A great way to land more speaking gigs is through event planners, and here to tell us how to work with event planners is Roy Cevallos.

Roy is an event planner and program manager for the Northwest Public Power Association. He works with a lot of speakers so we'll talk about what he looks for in new and existing speakers for his events, plus what things look like in this new, strange virtual world of speaking.
