You Don’t Need More Speaker Choices. You Need The Right Speaker Choices.

Selecting a keynote speaker for your event isn’t just about scrolling through a list of names until something catches your eye. It should be a deliberate process that align perfectly with your event’s goals, audience expectations, and desired impact.

At Epic Keynotes, we understand the significance of this decision, which is why we employ a meticulous and intentional approach to guide our clients through every step.

The Speaker Selection Process

One of the hallmarks of our approach is the curation of a limited selection of speakers for you to consider. After our initial consultation, the speaker selection process begins where we present you with a carefully curated list of only three speakers per round.

Rather than inundating you with endless options, this method of reviewing three speakers per round allows you to spend your time considering only the speakers who are most aligned with your event’s needs and who we can guarantee are actually amazing on stage.

We also only recommend speakers who have the collateral you need to truly consider them, including quality sample speaking video, testimonials, and a track record of successful keynotes. By having the information you need  to make swift and confident decisions, our clients typically select their ideal speaker within the first or second round of recommendations.

Establishing the Speaker Review Procedure

Navigating the decision-making process can be complex, especially when multiple stakeholders are involved. We streamline this by establishing a clear review procedure from the outset. By defining timelines, setting expectations for feedback, and outlining the criteria for evaluation, we ensure that every stakeholder has a role in the decision-making process.

This structured approach fosters collaboration and efficiency, minimizing the risk of compromises in speaker selection or delays due to decision paralysis.
