Speaking Engagement Guidelines
Subject Matter
We will gladly speak on topics in which we consider ourselves expert. Let's talk.
Our Availability
- We prefer to book events 45-60+ days out. This allows sufficient time to plan and produce the needed presentation materials, as well as adequate promotion time for your event.
- Booking dates with less than a 45 day window will incur an additional 20% charge to cover the costs associated with last-minute preparation.
Event Requirements
- You must have a minimum attendance of 10 registrants.
- We will provide a bio/introduction for Kathleen Mills, and require that it be used for her introduction.
- The venue will make available any audio/visual equipment required for our presentation. Typically this amounts to an overhead projector and a screen, as well as the PA system.
Event Materials/Permissions
- PMI will produce its own presentation and handout materials and is solely responsible for their cost.
- PMI will be allowed to record KM's segment(s) (audio/video). Any costs associated with this are to be borne by PMI.
- Permission is granted to the PMI organization to utilize that material in any reasonable manner on our website(s) and any and all other internet properties belonging to PMI.
Compensation/Expenses
- We require a digital copy of the events' sign-up list, including their names and email addresses, prior to the start of the event.
- Other than the PMI compensation agreed upon, and the potential costs mentioned in "Event Materials/Permissions" above, all costs associated with your event are to be borne by you unless otherwise negotiated.
Local Events
- Local events are defined as those being held within the DFW Metroplex proper. Our speaking fees for "local" events are billed on an hourly basis.
- 1-4 Hours: $350/hr

Non-Local Events
- Non-Local Events are those defined as being held outside of the DFW Metroplex proper. Our speaking fees for "local" events are billed on an hourly basis.
- 1-4 Hours: $275/hr plus travel expenses as applicable.
- 6 Hour Block (Full Day): $250/hr plus travel expenses as applicable.
Event Promotion: List/Community Access
- Happy to promote your event to my community as long as my involvement in your event is promoted to your group as well.
- I will not spam my community. Materials you provide us for distribution to our community must contain material of immediate value to our community.
- We reserve the right of approval/refusal of all material distributed to our community, much as we expect you to exercise the same privilege towards yours.
- You must promote KM in pre-event marketing materials using her image and provided bio, including any links in the bio.
- We must be allowed to promote our programs, materials, and podcast show in a non-commercial manner during the live event.
