Looking for a Speaker?

One of the more difficult tasks faced by any PA is that started by the Boss’s call to, “Find me a great guest speaker (or celebrity) for the National Conference!

Where do you start, who do you ask and most critically, what do you pay? It sounds like a fun task when you commence it but can rapidly descend in a game of hardball tennis with someone who purports to be the Speaker’s Agent and demands a massive fee and only reluctantly admits that he can’t actually get you Robbie Williams but he does have the inside track to his cousin Pete.

APA now has a data source of most of the major (and heap of minor) professional speakers and celebrities available today and this can be accessed by Members free of charge and by non-members for less than £100 – just call APA on 0800 107 1030 for more details. We will tell you the price range for each speaker and offer a selection of those who may be available to meet your needs.

So, whether you want Michael McIntyre to host your Client Awards Ceremony, James Caan to whip up your Shareholders Dinner, Claudia Winkleman to motivate your sales force or Karen Brady to kick some life into your company then APA can help make it happen.
