Dear Meeting Planner,
I know your job is tough and you are very busy. I have tried to include as many resources as possible that we are asked to provide and get you 24 hours a day. If you still don't see what you need, please feel free to email:

Selecting a speaker for your program is an important endeavor. In addition, the skills and knowledge that you need will determine who will be the best fit for you and the program. Would you mind if I ask you a few questions on that note? Have you thought about…
- What it is that you are looking for participants to see different, say different, feel differently about, or do different as a result of the presentation?
- What would you like for them to stop (or start) doing as a result of this presentation?
- What is the ideal participant feedback that you would like to hear not only about this session, but about the entire event?
- How, or by what means, will you KNOW that the speaker for this presentation has met all of your expectations? (i.e., what people have said, what they do, looks on their face, feedback days later, etc)
There are many more logistics and questions to discuss if you feel we should discuss this opportunity further. It would be an honor to work with you.
My goal is to be the easiest speaker in the world to work with!
To that end I promise:
- I will return your calls promptly, and in a timely manner.
- I will notify you first when I arrive at the meeting location.
- I will make you look great in the eyes of your attendees and co-workers.
- I will never use off-color language or material.
- I will deliver an exceptionally provocative presentation in a highly professional manner.
Seize the Moment!

"We’ve had the pleasure of hearing some great speakers over the past many years, and some have received pretty high acclaim, but I can say with all honesty – you’re right up at the top. I had both ‘old-timers’ and ‘rookies’ come to me during and after the Conference, and thank me for scheduling you to speak to the OAB. Jim, 'Thank you!' you made me look like a genius for hiring you, and every meeting planner needs that once in a while."
-Bill Johnstone, Executive Director, Oregon Association of Broadcasters
