Stop Scrolling Through Databases and Hoping for the Best
Â
This is Speaker Matchmaking for Event Planners & Hosts
Â
Only Speakers That Sparkle Make It Through.
(And I don't mean metaphorically...I wear an actual tiara, so I know sparkle when I see it.)
What Speaker Matchmaking Actually Does
Â
Look, I'm not a speakers bureau with 500 people on a roster hoping you'll pick one and it works out.
I'm one person—Kathy—who personally connects event planners with speakers I'd bet my own reputation on. Because when you hire a speaker I recommend and they absolutely crush it? That reflects well on me. And when they bomb? That's on me, too.
So yeah, I'm picky.
No databases. No mass submissions. No "here are 47 options, good luck."
Just speakers who can think on their feet, engage real audiences, and make your event the thing people talk about for weeks afterward.
Who This Is For
- Corporate conferences that don't want boring
- Associations & professional organizations tired of the same recycled keynotes
- Leadership and entrepreneurship events where the audience actually cares
- Hosts who value quality, professionalism, and not having a speaker flake out two weeks before showtime
(If you're looking for someone to speak for "exposure" or a free lunch, this isn't the place. My speakers get paid well because they're worth it.)
Why Event Planners Choose Me
(Not a Faceless Bureau)
Â
I've been on your side of this. I've hosted five multi-day live events with 60+ people in the room. I've had to find speakers who wouldn't put my audience to sleep or ghost me three days before the event. I know what it's like when a speaker absolutely nails it—and when they... don't.
I vet based on what actually matters: Can they read a room? Do they adapt when the schedule runs late or the audience is half-asleep after lunch? Will they treat you like a human, not just a transaction?
My reputation is on the line with every match I make. If I recommend someone and they flake, bore your audience, or show up unprepared? That's on me. So I'm extremely careful about who gets my endorsement.
I treat every introduction like it's my own event. Because honestly? It kind of is.
What You Can Expect
(Besides Tiaras and Sparkle)
Â
I'll recommend speakers who actually fit your event. Not just someone who's available or wants to break into your industry. Someone who will genuinely deliver for your specific audience and goals.
These speakers are easy to work with:
- They show up prepared (but not so scripted they sound like robots)
- They're conversational, not canned
- They handle logistics, contracts, and timelines like grown-ups
- They adapt when things don't go exactly as planned (because let's be honest, things never go exactly as planned)
And if something's not a fit? I'll tell you. I'm not going to pitch you someone just to make a commission.
That's not how I operate.
Bottom Line
If I wouldn't confidently put this speaker on a stage I was hosting, where my own reputation was on the line, I won't recommend them to you.
My service is completely free to event planners and hosts. Zero cost. I get paid by the speakers, which means my only job is making sure you're thrilled with the match.
Want to talk about your event? I'm all ears. Probably wearing a tiara, definitely drinking coffee, and ready to help you find the perfect speaker.
