How are expenses handled?

Everything is included in the fee. There is no additional charge for airfare, mileage, tolls, car rental, meals, etc.

Is there a way for me to save on your fee?

The cost per program is lower when you engage me to present more than one program on the same day. You might consider requesting sponsorship as a way of reducing expenses for your meeting.

Do you provide learning materials or handouts?

Yes, a learning guide is prepared to best meet the needs of your group. The guide varies from two to thirty two pages in length, depending on the length of the program and the type of event. You will receive a master copy of the guide for duplication. There is no charge for the master.

Can we video tape or audio tape your presentation?

Video taping and/or audio taping is permissible, provided that a master copy is sent to me within two weeks of the presentation in the same format or better quality than the original. Both video taping and audio taping must be for internal use only, and not sold.

What are your AV and set-up requirements?

Projector table with AC power (unless an LCD projector will be provided).

Screen (size depends on audience size and seating choices, i.e., theatre, classroom, etc.):

6' wide for small audiences (10 or less)
8' wide for audiences of 11-60 so all can see from the back of the room
10' wide for audiences of 61-199
12' wide or larger for audiences above 200

Please note: Please make sure the room you reserve has a tall enough ceiling so that the people in the back of the room can easily see the screen without having to look over or through people's heads.

Sound system for audience sizes over 30: internal house or external PA system adequate for room/audience size with low impedance mic input jack for my wireless lapel mic.
A six to eight foot skirted table at the front of the room, stage right. I will speak from the table rather than a lectern.
A medium sized box (or 2 milk crates placed side by side) placed on the above mentioned table with a table cloth covering it. This is where my laptop and mouse pad will be placed.
A live power cord brought to the side of the above mentioned table.
I bring my own laptop computer, projector, and lapel mic with a low impedance mic cord.

Suggested room set-up:

Theatre style can put more people in a room, however, participants are most comfortable when they are seated at tables. Classroom style is an excellent choice for this type of training.

Can you send a biography and introduction?

Yes. I will email an introduction printed in large font for easy reading. You will receive this in advance of the event and I will bring an additional copy with me to the event.

What is the next step to have you speak for our organization?
