A speakers bureau like Promenade, that follows a “broker” model means they don’t rely on their own “exclusive” talent. Meeting and event organizers partnering with this bureau type benefit in many ways:
- Short event planning lead times benefit from a conflict-free single sourcing contact.
- The number of professional speakers is in the tens of thousands and growing rapidly. A speaker specialist without contractual ties to a select few is best able to keep up with them.
- More consistent talent recruiting approach, contracting and payment terms.
- No need to re-explain how your company works to each speaker who is approached or booked, every event.
- Objective, strategically sound recommendations.
- Instead of self-serving pitches from each speaker or celebrity bureaus that favor their “exclusive” rosters. Celebrity bureaus are heavily incentivized to recommend their exclusives.
- Global reach – talent network throughout the US, Canada and overseas.
- Relationships with multiple celebrity bureaus, to access their best resources at no extra cost.
- Unbiased perspective on of which speakers have the right experience, content, temperament, pricing, AV technology and flexibility for your virtual/hybrid events.
