The Speaker Lab Opiniones 126

The Speaker Lab gave me that training and structure. It helped me think about warm leads vs. cold leads, how to bring past contacts to something new, how to structure proposals so both sides feel good, and how to set goals that are attainable. It showed me there are actual steps I could follow, and I didn’t have to figure it all out alone...I already had experience, but I was still so impressed with the detailed training on how to present, organize a talk, and behave on stage. Just becoming a better public speaker is a valuable skill for anyone, and The Speaker Lab teaches that—plus the marketing, business, and networking side...Also, the community. It’s active, intelligent, ambitious in a positive way, and very supportive. You get out what you put in, but it’s such a positive group with staying power.

You can’t get ahead. Every time you think you are done paying they want more money. It’s so expensive. All they give you is a blank notebook and a prayer. Save your money. Do your own research. Speak from the heart

Scam. They outright lie about what you are purchasing. Send you blank workbooks. You pay for a specialized niche result and then they send you to a phone call with one of their sales reps. They ignore all emails you sent them templates or refunds.

Update: I wrote to the CEO and he kindly refunded me however I still believe that their sales tactics make it really difficult to get any real information because they upsell you every time you you purchase the next level -well, withholding the information and templates you thought you were buying . And now I have to pay another $497 to get a simple email template, after attending an hour long seminar.

The organization of the program, the consistent communication from The Speaker Lab, and the connection with the coaches made it all manageable...Two things really stood out: Selecting a Problem to Solve and Establishing My Expertise. When I talk to others about The Speaker Lab, I mark those two things that made the program worth it...In the moments I felt lost, the coaches were amazing. They responded so quickly and brought a ton of experience. I’ve never left one of those calls feeling like it was a waste of time.

For anyone who wants to make a business out of speaking, The Speaker Lab shows you how to do that—in an extraordinary way. I like the way the program steps you through everything with “snackable videos” short and interesting. I am impressed by the variety of support systems: the accountability calls, the live calls where you can listen to others in that module—those are very instructive...I feel empowered. I know what to do and how to do it. I’ve had a big speaking life for years, but have not always been paid. Now, I turn down unpaid gigs because I’ve learned, reinforced by Grant and the team, that my time, energy, and creativity are worth something.

Wouldn’t take no for an answer. Harassed and felt obligated to sign up. Don’t bother if you are on the fence just stick to your word and the word is NO

I’ve already recommended The Speaker Lab to several people. Anytime I meet someone who wants to get into speaking, I tell them about The Speaker Lab. The framework gives you structure and organization. Honestly, I haven’t even done everything I’m supposed to do, and I’m still getting lots of business. Once you put the whole system together, the floodgates open.

I recommend not signing up with this company. It's a scam. Their classes aren't good. I didn't learn much, if anything. Some of the coaches don't know what they're doing. Others are disrespectful and even sexual harass and try to gaslight you. They don't do what they say. You're doing all the work. They promise a great search engine that isn't that much better than Google and they only give two months free. I tried to complain about the mistreatment and other issues and their Concierge customer service team lied and said they never received notification about my complaints even though I have multiple emails to them they ignored. Stay away from the coach Jeremy, and do yourself a favor and don't sign up for this. Right now I'm fighting to get my money refunded from them. It's a waste of your time and hard-earned money. You'll do better on your own as a speaker than with this company.

I’m in the National Speakers Association of Georgia and whenever I have speakers come up to me from that group at events and they say, “You seem so polished. How did you get here?” I will say, “I went through The Speaker Lab." I always tell them The Speaker Lab helps you really get organized with the business...They can really help you get organized and get started on the right foot. Whether you’re just starting off or you’ve been a speaker for a long time, be willing to invest in yourself. It is an investment but it’s to help you get better. I’ve already made back the money that I’ve invested in The Speaker Lab. So it is very much worth it. I would tell anybody who wants to get serious about it to go for it.

I took the 2 day bootcamp and learned a great deal plus reinforced a lot of other business knowledge that I had gained elsewhere which let me know that I was on they were on the right track with what I had previously learned. It's a lot of material in a short amount of time - highly condensed into 2 days but a good amount of material. many other creatives and entrepreneurs attend and hearing their thoughts and ideas and questions was highly helpful as well.

I’d recommend The Speaker Lab to anyone starting their speaking journey. Even if you’re not ready to make a big investment, there are outstanding free resources—the website, the podcast, the virtual bootcamps. I’m a huge fan of The Speaker Lab podcast. It’s practical, grounded, and filled with real stories from real speakers. It made me feel like, “I can do this too.”

