Speaking RequestsInterested in me speaking to your group, organisation or at an event? Great, then you're in the right place. I've spoken to a number of different brands, businesses and audiences at conferences and within higher education too.
Please read through the below, which should help answer any potential questions you might have and then by all means complete the simple 'speaker request form' at the bottom of the page to start the ball rolling. I'll get back to you as soon as I can for a quick chat about what you're looking for and we can get dates booked then. In the meantime, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat does your presentation include?
I specialise in creating bespoke presentations to suit your organisation, event or topic. If there's something specific you'd like me to present on, then please let me know in advance and I'll create a unique presentation for you. Recent talks have included:
New and innovative ways to boost in-depth engagement Why are you and your business on social media? Successfully driving change through social media Social media for small businesses Social media for Celebrants Cyber-bullying and Tik Tok in schools How far in advance should someone make a speaker request?
Ideally I'd prefer around 4 to 6 weeks notice in advance of the presentation date to make sure everything is sorted in advance and that your presentation is almost perfect for what you want me to deliver. However, we live in a fast-paced world with last-minute cancellations and drop-outs, so I'm always happy to fill in at short notice too. If the gig involves significant travel, then a couple of months notice is always useful to help plan the logistics as well. I work full-time in a school currently so I also like to give them as much notice as possible of any occasions that I'm likely to be away.
Are there any times of year that you're not going to be available to present or speak?
As a general rule, no there isn't. As I work full-time in a school, I get all the usual school holidays and half-terms off, so if anything I am more available at those times than I usually am. There may be occasions where I am away with my family, on holiday or just taking time out, but these can always be worked around accordingly. If you need me for a certain date, just let me know and I'll check my calendar.
Do you have a speaking fee?
Yes, I am usually paid to speak, but we can talk about what that looks like when we know what you need. I also usually only travel if expenses and accommodation costs are covered, but again these are flexible.
