PR for Speakers
An organiser has a shortlist and a budget. They are choosing between speakers who all look competent on video. The search results decide it.
Why press works for speakers
Booking a speaker is a risk. If you underwhelm, the person who chose you wears it.
Published expertise reduces that risk. A speaker featured in real publications is a safer choice than one with only a website and a reel — and safer choices get booked. It also gives the organiser something to promote, which is quietly one of the strongest reasons they say yes.
What most speakers get wrong
They pitch their bio.
Editors do not publish speaker credentials. They publish the talk's actual argument — the idea you built the keynote around, the research behind it, the thing audiences push back on.
Publish the idea. Bookings follow the idea, not the bio.
Where we place speaking clients
Business, leadership and general-interest publications — including CEO Weekly, MSN, Women's Journal, NY Weekly and Digital Journal.
What a feature does for your business
A permanent, indexed article that appears when an organiser searches you. A credential for your speaker one-sheet and your agency profile. Something an organiser can share when promoting the event.
It also supports your rate. Speakers with visible published authority negotiate from a stronger position, because the fee has independent justification.
How it works
Share your topic and your argument. We develop the angle, write the piece to editorial standard, and manage placement. You review and revise until it is right, and nothing publishes without your approval.
Frequently asked questions
I am just starting out. Is it too early?
No. Early-stage speakers benefit most, because you are building the credibility that experienced speakers already have. Editors publish ideas, not stage counts.
Will this get me booked directly?
Occasionally an organiser finds you through an article, but the reliable effect is on conversion — you get shortlisted and chosen more often because the research supports you.
Can I put it on my speaker one-sheet?
Yes. Link the live article, describe it accurately, and put it near the top. It is often the strongest item on the page.
