Frequently Asked Questions
What services do you offer?Eight presentations are described on the Home Page. Custom talks can also be developed. For example, I was asked to speak at a convention of highway construction firms. I developed a talk on prehistoric trails, many of which were recognized as current highways.
How do I get started?Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call—we’ll discuss your project details and answer any questions along the way.
What do you charge?The fee for a talk is flexible, based on your organization’s budget. Talks generally start at $175 but can go to $250 based on length and travel distance from Scottsdale.
How long are your talks?Generally, the talks are 45 minutes to allow about 15 minutes for questions. Some talks can go for 60 minutes. Talks can be tailored to your time specifics.
Can you provide PR material?Yes. I can provide a bio and headshot, as well as a suggested introduction. You are welcome to distribute the talk flyer or modify it as needed.
What equipment do you need?I use PowerPoint for all talks. You will need to provide a screen and projector, or a flat panel screen. Talks are on my laptop but also on a USB drive if that fits better with your equipment.
Do you bring your books for sale?Several of the talks are based on the book shown in the talk overview. I generally do not bring books for sale, however, if that is desired, a small quantity can be brought for cash sales.
