How To Find Leads

At SpeakerDrive, our goal is to map the entire speaking landscape: conferences, corporate events, training engagements, and the decision-makers behind them all.

Your Two Main Opportunity Types:

  • Events - Conferences, summits, workshops, and corporate gatherings

  • Contacts - The actual people who book speakers (event planners, HR leaders, executives)

Smart Filtering Made Simple

Use the left sidebar filters to zero in on your ideal gigs:

  • Event Type - Conferences, summits, workshops, or whatever's your sweet spot

  • Fee Potential - AI-estimated fee ranges (yeah, we actually show what events typically pay)

  • Location - Search by region, state, or city

  • Organization Type - Target corporations, universities, associations, or government bodies

  • Keywords - Add your expertise area to find perfect-fit opportunities

Pro tip: Keep keywords simple—use "leadership" not "transformational leadership for emerging leaders in tech." One strong keyword beats a complicated phrase every time.

Mix and match filters to build your perfect opportunity list. The more specific you get, the more targeted your outreach becomes.


Ready to find your next gig? Start with broad filters, then narrow down to your sweet spot.
