Our portfolio of speakers come with a variety of backgrounds and experience, and include bestselling authors, successful entrepreneurs, incredible athletes, and more. Pricing for hiring great speakers is variable, and we will find a speaker that meets your price range.

Attending speaking engagements is also a perfect way to share information with employees, especially when there’s a change in company management or policies. Your club or organization will enjoy hearing from a seasoned professional speaker on a topic that relates to the group.

The motivational speakers we represent don’t just do all the talking -- they also get people to ask important questions and to start communicating with each other.
