You are about to make a big decision. You have to decide who is the speaker, the leader, for your people, for a given period of time at your important meeting. This person has to be professional, competent, fun, reachable and be just the ideal person for that slot.

Here is what you will get when you hire Terry Brock:

• You get a professional speaker and businessperson.
• You get me listening to your needs. I want to know what issues you want to address. I'll be flexible in handing your specific needs. I'll also be able to adjust as those needs change with the real world. Yes, I live in the real world just like you!
• You get me listening to the needs your organization has. Sometimes sticky and thorny issues comes up. I'm aware of these from my years in the business. I'll handle it all for you professionally and in a way that will make you glad and relived that you hired me.
• You get me arranging for all the important, but obscure logistics for the event. These are the things that can make or break an event. I know to arrive early. I know to get plenty of "cushion" with flights and travel. I know about flight delays, weather delays, etc. This is just another headache you won't have when you work with me.
• As part of my regular fee, I provide an educational and practical website for my clients. This regularly increases convention attendance -- we get lots of people signing up for the convention just because of what they hear (using audio) and see (using video) on the website. It also provides enormous value in learning practical things your members can use in their practice. They want to come to the meeting and find out what it is all about. Ask for details and I'll share with you some events where I have permission to show what has been done.

• You get a professional speaker and businessperson.
• You deserve promptness and that is what you get from me I'll be there at the time we agree. It goes without saying that I'll be there in a professional way and you won't be embarrassed.
• You get dependability. When I say I'll do something, you can take it to the bank.
• You get cordiality and person who is reachable when you hire me. I treat everyone I encounter with dignity and honor. This includes your members and the hotel staff. I believe everyone is entitled to this dignity and honor no matter who they are. I don't like speakers who are one person on the platform and completely unprofessional off the platform. With me, you get professionalism and courtesy throughout our experience together.
• You get me listening to and helping your people with their questions and concerns. They have questions and I want to help them. Through personal contact, phone or e-mail I'll be there for them. This is part of their benefit from attending your meeting.
• You'll get a fun, entertaining, and highly-informative session that people will enjoy and remember long after the event.
• As part of my regular fee, I will interview and video some of your key people to ask what they are doing. You select key people that you know would be appropriate (I'll work with you on this). Then I'll use video clips, like a CNN-type presentation, during my program to dazzle the audience and to drive home real specific points on how to succeed in today's world. This will NOT be a canned presentation! I guarantee you that! My background is in radio, TV and newspaper. I'm currently a syndicated columnist so I interview lots of people. These interviews will be done professionally and in an entertaining and informative way.

• You get a professional speaker and businessperson.
• You and your people will receive an update to the website with comments that are helpful and educational for the entire group. They'll be able to access this at no charge to them as a bonus for being a member of your organization and having attended the session.
• You can relax knowing there will be no surprises on the expenses. This will be a relief. I quote a solid, one-price fee for all travel expenses. You bill room, tax and resort fees (if any) to a master account and I cover everything else as part of the quoted travel fee. This way there are no surprises and you don't have to worry about first-class vs. coach, expensive meals, etc. etc. Again, you will have professional care and not have any of the problems that other meeting planners have with speakers.

In sum, you're getting not just a speaker for a given time slot at your meeting. You are getting me. I'm committed to helping you sparkle and shine during the meeting. You'll have your hands full with enough other details and you don't need to worry about a Prima Donna speaker.

This is my business. I've been doing it since 1983 and have seen all kinds of groups, in various locations and venues around the world. I've experienced just about any problem that you, as a meeting planner, can encounter. With me there, you can relax, do your job and know that I'll do mine so that your people have a genuine "WOW!" experience.

We will be partners on this event. I look forward to cementing our partnership for your meeting. Call me at 407-363-0505.
