Can I get additional external marketing services? YES. Our team offers marketing and administrative services to get you greater exposure, improved perception and better skills to get you booked more often and at a higher rate.

Why are you offering this for free? As a web designer at http://www.clicktostart.com my niche is coaches, consultants trainers and entertainers as well as dynamic sites for associations and organizations. Many of my clients need help booking gigs. I started researching the requirements event organizers have for choosing a speaker and discovered that the main issue they have is FINDING local speakers. By providing an inclusive database of local speakers, their rates and offerings I become more valuable to those event organizers - and of course more valuable to my clients.

So what is the catch? No catch, I just anticipate that, if you are in my niche market, you will want to deal with someone with expertise in marketing you. I offer a very attractive web design package for coaches and consultants you can see details here.
