Event planners need speakers to present specific messages, often ones that solve problems while also relating to the audience. Janell Folkerts, owner of Allur Talent Agency, knows this. With 20 years of working with the business community, she’s an expert at finding the perfect speaker for any event.
Hiring a keynote speaker is the best way to bring authenticity to your event and create a memorable experience.
“A lot of other speaker agencies wait for people to come to them,” Folkerts said. “I am active in promoting my speakers. On the speaker side, when someone is interested in working with me, I can help them with personal branding and with producing a book to go with the speaking engagements.”
Those who want to book a speaker will deal with one person: Folkerts. She handles the entire business, from finding that perfect speaker within a niche to negotiating with speakers and planners. And she can work within a variety of budgets.
“Helping clients find the right speaker to meet their objectives and help to connect with the right audience is my passion,” she said.
