For keynote speakers and workshop facilitators
Your one sheet stops being a PDF that ages badly and becomes a page that answers a planner's three real questions before she writes to you. Topics, money, and whether October 14 is still free.
What the booking process actually costs you
You are not short of interest. You are short of the twenty minutes per inquiry that it takes to restate what you speak about, what you charge and what you have left in the fall.
The one sheet a planner forwards to her committee was exported eleven months ago. It lists a fee you raised in January and two dates you sold in the spring, so the first real conversation starts with a correction.
Roughly 4 hours a month spent re-exportingNobody wants to say the number first, so you trade pleasantries while a committee quietly compares you against a speaker whose range they already know. Half of those threads end with a polite pass.
1 in 3 leads lost to budget mismatchA soft hold from a regional association sits in your inbox, not your calendar. Two weeks later a corporate client asks for the same Thursday and you have to choose between an unpaid hold and a $12,000 keynote.
$12,000 keynote at risk per collisionSixty percent of event inquiries go quiet for a month because a venue changed or a budget froze. Without a reminder attached to the thread, those threads simply expire and the planner books someone who checked back.
28% of dormant leads recovered with one nudgeHow it works
Each keynote or workshop gets its own page: the promise, the audience it fits, the format options and the takeaways a program committee needs to justify the line item. Paste from the description you already send and tidy it in the editor.
Corporate keynote, association general session, half day workshop, virtual breakout. Publish a range for each, or keep a band private behind a request button when a client relationship needs the conversation first.
Two way sync with Google Calendar and Outlook marks travel days, blackout weeks and confirmed events. Planners see open, held and booked without seeing anything private about your schedule.
Every inquiry lands on a board with the requested date, the budget band and the topic she read. Reminders fire on the cadence you set, and you can see when the page was opened again by a second person at the same organization.
What is in the product
No general purpose page builder, no CRM you have to bend. Every screen exists because a speaker or a bureau coordinator asked for it by name.
Each topic carries a promise line, the audience fit, three takeaways and the formats you deliver it in, from a 45 minute keynote to a full day intensive. Planners can forward a single topic to a committee without sending your whole catalog.
Open, held and booked states sync from your working calendar in both directions, so a hold you place in the airport shows on the page within a minute. Travel buffers block the day before a coast to coast flight automatically.
Set separate ranges for corporate, association, nonprofit, virtual and workshop work, with travel and expense terms attached to each. A band can be public, visible only after a request, or hidden for named accounts you price by hand.
New, qualified, hold placed, contract sent, confirmed. Each card keeps the requested date, the audience size, the fee band discussed and the whole email thread, so a bureau coordinator can pick it up without a briefing call.
You see which topics a planner opened, how long she stayed on the fee band and whether a second person from the same organization came back. That tells you when a follow up is a nudge and when it is a waste of a stamp.
Headshots at print resolution, the short and long bio, AV requirements, intro script and W-9 sit in one downloadable kit tied to the same source of truth as your page. Update the bio once and the conference program gets the right version.
Outcomes our speakers report
Median time from first inquiry to a placed hold, down from 24 days on the same speakers' email only process. The date field and the fee band sit in the first message, so the qualifying round disappears.
More inquiries converted to contracts. Planners who see a range self select before writing, which means fewer polite conversations that were never going to reach your number.
Saved per month on admin: no re-exported PDF, no calendar cross checking, no retyping a topic description into a conference submission form. The kit and the page pull from one record.
Average increase in booked fee per event after publishing bands. Speakers who show a floor stop being asked to quote against last year's number, and the negotiation starts inside the range they set.
From the road
"I used to keep three versions of my one sheet: association rate, corporate rate, and the one I sent when I had no idea. Now there is one link and the bands do that work. A meeting planner in Ohio held my October 14 at eleven at night without either of us writing a sentence."
"The signal I did not know I needed is the second reader. When someone else at the same association opens my facilitation topic, that is the program chair, and that is when I call. Three of my five spring workshops came from calls I made because the page told me to."
