Frequently Asked Questions

  1. ​How do I schedule Teresa Allen, Customer Service Speaker for my meeting?

    Teresa is anxious to talk with you and learn more about your meeting objectives. Fill out the contact form on our Contact Us page and Teresa will call you as soon as possible to confirm date availability and discuss your event.  She is happy to schedule a follow-up call with your management or planning committee prior to making your decision.

  2. What are your speaking fees?
    Teresa will be happy to quote a fee for your engagement after she has spoken with you.  Please note that she offers discounts for non-profits, associations and certain geographic locations as well as for small groups.

  3. Can you present a keynote and a breakout session at the same meeting?
    Absolutely!  Teresa only charges a small additional fee for added programs. Because Teresa has a training background, she is well equipped to delve deep into subject matter in a breakout session or training which complements your keynote presentation.

  4. How am I charged for expenses? Do you require a deposit?
    A flat expense fee will be on your contract so you have no 'surprise' charges after your event!  This fee will be based on coach airfare*, ground transportation, meals and incidentals and 2 nights at a business class hotel.  If you are planning a conference and have negotiated discounted room rates, be sure to let Teresa know as she will let you direct bill those nights to the conference and will lower your expense fee accordingly. Your deposit will be 50% of your program fee plus any anticipated airfare.  The balance of the fee is due on the date of your program. *business class airfare is required for events outside of the continental U.S.

  5. How far in advance do I need to book my program?
    When you have decided that Teresa is the perfect speaker for your event, you will want to book your date as soon as possible to avoid disappointment over a date that is no longer available.  Once Teresa has received your deposit and signed contract, your date is considered firm.

  6. Do you use PowerPoint?
    Teresa does use PowerPoint, but mainly as a backdrop to her presentation.  You will NOT have a presentation with 5 bullet points per screen.  That would bore any audience!  Teresa's presentations are a wonderful mixture of stories, important content, and audience involvement.  A fun, memorable, and down-to-earth presentation style has been her trademark and has captivated audiences for over 20 years!

  7. How do you handle your handouts?
    Teresa will provide you with a pdf of her handout master.  You as the client will make copies and can thus easily handle any changes in registration at the last minute.

  8. May I videotape your presentation?
    Please ask Teresa re your specific need and planned use.  A separate agreement is required for any audio or video recording of Teresa's presentation.

  9. Do you give virtual presentations?
    Teresa is able to give virtual presentations either as your main presentation or as a follow up for employees or conference attendees.

  10. Does Teresa provide any help with marketing my event?
    Teresa is happy to provide you with a short MP3 video describing her upcoming session at your event. She is also able to help you produce a flyer if needed to promote your conference.
