149. How to Manage Your Time as an Entrepreneur and International Speaker With Josh Steimle - a podcast by Grant Baldwin

Today on The Speaker Lab Podcast, I have Josh Steimle Entrepreneur and International Speakers, here to talk about how he manages his time while owning an international marketing agency and speaking around the world.

Josh Steimle has locations in China, the U.S., and the U.K. Finding the time and resources to land more speaking gigs while being a full-time entrepreneur is a real struggle.

Maybe you work a full-time corporate job and you're struggling to book paid gigs.

If so, you are not alone.

Today, Josh generously shares his quandaries and I help him find solutions.

THE FINER DETAILS OF THIS SHOW:   

• How Josh manages an international team with three office locations
• When it's worth his time to speak for free
• What obstacles that stop him from speaking more, and what he can do about them
• Why you should know the lifetime value of a client
• What activities can you outsource in pursuit of new speaking opportunities
• If it is ever okay to have someone else write your pitch emails
