that will raise $17,000 over a year. Not a lot, but it's a start. And reports, manual, tip sheets and booklets sold will also count.

You can also purchase gift certificates for speakers you know who cannot afford the membership fee. What a great way to help someone with speaking skills and knowledge to share start to earn a good income.
