Frequently Asked Questions
Questions, answered plainly.
What SpeakerPacket is, what planners see, what it costs to stay or to leave, and why no speaker here is ever ranked or graded. The short version of everything else on this site.
Is this for me?
If you speak for a living, or you are building toward that, yes. SpeakerPacket is the verified record of a speaker\u2019s career: your gigs, your reviews, your fee history, your footage, all in one place, with your engagements confirmed against real sources. Planners check it before they book. It is built for professional keynote speakers, trainers, and facilitators, and for the bureaus, agencies, and planners who hire them.
What do planners see?
They see a verified history report, the CARFAX of speaking. Your past engagements, verified reviews from real clients, your speaking footage, your credentials, and your contact path. What they do not see is guesswork. Every engagement on your packet has been checked, so the planner can book with confidence instead of crossing their fingers.
Can I cancel?
Any time. No contracts, no cancellation fees, no hard feelings. Your verified history stays on record even after you cancel; your packet stays published until the end of the paid period. If you come back later, you rejoin at the then-current new-member price.
What happens to my price if I cancel and come back?
Your founding rate is tied to an active membership. If you cancel and return later, you come back at the price available to new members at that time. That is why we say your price never rises while you stay active: the lock is yours to keep.
What happens if my card fails?
Life happens. We will send you dunning emails urging you to update your card to keep your founding rate, because we want you to keep it. Your rate is protected while you act: update your payment method and everything stays exactly as it was. If the membership lapses fully, the founding rate goes with it, and rejoining means the then-current new-member price.
Why am I not ranked or graded?
Because rankings can be bought, and ours never will be. SpeakerPacket authenticates your record; it does not score you against other speakers. There is no leaderboard to climb, no rank to buy, and no placement for sale, ever. What a planner sees instead is your real record: your verified engagements, the years they cover, and the clients and bureaus who confirmed them. A deep record speaks for itself, and it speaks louder than any badge we could sell you. Your job is to build the record. Our job is to make sure everyone can trust it.
Is this a bureau?
No. We are verified packet infrastructure, not a bureau. Bureaus, agencies, and planners use the platform free: speakers are our customers, the booking side is our network. We take zero booking commission, always. We do not broker gigs, negotiate fees, or take a cut of anything. Our job is to make sure the best speakers can prove who they are, so the people who hire them can tell who\u2019s who.
Who verifies my packet?
Our verification team checks your engagements against real sources: client confirmations, event records, published listings, and direct outreach where needed. The standard is simple. If a planner can trust it, it goes on the packet. If it cannot be verified, it stays on the record as listed, never as verified. That is the whole point: a record the industry can believe.
