Choosing the perfect speaker for your next event

Updated: Apr 5

Choosing the right speakers for your conference is pivotal in crafting exceptional content for your program. Great speakers can deeply influence your delegates and effectively convey your message in a clear, concise, creative, and engaging manner. But how do you go about selecting the ideal speaker? Here are three essential tips to consider when booking your next speaker:

 

Define the Purpose of Your Event

Having a clear understanding of the message you aim to deliver to your delegates is crucial in briefing your speakers. The purpose of your event will serve as the foundation for your research in identifying the right speakers. Communicating the purpose will enable them to tailor their presentation to resonate with your delegates effectively.

 



Determine the Type of Speaker

Identifying the type of speaker, you require for your conference or event will help streamline your search. Categorize the subjects you wish your speaker to address. If your goal is to educate your delegates, seek out an industry expert or professional in the field. Alternatively, if you aim to inspire your delegates, consider booking a motivational speaker. Refer to SpeakerHub's infographic for further insights into different types of speakers.

 



Conduct Thorough Research

Once you've outlined your brief and identified potential speakers, it's essential to conduct thorough research. Review their showreels and past presentations to gauge their style and delivery. Additionally, seek feedback from others who have worked with them previously. Investing time in research will help mitigate any potential disappointment regarding their performance at the event.
