Speaker marketing and representation
Speakers Want Bookings. They Look for a Manager. Then What?
That depends on what they expect the manager to do.
There's a difference between getting booked for a keynote and building a successful speaking business. And signing with an agency doesn't mean the bookings suddenly start rolling in.
We wish it worked that way. We'd have a much easier job.
SEE AGENCY HAS BEEN REPRESENTING KEYNOTE SPEAKERS SINCE 2009
17 YEARS. THOUSANDS OF EVENTS. MEASURED GROWTH.
We've helped speakers go from a handful of bookings to substantial six- and seven-figure speaking businesses.
Our experience and historical data from dozens of speakers back that up.
217% Average Booking Growth in Year Two
Our historical speaker development analysis documented an average 217% increase in second-year bookings.
277% Growth in Annual Bookings Over Five Years
In one historical sample, four See Agency speakers collectively grew from approximately 26 annual bookings in their first year to 98 in their fifth.
Growth Isn't Always a Straight Line.
Some years are better than others. Sometimes the work we're doing today doesn't pay off until a year or two down the road.
That's why we measure progress over years, not just bookings from one quarter to the next.
REPRESENTATION IS A PARTNERSHIP.
Being a great speaker doesn't guarantee you'll get booked. I wish it did.
There's a lot of work that goes into marketing a speaker, much of it long before an inquiry ever comes in.
That's the work we do at See Agency.
And we've gotten pretty good at it.
We want to work with speakers who take that work as seriously as we do.