"We run six speakers off one roster and used to lose whole afternoons reconciling holds in a spreadsheet. The pipeline board ended that. Our coordinator sees every requested date across the roster and I have not double booked anyone since March."
Pricing
A single corporate keynote pays for years of this. Pick the plan that matches how many people are on your roster, and change it whenever the season changes.
$19 per month
For the speaker who books her own calendar and wants the PDF problem gone.
$49 per month
For the full time speaker running twenty five to sixty dates a year.
$119 per month
For a bureau or a practice presenting several speakers on one roster.
Every plan is billed monthly in US dollars and can be cancelled at any time from your account settings. No setup fee, no annual lock in, and your data exports in full on the way out.
A season on the page
Speaking work runs on a long clock. Committees pick in the spring for a November general session, and the tool has to still be right eight months later.
A program chair collects five names and forwards links to a volunteer committee spread across four time zones. Your page loads on a phone in a parking lot, shows the topic she was told to look at first, and gives her a range she can carry into a budget meeting.
Average of 3.4 readers per inquiry link on shortlisted pages.
She places a hold on the date, which lands on your board and blocks the slot on your working calendar with a two week expiry you set. The kit gives her the intro script, the AV rider and the W-9 without another email, and the contract goes out with the fee band already filled in.
Holds expire on schedule, so a stale hold never costs you a paid Thursday.
The week of the event, the page becomes the logistics record: arrival time, room set, audience count, the contact who meets you at the loading dock. After the session you attach the testimonial and the audience numbers, and that topic page gets a little more persuasive for the next committee.
Post event notes feed the topic page and the reporting view.
Questions we get on the first call
Solo Speaker is $19 per month and covers one speaker profile, four topic pages, the availability calendar and the inquiry inbox. Speaker Pro is $49 per month and adds unlimited topics, fee bands by event type, custom domain hosting and the pipeline board with reminders. Speaker Team is $119 per month and covers up to eight speakers under one bureau roster with shared reporting. All three plans are billed monthly in US dollars and can be cancelled at any time.
Most speakers publish in a single working session of about two hours. You paste your existing bio and topic descriptions, mark the dates you are holding, then set your fee bands. The calendar and the inquiry form are already wired, so nothing needs a developer. If you want your speaker reel and past client list imported, our onboarding team does that from a link you send.
You decide, band by band. Many speakers publish a range for corporate keynotes, a second range for half day workshops, and keep association and nonprofit rates behind a request button. Planners tell us a visible band removes the awkward first email and filters out budgets that were never going to work. You can change a band at any time and the page updates instantly.
Your topics, fee bands, calendar and inquiries belong to you and are never sold, shared or used to train anything. Data is stored in US regions with encryption in transit and at rest, and access is limited to the account holders you invite. You can export every inquiry as a CSV file whenever you like. If you close your account we delete your workspace within thirty days.
Your one sheet can live on a subdomain such as speak.yourname.com or sit inside your existing site as an embedded page. Availability syncs both ways with Google Calendar and Outlook, so a hold you place on your phone shows as unavailable within a minute. Inquiries can be forwarded to HubSpot, Pipedrive or a plain email address, and confirmed bookings can push a deal record with the fee band attached. There is a documented webhook for anything else.
A PDF is a snapshot of the week you exported it. The version a planner forwards to her committee in March still lists last year's fee and dates you sold months ago. A live page keeps one link accurate forever, tells you who opened it and which topic they read twice, and lets a planner hold a date without a single email. Keep the PDF for the bureaus that insist on one, and let the link do the follow up.
The planner's side
The topic page names the audience it fits, the session length and what people walk out able to do. That is the language a program description needs, so she can lift it straight into the agenda.
A band, not a number, with travel terms attached. She learns in one glance whether to bring you to the budget conversation or keep looking, and you stop paying for that discovery with your own time.
The calendar shows open, held and booked for the next eighteen months. She can place a hold herself, which starts the clock on your side with the expiry rule you chose.
The kit answers the AV, headshot, bio and tax form questions before anyone asks. Planners rebook the speakers who made the paperwork disappear, and that is a repeatable advantage.
