    We will quote you the best price available, and you do not have to pay travel costs. Most of our speakers range from $2k-$10k; however, if you are flexible on your event date or choose a time frame that a speaker is already in your area, we can help you save money. Remember, with a speaker; you are risking your reputation and the impact of your event. It’s best to hire the best rather than skimp out and hire a speaker who flops.
