I selected a Pickstar product as a Chrissy gift for my children. The process was great and Jarryd Lyons did a brilliant job crafting a super message.

Very professional from the beginning. I was able to get a bigger star than I imagined for my budget. Overall it's been an extremely positive experience and I would recommend Pickstar to get your brand out there.

We used Pickstar when we were planning our Bi-Annual Mastermind Event for our clients. TODD HAZELWOOD was our selected Guest Speaker - what a treat ! I highly recommend using Pickstar for your next event - the process was easy and the team very friendly, and then having Todd appear at our event - it took our evet to the next level. Todd was AMAZING ! He over exceeded our expectations. Thanks Pickstar and thanks again Todd !

Great Speakers with relevant & inspiring stories. Our staff were engaged & interested in the speakers, asking great questions to find out more. I can highly recommend having a speaker inspire & motivate your group. This was an excellent way to celebrate IDPWD & will look at holding this kind of event again.

Pickstar were great to deal with and quick to respond when required. Squiz was engaging and has led a very interesting life, and he was able to tailor his session to exactly what we were after. I would recommend Pickstar and hope to use them again in the future.

Last time we worked with Pickstar I rated them a 5/5 but we didn't have the same experience this time. We originally booked Khadija Gbla and were assigned Nick Menechella as our Pickstar account manager. Nick was very hard to get in contact with, he didn't reply to our emails without being prompted via text or call. We didn't hear back from Khadija via the chat the entire time and this was concerning. As a result, we followed up with Nick several times to ensure that the booking is confirmed and he wasn't very helpful. When it came down to D-day as to whether or not we could go forward with Khadija, Nick was on leave. I emailed Ashleigh and she was super helpful. She responded to my email straight away and called me to update me on the situation and find an alternative speaker for Khadija who was on sick leave. Ashleigh helped us to have a new speaker confirmed within 24 hours and saved the day. From this point onwards, everything was smooth sailing, Ashleigh is a star but the process before she took over was quite frustrating. The other thing is that Pickstar were quite pushy for payment and not very accommodating of Council's payment process which involved paying invoices once the goods/service has been received. Instead, we had to pay a deposit and pay the balance of the invoice on the day of the event which was a lot of work and deviated from the normal process on our end. We love the range of speakers on Pickstar and hope that our next experience is more like our first one :)

Hi Brent, Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience, and we do apologise that it didn’t meet our typical standards here at Pickstar. We want to ensure all clients have a smooth and enjoyable experience at every step of the process. As such, we have addressed this feedback internally to make sure that the experience we provide is above and beyond across all touchpoints. We are thrilled to hear the second portion of your experience was fantastic! Regarding the payment process, we do require payment prior to the event to ensure that talent are fully covered for their attendance, as is our agreement with the talent on our platform. However, we will absolutely take this feedback onboard to see if we can work towards a more accommodating payment process where needed. Thanks again for the feedback and we can’t wait to work with you again in the near future to help bring your next event to life! :) Happy Holidays from the Pickstar Team.

Hi All, It was a great pleasure to have the opportunity to invite Matthew Pavlich to Geraldton to speak about such an important topic as Mental Health. From the start, Nick from Pickstar was a great help and provided me with support to navigate throughout the process. Being part of local government, I am required to follow detailed procedures, so thank you, Nick, for your patience. If it weren't for you, I would not be able to make this happen. I find the website very user-friendly, and I will use it in the future and recommend it to my colleagues. I must say that it makes the process of choosing and engaging with the keynote speaker very easy and straightforward. Regarding Matthew's speech, we have received great feedback from the community, City of Greater Geraldton staff and our executives. Matthew's presentation was very engaging and valuable, it clearly triggered the conversation about mental health within the community, which is what we were aiming for. Matthew charmed the audience with his warm personality, honesty and a good sense of humour, and I cannot thank him enough for this. We hope to have more opportunities like this to collaborate again in the future. I will be able to get some photos from our Communications Team during the next week. In the photos, you will see that the number of participants was lower than we anticipated. I believe this was due to the busy nature that we all experience at the end of the year. All attendees were genuine supporters of Matthew's carrier and had meaningful questions regarding mental health. And even If we made a change in only a few people's lives, it was 100% worth it. I might be able to provide you with more feedback from other people throughout the week, but please see the following feedback for our Aboriginal Engagement Officer: "If you could thank Pavlich for me please, he interacted great and did well covering both his AFL career and personal life, his a champ" Thank you all for everything and for making the experience something we will all remember for a very long time. Warm Regards, Pav :) PS: Just between us, to humour you, my task allocation plan for the event went out of the window the moment Matthew arrived. They all got distracted and were too busy to chat with him :-D

Positive experience from the start and the guest speaker Jahin Tanvir was received really well with great feedback from all who attended. He was engaging, fun and motivational.

Easy experience from the start, Lauren was super accommodating and helpful with putting together our brief. We locked in Mark 'Squiz' Squirrell who ran an interactive workshop on leadership for 35 of our clients. He was inspiring, he connected with the audience, he bought along some VR goggles which kept everyone engaged. Will be using Pickstar again next year to find another guest speaker for our next event!

We contacted Pickstar, to procure a Guest speaker for an International Day of People with Disability function at our [Govt Dept] workplace. The EOI was sent out to talent, based on our location in Perth and up to the maximum of our budget at the time. We were after a speaker who had a disability themselves, to be able to share their story, triumphs, challenges and inspiration. Our shortlisted star, Georgia, realised she was not going to be able to attend in the week before the event and took it upon herself to contact one of her colleagues to see if they could stand in instead, so we were grateful that Georgia had taken the initiative to provide us with an alternative. We had good communication from both Georgia's management, (stand-in speaker) Amber's management and our Pickstar booking manager, Nick Menechella. Additionally, when Nick was out of office and I needed to resolve the changeover of talent booking from one name to another, Pickstar Admin assisted promptly. The website, booking and payment procedures are easy to navigate and the messaging function helps to keep track of where things are at. My only suggestion would be, that sometimes messaging for all comm's is not always practical and phone conversations are easier for sorting any queries and information quickly. Management and guests at our function were very happy with Amber's keynote speech and willingness to go over & above with sharing her story, Q&A session that followed and bringing in her medals for guests to see! We would use Pickstar again.

The pickstar service was fantastic for our event and we found the perfect MC for our event we would not have otherwise had. The customer service and reminders on the platform were very helpful and made sure we had great results for both the star and our event.

Tony Modra made my brother’s night! He was fantastic. He may have given my family great memories on the field, but now off as well. Could not recommend him highly enough. What a top bloke! Thanks so much for a night my family will never forget.
