How To Book Your Expert Communication Speaker
We’re here to take the stress out of booking your keynote speaker. Below is an outline of how the research and booking process typically works. We are of course flexible to suit the needs of your internal processes.
(i) The client presents VBQ with a brief including event location, approximate topic and budget.
(ii) VBQ makes keynote speaker recommendations from its global network and additional research, including biographies, video clips, fees and expenses. These recommendations usually include 10-15 candidates. If none of these candidates are suitable, we provide additional recommendations. We never charge a fee for making recommendations.
(iii) VBQ helps the client narrow these recommendations to a shortlist of 3-5 candidates. We then check their availability.
(iv) The client confirms which of the available shortlist they would like to book.
(v) VBQ draws up the contracts for the booking.
(vi) Once contracts have been executed, VBQ works with the client to ensure the logistics and briefing run smoothly, and that the speaker is all set to deliver a great performance!
