Frequently Asked Questions
What is the step-by-step process for booking a keynote speaker?
The first step is to share the key details of your event: goals, preferred topics, audience type, and budget range. Within 24 hours, we will send you a curated shortlist and arrange an alignment call.
Once expectations are set and the speaker is selected, we prepare a tailored proposal and take care of everything end-to-end: fee negotiation, contracts, briefing calls, logistics, and full coordination until the event is complete. After the event, we provide follow-up support to ensure everything has met your expectations.
The full process typically takes 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the speaker’s schedule and the event’s complexity.
How much does it cost to book a keynote speaker?
Booking fees vary widely depending on the speaker’s profile, demand, and type of participation.
For reference, in the Middle East, many corporate speakers work within standard industry ranges, typically starting at USD $10,000. In contrast, high-profile global leaders and celebrity speakers may charge premium rates, starting at USD $25,000 and increasing based on profile and the event’s scope.
Nevertheless, our team will always provide transparent guidance and help you identify the best options for your goals and budget.
What if I’m unsure about the type of speaker I need?
Not knowing the exact speaker is not a problem. We will guide you based on your event’s objectives, the message you want to reinforce, and the audience you aim to inspire.
Thanks to our unique combination of strategic consulting and speaker agency services –as well as our global network of partners– we can connect you not only with our own roster of speakers, but also with exclusive profiles from other bureaus and renowned industry leaders.
Does Thinking Heads take care of logistics and communication with the speaker?
Yes. We coordinate the entire speaking engagement process: contracts, content briefings, travel arrangements, accommodation, and scheduling.
We also set up alignment calls between the client and the speaker to ensure a seamless and efficient process for both sides.
How far in advance should I book a keynote speaker?
We recommend booking any keynote speaker 3 to 6 months in advance. However, Thinking Heads specializes in handling last-minute requests with agility.
What types of events and speaking formats do speakers participate in?
Our speakers are usually adaptable to various formats managed by Thinking Heads:
– Keynotes: Main stage presentations (45-60 min).
– Fireside Chats: Dynamic, informal on-stage interviews.
– Panels: Expert roundtable discussions.
– Workshops: Executive sessions or private meetings.
– Virtual Events: High-quality webinars and online conferences.
Your audience deserves an inspiring voice.
