Episode 6: Sales Super Star to Influential Speaker – Ryan Estis
“This is a business, and every business needs clients. I’ve spent my whole life securing clients, so I’m going to treat this like a business.”
How do you go from sales leader to highly paid keynote speaker? In this episode of Speak & Inspire Action, Dr Nick Morgan and John Israel sit down with best-selling author, sales leadership expert, and professional speaker Ryan Estis to explore what it really takes to build a successful speaking career. Ryan shares how he moved from corporate sales into professional speaking, developed his thought leadership, earned five-figure keynote fees, and learned to treat speaking as a serious business. They also discuss public speaking, storytelling, finding your message, improving your craft, and why the best speakers eventually stop trying to prove themselves and start focusing on serving the audience.
