Have you ever seen an expert on TV and thought “That should be me!"

It’s frustrating to sit on the sidelines when you have so much knowledge and life experience to share. So how do you get to be the expert the media calls when news breaks in your field? How to you get booked to speak at conferences and events? And if you’re already out there speaking, how do you get more gigs and more media attention? Most speakers either register with a speakers bureau or sign up for a paid listing service on the web.

What’s best for me—a speakers bureau or a listing service?

Speakers bureaus often prefer high-profile clients with high-end promotional materials, and they take a percentage of each gig they book. If you do qualify for a bureau, it’s worth a try, and we say, “Go for it.” But many new and experienced speakers prefer a listing service, because event planners, talk show producers, and anyone who needs a speaker can contact you directly (no middleman), and you get to call the shots. For example: You don’t have to pay 25-35% to an agent (standard), you can develop promotional materials at your own pace, and you can rest assured that you have a great web presence as you build your speaking career. That’s why we only charge $9.95/month. We believe that maintaining a web presence should be an expense so low that you don’t have to think about it.

We can help jump-start or boost your speaking career.

Speaker Services has been bringing speakers and audiences together since 1994. We started with a print directory mailed to thousands of meeting planners, until our founder, Susan Levin, jumped on a new-fangled thing called the Internet, and we became one of the first 1500 websites to hit cyberspace.

Do I have to be the top expert on the planet to be a speaker?

No. Lots of folks have knowledge and skills, but what counts most in the speaking world is the passion to share your expertise. You’ve probably seen “experts” out there who know less than you do about your topic, but it’s their desire to communicate that makes them public speakers, while you sit on the sidelines. The secret to building your speaking career is to allow your desire to share what you know overcome any fear or self-doubt. The speakers who are “out there” are those whose passion for their subject transcends everything else.
