The job of a speaker bio is to succinct give the audience reason to be excited for what this speaker has to say. Ideally, it will be less than 100 words. A CV cannot be a speaker bio because it contains too much information. Therefore, this bio requires each word to be optimally selected in a laborious and intellectually stimulating process.
The “cutting” part is only half of the process. “The Devil is in the Details” as it is often said. Titles change, companies acquire other companies, subs in the bio don’t get spelled right and can only be noticed by the person you may not want to offend the most: the speaker. Each and every single fact in the bio emanates from a source.
Each bios must be based on an actual individual of which there are a finite number, making invention a steep project cost. Interpolating a named executive almost demands that the named interviewee poses an award that was given, employment at a former company, and a book that one has authored, none of which may be true. The researcher constructs the narrative from the speaker’s bio, the company webpage, and the speaker’s self-generated sign off. The researcher notes areas of the narrative that cannot be verified, rather than providing alternative details.
Automatically generated bios are obviously fake. Ask for a bio of some arbitrary director and you will get a lecture that never happened, a fake award, or a fake degree. The speaker will see the fake program, it will already be printed, and the apology will be on you.
Research begins with what the presenter sends and most of the time ends there. The writer peruses the CV, company bio, a recent talk or interview, and any jacket copy for the book, then identifies two or three points that help understand why this person is addressing this subject at your conference.
People tend to buy the entire roster as a set rather than purchasing bios individually. This highlights a consistent style across the set. Send through the list, whatever document(s) each speaker has supplied, and the exact lengths you need. Pricing is charged per total word count. If you have twelve bios at 150 words, this is a total of 1,800 words = $180 writing plus the 1% fee.
One rate, whatever the format: $10 per 100 words. You are paying for the writer’s time and judgement, so the price scales with the words rather than with a package tier.
| Typical speaker biography | Words | Writing | Fee (1%) | You pay |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single speaker bio | 150 | $15 | $0.15 | $15.15 |
| Panel set of four | 500 | $50 | $0.50 | $50.50 |
| Full roster of twelve | 1,500 | $150 | $1.50 | $151.50 |

Every draft goes through an editor, then through several AI detectors and a plagiarism check. Anything that does not come back clean is revised or reassigned. You get the reports with the delivery email.
What the piece is for, who reads it, roughly how long it should be, and anything it must include or avoid. Links to your existing material help. If you are unsure, send what you have and the writer will come back with questions.
Either works. Most of the time clients will forward the questions on to the speakers themselves as the speakers respond quicker to the organizer than to a random person. If you would prefer we handle it for you, send us the email address for each speaker and we will keep it short with a single round of questions and a single approval.
Yes, when you send an example. Some speakers write in first person, so they’d prefer that it stayed that way. We keep that voice and tone and simply address length, facts, and places that contradict the rest of your speech.

Reviews from completed, paid orders in this category.
The first brief we received was too general. The writer noted this rather than trying to understand it himself. We did a twenty-minute call. Obviously frustrating that it was needed, still useful that this happened, as the finalized procedures reflect the way the warehouse operates. This includes the different procedures the night shift performs.
I applied to 11 jobs with my own application and received 0 feedback. I ordered 3 custom applications, and the third received a callback. The job ad mentioned a comfort level with ambiguity, and the writer focused the paragraph on a project of mine that was all about ambiguity.
I included around 900 words of my custom copy as a foundation. In return, I received back around 500 words and the description was more drawn out. The section describing pricing, which previously was rather vague, was replaced with a single, firm sentence. We shipped this variation the same week. The least interesting line on the invoice is undoubtedly the one percent add-on.
We do not ask you to take the no-AI promise on trust. Each draft is run through these platforms and the reports are attached to your delivery email.
