How Can a Speakers Bureau Help If Something Goes Wrong?

What role does a keynote speaker’s bureau play?

When something goes wrong with your keynote speaker booking, you have to think of your keynote speaker bureau as insurance or a safety net.

Sometimes emergencies happen and a speaker can’t make it. The best speaker bureaus have backup speakers ready and can quickly arrange last-minute replacements, handling all of the logistics.

If you’d like to learn a little bit more about how this. Reach out to me and we can discuss this further.

Speakers bureaus have an extensive network of keynote speakers, including those who are not easily accessible through conventional channels. By working with a bureau, a meeting planner can tap into this pool of talent and find the perfect speaker for their event.

So reach out to us and let’s collaborate in booking a keynote speaker for your next event.

How Much Lead Time Do You Need to Book a Keynote Speaker?

How Much Lead Time Do You Need to Book a Keynote Speaker?

At The Keynote Curators, we recommend a 6-12 month lead time if your planning allows.

Keynote speaker calendars fill up quickly – especially those big household names. As soon as you know what type of speaker you’re looking for, begin the research and outreach through a trusted partner.

The saying “the early bird gets the worm” usually applies when booking keynote speakers, especially if they’re celebrities or other well-known people.

Let us connect you to your next celebrated speaker.

Will We See You On-Site at The Event?

Will We See You On-Site at The Event?

Yes. When you book a keynote speaker through The Keynote Curators, my presence onsite at the event is recommended, comes at no expense, and delivers assurance that your speaker will receive the utmost care. I offer support with logistics, allowing you to focus on the big picture:

  • Meeting the keynote speaker upon arrival
  • Escorting them to sound check, introducing them to the production crew
  • Interacting with security as needed (celebrities especially)
  • Ensuring the photo opp/book signing runs smoothly
  • Seeing the speaker off after their keynote

The Keynote Curators will be your collaborative partner, from pre-event planning to onsite execution. Let us connect you to your next celebrated keynote speaker.

I’ve been Speaking professionally for 21 years and work with the largest agencies in the world. I’m a Hall of Fame keynote speaker and a New York Times best selling Author. I have can honestly say in full confidence that Seth Dechtman and his team at Keynote Curator is the best agency I have been honored to work with. I’ve witnessed Seth’s client focused relationship skills On multiple occasions. His clients love him and he’s detail oriented and has great communication skillls. But most importantly, I’ve been on the receiving side of his servant, focused leadership style. He treats me like a valued partner and emulates everything a wingman is.

A Treasure Trove for Anyone Involved in Speaker Selection! As someone deeply involved in the intersection of marketing and technology at AImpact, I find the process of selecting the right keynote speaker to be a critical part of any successful event. Seth Dechtman's "The Keynote Curators" podcast is nothing short of a godsend for anyone facing the challenges and opportunities that come with this task. Seth brings an almost poetic understanding to the power of words, acknowledging that a speech isn't just a scheduled event but a transformative experience that can change the dynamics of an entire room. His enthusiasm for the craft is contagious, making each episode a joy to listen to.
