What is SpeakerDrive?
SpeakerDrive is a specialized prospecting platform for professional speakers and experts. We bring together thousands of speaking opportunities and decision-maker contacts in one place.
Our AI-powered tools help you craft authentic outreach that actually gets responses—because nobody likes pushy sales pitches.
Your Outreach Philosophy: Relationships First
Here's the thing: Your first message has one simple job—start a conversation.
Forget the long bio dump. Decision-makers are busy people. They don't need your entire speaking history in that first email—they just need to know you "get" what they're dealing with.
So keep it:
Short but thoughtful - Drop in something specific about their event or company
Naturally relevant - Let your expertise shine through without the laundry list
Actually conversational - Write like you're reaching out to a colleague, not pitching from a stage
Trust me—once they hit reply, they'll check out your website and credentials on their own. The conversation always comes first.
Who You're Contacting
The People Who Can Actually Book You:
Event planners juggling major conferences all year long
HR/Training leaders building ongoing development programs
C-suite executives with real keynote budgets
Program managers running department initiatives
Executive assistants (seriously, they have way more influence than you think)
Ready to get started? Your next great gig is just one real conversation away.
