Planning an event that calls for a guest speaker can be stressful. There’s creating the budget, finding the venue, and finding the right guest speaker. This is because you want your guests to engage with your speaker. Most importantly you want someone who will interest the audience. But it doesn’t have to be because there are so many resources you can use to find one. Here are a couple of ways to choose someone who will match your event and be enjoyed by your guests.
Search Through Your LinkedIn Contacts
LinkedIn is the most popular online networking website. It’s good for many things, including finding the best candidate for the event to speak at. This is because it is full of business professionals who are more than willing to share their experiences with the world.
Therefore, begin reviewing your contacts, if any, and choose someone who will match your event. Or search throughout the site for speakers around the area. The only stress-free thing about this is, it will be easy to get in touch with them.
Use the National Speakers Association Website
Another way you can find the right guest speaker for your event is by using the National Speakers Association website. It is a website dedicated to professional speakers. This organization specializes in training people to become professional speakers. Most importantly, it can connect you with professionals who are exceptional public speakers.
Speaker Match
One more website you can use is Speaker Match. It’s another website dedicated to professional speakers. This site allows you to post an ad requesting a speaker for your upcoming event. Most importantly, this site has about a thousand of professional speakers you can choose from. They also have online profiles that you can review or contact them with.
Check Your Local University
Lastly, another good resource is asking your local university. These institutions have guest speakers visit all the time, and so they should be in good contact with them. Just asking the person who coordinates all the events for some contacts will help you find the right person for the event.
Moreover, college professors can make for good guest speakers, too. I mean, it’s their job to get in front of people and talk. They are also very knowledgeable, and with so many subjects to study, you can find a professor in any field.
When choosing a guest speaker for your event, it’s important to pick someone who will interest your audience. Therefore, by using these websites and places that have experienced guest speakers, your event will be worthwhile.
