# Discovery Call with Shelley Dolley with Shelley Dolley

> 30 minutes, no charge This call is for established business speakers who want to talk through where their business is and whether I'm the right person to help. I advise on the business around your speaking: how you're positioned, what you charge, and what event organizers evaluate before they book you. Delivery coaching and speechwriting aren't what I do. Six short questions come with the booking, plus space for anything else you'd like to add. Your answers shape the conversation, so specifics help. I read every booking before we meet, and if your answers tell me I'm not the right person for where your business is, I'll email you ahead of time rather than have us find out together.