I joined the Elite program, and it was absolutely worth it. It gave me the tools, the clarity, and the confidence to launch my speaking business. And I’m proud to say that I recently paid off the investment early—thanks to one big gig.

Avoid the program, dont sign a contract, remedial material and false and fraudulent deceptive practices by Founder and client services it is all about taking your money with no guarantees or refunds. I have filed with the BBB, and other agencies about their deceptive false and fraudulent practices which they have changed from "guaranteed six figure income for Speaking" to "Speaking gigs". I believe they have abandoned their building in Nashville. They will lie and cheat to take your money. The course is remedial and it will not get you speaking gigs.....you pay them and do all the work including cold calls and prospecting. If the speaker was so reputable they would supply you with contacts names and numbers for speaking. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME. I will continue to fight fraud against consumers like this company.

Avoid at all costs.
The salesmen claimed to be a speaking coach who has used elements of the speaker labs program with his own students and saw much success. He called it the best program out there, again he claimed to be a speaking professional.
He claimed “most students make their money back before the program is over”. He said that SIX TIMES.
He promised 300 warm leads and day-of support to any question.

He was in fact not a paid speaker, and according to his own LinkedIn he had never even been a speaker.
1/13 of my cohort made their money back in the 6 months. She has been a paid speaker for 10 years. I was also told since I’m new I would have to do several talks for free to get my name out there. I had asked the “professional speaker” aka my salesmen about this before I signed up. He assured me this program was so good that me being new wouldn’t matter.

I was laughed at by a teacher when I asked about those warm leads I was promised.

I tried to sue them but due to their terms of service I cannot. They have a clause that legally allows their employees to say whatever they want. So all those lies I was fed, were perfectly legal and cannot fall on the company.

Shame on you Speaker Lab, they allow their salesmen to say whatever they want to get a sale.
Then show 0 remorse when they get caught for lying. They wouldn’t even give me half my money back.
Honestly I bet the positive reviews they have on this site are falsified as well.

Do not trust anything this company says, avoid like the plague.

The people in The Speaker Lab–the coaches, the Community Manager, the Concierges–walked me through whenever I had a problem. I’d shoot an email, say, “Hey, help! Red flag! I don’t know what I’m doing here.” And I would get an answer, so TSL just really held my hand through it.If you’re prepared to drill down and really chase it, if you feel in your heart that this is what you were meant to do, even if you’re even a little unsure, I would invest and do it anyway because waiting around is not going to make your dream happen. Take advantage of every aspect of the program.
And it’s there forever, which is the greatest part–when you forget something or you have a question, you can go back in the program and you can kind of re-educate yourself.

When you go into The Speaker Lab, one of the things I told myself is, “I’m investing in me now. I'm investing in my family.” So there's the cost, whatever that requires, but you know what? It's worth it because you're investing in yourself." Really enjoyed my experience in the program!

I would recommend The Speaker Lab for anyone that is interested in becoming a speaker. It’s a really great zero to hero framework. They embrace you wherever you’re at. I met people who were further on the journey, people who were just starting like me, and it’s a very welcoming community. It’s a great place to start. If you’re on the fence, because it is a huge investment, I would just say, if this is something that you want and you believe in yourself, you’re going to get the money back eventually because of the way speaking gigs are paid. This is just a really great place to build that confidence, to get clearer in your message and to network.

Very shady company. They ask for more and more money and make promises that never happen. Paying someone to teach you how to get jobs makes no sense. Speak with your heart not your wallet.

Having The Speaker Lab come alongside me, hold my hand and really give me that nudge that I needed was invaluable because it just affirmed that I had a lot of the skill sets, and The Speaker Lab allowed me to scale them. I felt like The Speaker Lab affirmed to me that there are so many like-minded people at different stages of their journey. It was just nice to have that cohort of others that were walking in my shoes, and it did give me a level of comfortability to know I’m not alone...I had underestimated how much that one-on-one coaching would benefit me in terms of making sure that I checked off my list of next steps and continued moving forward because we can easily get stuck and we can sort of talk ourselves out of ultimately getting that ball down the field...I definitely feel like I’m a part of this Speaker Lab family far beyond my training."

Phenomenal coaches who are readily available - and a great community!

In March, April, May, I will speak about 35 times. I just didn’t have a way to organize that before, to really kind of put myself out there with the abstract and all that, so to be organized feels really good and came as a result of the SPEAK Framework...Because of the clarity that The Speaker Lab brings, I would definitely recommend this to my buddies in ministry and to the nonprofit leaders. Get involved in this. Take this. Get involved in the SPEAK framework, and learn how to organize so that you can easily say, "This is what I bring to the table. If you want to bring me in, here’s what I’m going to talk about.”
