File: ArrangingATalk [[[>50 !! Here's what we need to do: First: * Choose a time and date * Choose a topic * JugglingTalk * Other MathematicsTalk * Agree a total for the invoice; * Decide on and book a venue Later: * Sketch arrangements for travel, meals and accommodation; * Estimate attendance * Finalise travel, meals, and if necessary, accommodation * Generate invoice * Arrange where, when, and who will meet and escort me ]]] I get so many requests for talks, this is where I've collected the advice I give. In short, I would be delighted to come and speak for you. What follows will seem endless, but I ask that you read it carefully. It has evolved over several years, and contains the experience I've gained in that time. It should help us to organise a successful visit. I actively try to accept every invitation to speak. That's not always possible, but I like to think that if it's possible, I'll do it. This page is an attempt to make the process of organising a talk as efficient and painless as possible, the better to achieve that goal. Reading it carefully is your part, so we can work together towards a successful visit. In order to stream-line the process of organising talks I have created, and continue to enhance, a check-list to assist with the arrangements. In 2019 I gave over 150 talks - you can imagine how many emails that entailed - and I'm sure you can appreciate that efficiency is essential. More details follow on ArrangingATalkPartII - there I expand on each of these so you can provide the information I need to come and speak for you. You don't need all of it at once! In fact, if you already have a date in mind you can complete the TalkRequestForm now - otherwise have a look at ArrangingATalkPartII. I look forward to hearing from you! ---- When you think about how much speakers need to charge, here's some reading: * http://www.thenerdary.net/post/84544230452/a-formula-for-speaking-fees * http://seb.ly/2014/05/how-to-ask-to-get-paid-to-speak/ My policies on fees and expenses: * https://www.solipsys.co.uk/new/JugglingTalkRequirements.html#toc_name011 ----
