Rise of the Entrepreneur – Episode 58 with Kristin Thompson

Kristin Thompson

Kristin Thompson is a successful speaker, coach and entrepreneur who helps others grow their brand and business through public speaking.

Today Kristin is an entrepreneur and owner of her own brand and business at Speak Serve Grow. However, it wasn’t always a life of glitz and glamour for Kristin… there were actually several waves of challenges along the way.

Kristin got her start in the sales coaching business and it was her job to speak in front of people and also to get them to take action in order for her to get her next pay check. Like many individuals who are working for someone else, Kristin soon found herself without a job. Through her experience and skills in speaking to crowds for her previous job, Kristin set out to start a business of her own by helping others learn how to do the same. Jump forward a few years and Kristin has generated $10K, $30K and even $50k payouts from her live events and speaking!
