The right speaker can make a good
event great. A bad speaker can ruin a career.
People work with bureaus to mitigate risk, reduce
paperwork and leverage speaker options. FIVE STAR Speakers and Trainers meets
this minimal standard, plus provides much, much more!
FIVE STAR helps organizations of all sizes and
backgrounds unite their teams to Believe
in their Message, Connect
with their Customers, Inspire
their teams, Celebrate
their success and Grow
their business.
For over 20 years and more than 17,000 events - We
have no agenda. Our client-centric approach is just a fancy way of saying that
your needs matter more than our needs. We don't have a roster of exclusive
speakers that we are obligated to book. You benefit because we only recommend
speakers who are a good match to your group, at your location for your budget.
We are one of the only speakers bureaus still offering live speaker showcases
instead of only relying on video. We do this because our customers tell us they
love seeing speakers live and knowing they will be a great match.
Our promise to you.
We know speakers. We know trainers. We know entertainers. We do the work so you
don't have to.
We have seen them live. We have read their books.
We've met them. We can tell you who has great presence, who will mingle before
and after with your audience. We know who can make you laugh, who can make you
cry, who can actually take the breath away from your entire audience. We can
tell you who is going to be the perfect fit for your group.
We have connections.
We know the up-and-coming stars , so you can book them
when they are a fraction of their future fees.
We are fast.
Once we complete our Needs Analysis with you, you will quickly receive a
customized web proposal for your specific event that will include bio, topics,
streaming video and availability.
Even after the sale, we have your back. One point of
contact facilitates all the pre-event work it takes to make your date a winner.
We find ways to add value with book signings, meet &
greets, autograph sessions We even make sure you will have an approved speaker
at your event even if they cancel last minute - we are here to work for YOU!
It doesn’t matter if you are looking for leadership
training, time management tools, a comedian, or anything in between – we are
excited to help you find the best speaker!
We work with more than 5,000 organizations throughout
the US and around the world -- Fortune 500, National Associations, Governmental
Agencies, Non-Profit organizations and educational institutions.
You deserve an expert on your side.
As a company, we spend over 600 hours each year previewing
live speakers. We spend over 400 hours per year training our sales team to
ensure we are experts in our field. We represent more than 18,000 speakers who
are both the rising stars and the established veterans of the industry.
We don't cost you money, but we do add value.
We bring tremendous negotiating leverage to the table for
our clients. If you were the speaker, who would you prefer to negotiate with;
someone who can book you one or two times, or a company that can book you 50
times per year for the next ten years? We can find the best speakers who live in
the area of the event to save you travel expenses. We provide an average of
$1000 worth of consulting to our clients in the proposal process, whether a
client does business with us or not. We make you look good by doing all the work
and 98% of the time our client does not pay a dime for our services.
Facts that matter.
99% of the time we can arrange a conference call with our
client and the speaker they’re interested in. 9 out of 10 times, we can get a
speaker’s promotional and demonstration materials to our clients within 24
hours, if needed. 99% of the time we can cooperate with all other bureaus at no
charge to our client, if a request is made for a speaker that is exclusive with
another bureau. 65% of all bureaus cannot co-broker with a vast majority of the
exclusive bureaus!
Our greatest value is often in keeping you from making
the wrong decision. Over 3,000,000 people have attended a session with a FIVE
STAR speaker. That’s 1 in every 100 people in the US who has been touched by
what we do.
What can we do for you?
