Soccer Speakers: Need a Motivational Speaker?
I came across this site, All American Speakers, which is a search directory for public speakers and talent, mostly former professional athletes, comedians, and actors who do motivational speaking. I was somewhat surprised to see some of the soccer speakers they had listed, and although some of their information was outdated, it was interesting to see their speaking rates.
To hear wisdom from Bruce Arena and Tony DiCicco, the fees range from $20,001 to $30,000. As a comparison, you could get Anna Kornakova for $50,001 or more, but this of course depends upon the audience you're trying to motivate. If you get a bigger budget, you could get Jerry Seinfeld, Lance Armstrong, Robin Williams, Billy Crystal or Donald Trump for $200,000 and above. I wonder if these are pre-recession rates? Seem a bit high to me.
