Frequently asked questions

FAQ's for Speakers

FAQ's for Meeting Planners below

 

How do I become a member of the Get Found Now! club?

You will find many member benefits and speaker resources to assist you in growing your business. Click here for more information on the benefits of joining, then once you've decided to join, simply sign-up for only $39.95!

What if I join the Get Found Now! club and I feel it isn’t a right fit for me?

If you feel at anytime our member site is not benefiting you as a speaker you can cancel your membership at anytime…no questions asked.

I applied for a speaking lead in the Get Found Now! club, do you determine who the speaker will be?

No, Charli Jane is not the final decision maker. Charli Jane is the ‘go-between’ offering the leads to our members. If they find a lead in the member area, it is their responsibility to follow-up on the lead either by submitting their proposal online to the hiring party or sending an email directly to the organizer.

Where do I find the leads?

Once you sign-up to become a member you will have immediate access to the member area. Inside the member area you will find a section for USA, Canada and International speaking leads, simply scroll through them until you find one that you feel would be a fit then follow the links to learn more or submit your proposal.

Are all the leads free speaking engagements?

No, all the leads will either be free, small fee or expenses paid. Please note: this is important to understand that if you do not see a $ by the lead DO NOT PASS IT UP, I have seen time after time that when a speaking lead was originally posted as a no fee lead it has turned into a fee based lead because the organizer was so happy with the speaker and wanted to hire them for their event that they offered them a fee.

So, if you see a fit and it’s no fee, follow up with it and work with the planner you may be surprised what the final results are! Also, if it’s a no fee remember to take advantage of the opportunity whether it’s to sell BOR or to open doors for additional opportunities.

Speaking for free is okay once in awhile and can be an excellent opportunity to gain additional exposure, build your credibility, network, and make an excellent profit if you have products to sell…keep your mind open and don’t be so stubborn you just left a wonderful opportunity laying on the table for someone else to come and pick up. There are many ways to seize the opportunity of a free engagement, if you need ideas let me know.

I would like to represented by Charli Jane Speakers, how can I do this?

We only take on a select amount of speakers for representation, please visit our representation page to learn more.  As of 2010 our speaker roster is complete and we do not have any current openings, however if you are interested please let us know and we can put you on our wait-list which is based on first come first served, having requested material, and if you are not in direct competition with another represented speaker.

Do you offer any products or additional services to help me with my speaking business?

Yes, Charli Jane continues to build and create its product line to assist speakers in growing their business. We also offer coaching for those who are serious about taking the next step and moving up to the next level in their speaking career. You can learn more about our coaching programs here.

Do I need to be a member to use your coaching service?

Absolutely not - Anyone can use our coaching programs at anytime and we highly encourage speakers who would like to advance and move to the next level in their speaking career to take advantage of our wonderful coaching programs.

How do I cancel my membership?

If you would like to cancel your membership please send us an email or call us before your monthly subscription is due and we will cancel your account for you. Please note all cancellations must be done before your monthly billing. Once you have been billed we can not reverse the billing transaction so please if you are going to cancel do so before your monthly billing. Please read our terms and policy

If I get an engagement from a lead found in the Get Found Now! club do I have to pay a commission or any other fees?

No, we bring speakers and planners together by providing speaking leads in the Get Found Now! club. There are no commission or referral fees involved and the only fee you pay is your monthly membership fee and that’s it.

What is your suggestions and advice in using the membership area?

Use the membership area to your advantage! Learn from it, gain from it and improve from it! First I will say this; Opportunities are available only to those that are ready for success! That means if you’re not looking for every possible opportunity that can open many doors of additional opportunities then you’re not quite ready to become successful.

You have to interact with the planners, the organizers, and the media, build relationships, network and let your presence be known…let them know you are the expert, otherwise they won’t even know you exist! It’s like opening up shop in the middle of the woods…no one is going to know your deep in the woods, that you have an excellent service to provide if you don’t let them know! Get yourself out…network…market…let them know you are the expert!

Take advantage of the valuable contacts that are provided in the member area regardless if you feel the lead is a fit or not because that particular contact can become very valuable in the near future…remember to look for unexpected opportunities, as quoted by one of our members, “The new look of your site pulls you in and keeps you there, that is a wonderful feeling and I hope you don't get tired of hearing how much information is there. So much to choose from, I feel like a kid in a candy shop” read what more happy clients are saying here.

Sometimes opportunities can come in many different forms and those that can find the “hidden” opportunities will be the ones that advance in their speaking career much quicker. Don’t be blinded to an opportunity when it’s looking you directly in the face…open your mind to what could come of that opportunity, where could it take you? How can you leverage it? Sometimes we overlook the smallest thing…the smallest opportunity and not even realizing that it could have been one of the biggest stepping stones to success!
