Why book a celebrity
speaker? The answer is simple; big names
draw big crowds. If your goal is to attract attendees,
a celebrity speech may be better attended than
a speech by a lesser known speaker. The success
of an association convention is often determined
by the number of participants and a way to attract
participants is to have a famous speaker that
they will travel to hear, be it an actor or television
personality, business speaker, political speaker,
technology speaker, motivational speaker or sports
speaker. Celebrity authors frequently give keynote
speeches with book signings following their presentations.
Many celebrity speakers make
themselves available for general "Mix and
Mingles" or VIP "Meet and Greet"
sessions which often include autographs and photo
opportunities. The chance to meet and have their
picture taken with a celebrity is highly valued
by attendees. Additional opportunities for attendees
at corporate special events, college speeches
and association conventions to get to know the
celebrity keynoter can take the form of executive
breakfasts, luncheons or dinners, breakout sessions
and celebrity golf excursions. Sometimes before
a celebrity speech, a video will be shown to familiarise
attendees with the celebrity's most recent activities
and accomplishments.
