Frequently Asked Questions

To assist you in making your decision and answer additional questions we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions on this page. If you don't find the right question or need further information please either call or click here to send us an email.  

How much do you charge?  

We pride ourselves on having the ability to present unique presentations to groups of all sizes within all ranges of budgets. Part of our service is to discuss our speaking fees up front with you to best suit your needs and that of your organization.   Please contact us --- we would love to speak with you in person and answer your questions.

Are there any other additional expenses to consider?

In addition to the speaker's appearance fee, you will also be responsible for all of the speaker's expenses necessitated by his or her appearance at your event.  Specifically, additional expenses may include: 

• Ground Transportation (Limousine, taxi, or rental car - to/from departure airport and to/from arrival airport) • Airfare • Accommodations • Meals and Incidental Expenses • Audio-Visual Equipment (slide projector, projection screen, wireless lavaliere microphone, etc.) 

Audio and Video Taping of Appearances:   If you plan to capture your speaker's presentation on audio or video, written permission must be obtained prior to the event.  Depending on the use of the recording, a surcharge may be involved. 

Contracting The Engagement:   It is important to clearly outline the activities in which you wish your speaker to participate in the original contract. For example, if you contract a speaker to deliver only a keynote address, the contract fee is for this service only. Requesting an autograph session or participation in a VIP reception after the contract has been signed may result in additional fees. 

What are the payment terms?

A non-refundable deposit is collected at the time a speaker is booked for your event. This deposit guarantees the date will be reserved for you on the speaker's calendar. In the event of a cancellation by your organization, the deposit will be forfeited. If a cancellation occurs within 60 days of the event date, the entire fee and any already-incurred travel/preparation expenses will be due.  

Is it possible to combine one or more  topics into one presentation?
Yes, you can mix & match.  We will work with you to customize our presentation to best meet the needs of your organization. 

How much notice do you need to speak? 

Uh-oh you just had a speaker cancel and you are in a panic...    

No worries -- if our speaking schedules allow, we can produce a program suited to your needs within days (sometimes even hours).
