We’re known for ‘brand talent’ – our speakers are tried-and-tested and many are very experienced, with years of expertise in their field and their craft. What is more, Social Alchemists’ stringent and comprehensive onboarding process ensures that we really know the talent we work with and can expertly match them with clients’ needs.
Speaker fees vary because no two events or speakers are the same. Factors such as a speaker’s experience, expertise, reputation, travel requirements, and the level of customisation needed to align their presentation with your event brief all play a role, and we will help you find the right fit for your event and budget.
If your speaker is no longer able to attend, you can rely on us to help you find the best way forward. Our first priority is finding another speaker who’s the right fit for your event, but if that is not possible, we will refund your booking.
