Preguntas Frecuentes
What do speakers charge?
Local experts: $1,000-5,000. Industry keynotes: $10,000-50,000. Celebrity speakers: $50,000-500,000+. Most corporate events use mid-tier speakers at $5,000-25,000.
What's included in a speaker fee?
Usually just the presentation. Travel, accommodation, and per diem are typically separate. Some speakers include one planning call; others charge for customization.
How do I negotiate speaker fees?
Ask about non-profit rates, multiple engagement discounts, virtual vs. in-person pricing differences, and whether the topic aligns with their current promotion priorities.
Should I pay for celebrity speakers?
Only if they directly align with your audience and message. A relevant industry expert often delivers more value than a celebrity without domain expertise.
What travel arrangements do speakers expect?
Professional speakers typically expect business class for flights over 4 hours, 4-star hotels, and car service. Some have specific riders—ask upfront to avoid surprises.
