WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“Yesterday as I closed the conference, I offered, in my best Amanda Gore-esque way, that ‘clearly the best thing to happen to me since Sunday night’ was meeting all of you Hard Rockers”; to which the reply was a deafening ‘zoot, zoot, zoot’ and several ‘ta dahs.’ You did it, Amanda! We had an aggressive schedule and objectives. You set a tone that offered that, by being positive and caring, we can accomplish whatever we set our minds to. The plans are well on their way to completion. I would be completely remiss if I did not share with you that you struck a chord with the entire group. And as you know, it was a very skeptical group.”

"A truly inspiring message Andrew, I wanted to send a short note to again thank you for coming to speak with our group of new financial advisors. The feedback from the group on your presentation was excellent. What you have accomplished in your climbing career and your most recent experience in climbing Mount Everest is a truly inspiring message. Your presentation really resonated with our group not only in reinforcing what it takes to succeed, but in the importance of remaining true to your principles to achieve the ultimate success. While we can't fully appreciate what you went through, your powerful story aided by the realism of your slides and video gave us some strong insights, which will have a lasting impact. It was a privilege to have met you."Murray Carswell - Vice President, Resource Centres Western Region Great West Life

F.A.Q.
What makes a motivational speaker different from a regular keynote speaker?
A motivational speaker is there to shift how the room feels. They share a real story, build energy, and leave people believing they can handle what’s in front of them. A standard keynote often leans on strategy or hard numbers instead. Plenty of our motivational speakers do both, wrapping a practical takeaway inside a story that sticks. If your goal is to lift a team before a big push, this is usually the group you want.
What kind of events suit a motivational speaker best?
They work well anywhere people need a reset or a lift. Think sales kickoffs, annual meetings, staff appreciation days, conferences after a hard year, and leadership retreats. A talk near the start of your agenda sets the tone for everything after it. One near the close sends people home on a high. We can help you pick the right spot based on what you want your audience to feel and do next.
How long does a motivational keynote usually run?
Most sit between 45 and 60 minutes. That’s long enough to tell a full story and land a few clear points, and short enough to keep the energy up. Some speakers offer a 30-minute version for packed schedules, or a longer format with a workshop or a question-and-answer session after the talk. Tell us your timing, and we’ll match you with someone who fits it.
Can a motivational speaker tie their message to our company?
Yes, and the good ones want to. Before the event they’ll ask about your team, your goals, and the challenges you’re working through. Many will review your theme or talk with a few of your leaders so their examples feel personal to the room. The more background you share while planning, the more the talk feels built for your people rather than pulled off a shelf.
$7500 – $35000, there are exceptions with speakers in the $3500 and up range as well
How much does it cost to book a motivational speaker?
Fees usually run from about $7500 to $35,000, depending on the speaker’s profile, how in demand they are, and how much prep the talk needs. Local speakers cost less since there’s no travel or hotel to cover, and virtual talks often come in cheaper than in-person ones. We’re upfront about pricing from the first call, so you can pick someone who fits your budget and still connects with your audience.
