I love Free Speakers in Chicago. They offer topic experts across various topics for free, hence the name. I use them when I'm in need of a speaker to provide an engaging lecture at the library I work at. They'd also be great as guest speakers at a Chamber of Commerce meeting, service organization meeting, HOA meeting, etc. Give 'em a try.

Thank you! Our Bank of America Retiree Group just had the pleasure of having Patrick Connell speak at our quarterly luncheon in Phoenix. Patrick spoke on September 11 about the Sanctity of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. What a perfect topic for our Patriots Day.
I’m so glad I found your website and will return again to find other speakers for our future meetings.

I am a registered speaker for HECM's (reverse mortgages) and it's been a really good experience for about a year now. I have been surprised at some of the exposure it's given me to organizations I would never have approached or thought of on my own. I have had probably just over 5-6 requests the past 9 months, and none have been a waste of time. The requests have allowed me to speak and educate people I never would have otherwise. I highly recommend registering if you are a professional wanting to educate and become resource in your local market.

Over the past few years, the Free Speakers organization referred several companies to me for presentations on various HR topics. I conducted some in person and a couple via the internet. Overall, I found the audiences to be interested and receptive.

I had to discontinue my connection with Free Speakers due only to my business workload and personal schedule.

Using Free Speakers is a good way to build your business relationships and contacts. I highly recommend Free Speakers!

This service was instrumental in getting my public speaking career started. I got many opportunities to do free talks and hone my skills, and now I am turning Pro!

This is a great way to advertise yourself as a speaker in your area and get connected with event planners. I highly recommend the Free Speakers service.

This is a well-run, finely tuned organization that will provide speakers opportunities to target groups they want to work with. The website is easy to use and update. Especially recommended for novice speakers wanting to gain experience.

I joined Free Speakers in 2018, I was given the opportunity to speak to several amazing groups of people, several were repeats. The organization is a great place to connect with like positive minded people.

We had Ben Dooley present two of his courses during our leadership retreat virtually, and it was fun and interactive. Ben gave the team a lot of useful tips for self development and growth, and we talked about leadership cornerstones. Very thankful to the Freespeakers organization for allowing small businesses like ours access to such amazing speakers to help our teams. Highly recommend!!

I'm delighted to comment on my 10± year relationship with Freespeakers.org. Years ago as a nonprofit event organizer constantly in search of speakers willing to present in gratis; Freespeakers.org provided an array of great speakers with relevant and interesting topics that added so much to the success of our organization's member events. Later, as a consultant seeking new connections and opportunities to share my knowledge and experience to help others I found a steady flow of opportunities to give back to the community.

Both experiences over the years with Freespeakers.org have been professionally rewarding in numerous ways. In planning meetings and events, they offer an endless source of great speakers to organizations. As a speaker, I've been afforded an opportunity to sharpen my skills continually and contribute beneficial service to groups as I seek to give back!

In my opinion, Freespeakers.org has created the ultimate WIN-WIN situation for all!

Quickly received engagements from some great organizations. Great resource and service.

This is a great organization that allows you to deliver your speeches to organizations that are not only looking for content, but are appreciative of your time and efforts. It is solid preparation for more speaking opportunities and for gaining more exposure.

Great value and support with multiple high value speaking requests from National Associations.

Great resource! As a ghostwriter, I always recommend Free Speakers to authors eager to share their wisdom and knowledge. I've found it to be a great resource to connect to audiences like rotary clubs, professional organizations, libraries, writers groups, and others interested in finding speakers on their topics. It can definitely help build your speaking portfolio. I've gotten several speaking engagements annually. And knowing its a nonprofit, it's win-win, well worth the small annual fee.

Mike Shereck was a great speaker for our Kiwanis group. He made sure that our members were engaged, listened to, and heard. I would highly recommend him. I am looking forward to having two other Free Speakers at upcoming events!

Lots of requests and opportunities from having a profile on Free Speakers. Great way to get some leads!

Excellent platform! Excellent management! And great opportunities. I encourage it for all aspiring speakers.

As an Adult Services & Programming Librarian at the Lemont Public Library, I'm always looking for informed and reliable speakers to present on various topics. We've booked various speakers throughout the years and have yet to be disappointed. A great and free service!

I have used Free Speech Speakers Bureau several times for our Chicago-area Mensa group's monthly gathering. Each may have been free, but each has been as professional as those we've hired who had a high fee. Every one of them has arrived on time, been fully prepared, given a fascinating presentation, and been very personable in chatting with interested people who stuck around after the "official" part of the night's duties. They're so good that it makes me feel guilty they are doing it for free!

This is a great service and I really enjoy all the opportunities that it provides for organizations to get good speakers to come in and share their expertise.
