How quickly can I have a motivational speaking business active and making money?
That will depend entirely upon you. Someone with experience can literally have themselves up and running within the first week after reading the very first lesson. A complete beginner with virtually no history with public speaking jobs can have everything in place after the first five lessons (I explain every step of the process in step-by-step chunks during the introductory month.) Most people are somewhere in the middle. So, the answer truly is one week to six months, depending upon your experience and your pace of deliberation, action and progress.
