Public Speaking Program Feasibility Study

What a good one includes

• A detailed target audience profile that identifies the specific fears, goals, and professional backgrounds of your ideal coaching clients.
• A comprehensive competitor matrix mapping out local and online public speaking programs to pinpoint your unique market gap.
• A tiered pricing model that balances private coaching, group workshops, and digital offerings to maximize your revenue potential.
• An operational resource plan outlining the exact software, venue requirements, and materials needed to deliver your program seamlessly.
• A step-by-step launch timeline that coordinates your marketing efforts, pilot sessions, and open registration periods.
• A financial break-even analysis calculating your startup costs, ongoing overhead, and the minimum client volume required for profitability.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Designing a complex, multi-week curriculum before validating that clients are actually willing to pay for that specific learning format.
• Pricing services too low out of imposter syndrome, which devalues your expertise and leads to fast business burnout.
• Targeting everyone who wants to be confident instead of narrowing down to a specific, high-intent niche like introverted executives or nervous wedding speakers.
• Overlooking the administrative time and costs of client onboarding, booking platforms, and post-session support in your operational planning.
