No matter the subject of interest, you're sure to find an author to match your needs to give a great speech and possibly a book signing.

An insightful and articulate speaker at a corporate event can help individuals, groups, and companies to achieve their potential through a dynamic and insightful speech, seminar or consulting session. Authors/Speakers on GigSalad have written Children's Books, have been Bestselling Authors of Local Interest, Fiction, Religious, Political, Health and/or Nonfiction Titles.

When booking an Author to speak at your event, be sure you have your event details (date, time, location, topic, etc.) and budget lined up before you contact the Author. Next up, you should book well in advance. Some speakers are booked months or years in advance. However, in some situations you might be able to book less than 60 days in advance. Lastly, pay attention to detail in the contract. What are the traveling expenses? If the traveling expenses are too expensive, consider partnering with another organization to host the same speaker during the same time frame.
