Work Hard and Long Hours and You Will Succeed,
By
This review is from: How to Make Fortune (Paperback)
At the price it is a real bargain--despite its age. This book tells you in great detail how to make money by public speaking. The strategy on how to get started is only one of many possible approaches. If you are sure that you want to do public speaking for a living, this book would be a good place to start. Example: Section on how to get engagements even if you are an unknown. This book could discourage you from trying to make a living through public speaking as it is very honest about the work that may be involved. This book does not lack for fine details about his recipe.

Be Your Own Publicity Agent,
By
This review is from: How to Make Fortune (Paperback)
Although a great deal of what's in this book is true, you definitely have to make your own workbook, and replace some suggestions that Dr. Robert Anthony makes, with some of the modern tools. For example, he suggest that you make a booklet, a newsletter and related literature. I suggest that you replace this with: write articles that you have published, on topics that you believe you are an expert on. And do this, even if you are told that you won't be paid. What you are interested in is establishing your name, and having many people identify you according to your chosen expertise. Also, place all of this information in loose leaf binder, so that you free to make notes, as you ask questions to people in the public speaking industry (meeting planners; publicity agents; journalist; etc.). To be an public speaker you must decide that you are a public speaker, then do what they do, so that you have all that that means. An excellent author, on this topic, which Dr. Anthony also recommends is, Lily Waters and her daughter (both have an excellent standing in teaching public speaking).

OK, But very dated,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Make Fortune (Paperback)
C'mon, Dr. Anthony, You wrote your book in 1983. Haven't you learned anything new since then? Granted, there are some good key points about the public speaking business, but the resources you refer to are all out of date. There are many newer, more current books on this subject. I would not recommend it.
