A BOUTIQUE BUREAU, RUN ON RELATIONSHIPS
About
Oration Speakers is a boutique bureau, and we like it that way. Every client gets Rachel’s direct attention, not a handler three steps removed from the decision. We take the time to understand your event, your audience and what success looks like, then match you with a speaker who delivers on it, backed by workshops, prep calls and follow-up content that make the impact last well beyond the day itself.
It’s also about keeping your board happy and managing expectations. We bring the ideas, but we listen first to what you want your delegates to walk away with. With so many speaker options out there, the process can quickly become overwhelming — that’s where we come in.
At Oration Speakers, we recommend speakers with your budget and return on investment in mind from the start, not as an afterthought. Nearly 19 years in this industry means we can give you honest, direct advice: the right questions to ask, what to watch for, and how to avoid costly mistakes. Whether you’re organising a leadership retreat, company offsite, annual conference, or industry forum, we help you make informed decisions that lead to real results.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A KEYNOTE SPEAKER?
We can usually tell you quickly whether a speaker is right for your event and just as importantly, when they’re not. Sometimes it takes an outside, neutral view to see that clearly.
As speaker agents, we’ve worked with the same speakers many times, so we know what works for them and what doesn’t. That’s the kind of insight you can’t get on your own. We match speakers against your specific requirements, because every event is different and deserves a speaker chosen for it….not a generic list.
SO WHY WORK WITH ORATION SPEAKERS?
Planning an event comes with enough moving parts so finding the right speaker shouldn’t be another challenge on your list. At Oration Speakers and with our many years of experience, we help you take the pressure off by connecting you with credible, engaging, and thoroughly vetted speakers who align perfectly with your event’s goals.
Access to a vetted, diverse talent pool.
Our roster includes some of the most compelling keynote speakers around, from globally recognised thought leaders to emerging voices in niche sectors. Every speaker we work with meets high professional standards. That means you’ll never waste time wading through generic pitches. Instead, you’ll be matched with speakers who understand your audience and strengthen your message.
Save time and skip the stress and hassle.
Leave the logistics to us.
We handle the behind-the-scenes details such as travel, accommodation, tech requirements and on-site support, so you can focus on running your event. We also provide legally sound booking contracts to keep everything secure and professional.
Tailored to your event goals.
We don’t just send you a list, we actually listen. Our team offers personalised recommendations based on your objectives, audience, and brand values. We make sure the speaker fits your vision and delivers real impact.
Boost visibility with Speaker Influence.
A well-known speaker can do more than inspire on stage, they can amplify your event’s reach. We help you position your headline speaker as a promotional asset, increasing visibility, audience engagement, and ticket sales.
We’ve got backup plans.
Unexpected speaker cancellations can cause major stress. With Oration Speakers, you’ve got a safety net. Our network gives you access to backup options and solid contingency planning, so your event stays on track, no matter what.
