SPEAKING ENGAGEMENT BIBLE2013 14-
101CREATING A SPEAKER’S BUREAU
SPEAKING TOPICSSUGGESTED
SPEAKER’S PROFILECREATE A
A speakers profile is a document that explains
who the speaker is. This document should include
a brief biography of the speaker including his/
her experiences, awards, and other achievements
that give the speaker credibility to speak on the
topic that you are trying to portray. Include a
professional picture of the speaker and your company logo as well.
Include all of the possible topics that the
speaker can speak about. Giving the
organization you wish to speak to options will
give you more of a chance in securing the gig.
Each topic you present should also include a
short summary explaining what the audience
should expect and learn from your speech.
Include the amount of time each speech
typically lasts and what demographic they are
aimed at. Listing quotes by other’s that have
heard the speaker’s presentation in the past can
be a helpful addition, increasing the odds that you will get booked.
They WANT you to call! They WANT you to call! { }
1
OF COMPANYSUMMARY
If your speaker is speaking on behalf of the
company they work for be sure to include a brief
description of the company, along with a link to
the company website. This will give the
organization an opportunity to learn about the
company’s history and see if it is a fit for what
they are looking for. Within this summary, be
sure to include the contact information of a
representative of the company so the
organization you will be speaking for can
contact your company if any other information
is needed.
PHONE PITCHESYour phone pitch will be helpful when you are
making those endless calls to organizations to try
and secure a speaking engagement. Write
yourself an opening line and prepare questions
so the call goes smoothly. Also, have your
calendar out and ready to help you with
scheduling. Even though you may be dreading
these calls the have to be done. Just remember
this in not a “typical” cold call. The businesses
you are calling have programs that speakers are
needed for. They WANT you to call.
CONFIRMATIONOnce you have secured an opportunity, follow up with the organization with a confirmation letter. Having it on paper will create more security. The last thing you want is your hard work of calling and securing a gig to be forgotten conversation.

6 Create a picture. Use analogies, stories, and
humor frequently to connect with the audience
and brings your message to life. If humor
doesn’t come naturally, do not try to force it.
.
7 Pay attention to the audience’s reaction. If you
see people that seem bored, do something that
will grab their attention and regain focus on
you. Examples on how to regain this focus is by
changing topics or opening the floor to questions.
8 Ask attendees to evaluate the speaker. Provide
general feedback on the speaker’s presentation
by completing an evaluation form within 10 days of the program.
Avoid disagreements with the audience. If an
audience member makes a comment that is
bad-mannered, use that as an opening to teach
and share information rather than create a
personal challenge.
Use language appropriate for the audience
you’re speaking to. For a younger audience, refrain from using difficult terminology.
Speak simply and clearly. If you must use
complicated language be sure to keep it to a
minimum and explain any words that a
layperson might not understand.
Only speak about things that you are
passionate or knowledgeable about. This will
help you maintain high energy, and if you forget
your script you can keep going.
Prior to the event, re-confirm with the details of
the speaking engagement, including handout
information and overnight accommodations, if necessary.
