We recently had the pleasure of hearing from Hannah MacDougall and Nathan Charles who were invited to speak virtually for our global employee audience to support the launch of our final corporate value 'We are Bold'. Hannah and Nathan were an absolute inspiration to us all. They spoke about about determination, resilience and the importance of setting the right goals. Their messages were 100% on point for the session we had planned. This and their ability to authentically engage our international audience with humour and heart, made them the perfect choices for our event. The feedback we had from our audience was incredible. Thank you also to Ashleigh Pernini for her support in setting up the connections. It was a seamless process

We found working with Gemma Houghton and her Team a delight and she was a standout on the day of our event. Thanks Gemma. Only 4 stars left as after initially booking via email, the online chat was problematic and not as helpful as it was intended to be. Direct contact via email or online meetings would be far more beneficial, especially once the management team and star have been signed up. Having an email alerting me to a message left on Pickstar for my booking may assist this program. Meg

Peter 'Spida' Everitt attended our Staff Christmas Function last Friday and what a great impression he made - from the moment he arrived he engaged with all staff, shared insight and stories and was the perfect fit for our group. He was punctual, communicative and thoroughly entertaining. The feedback we had from our team was fabulous.

It was very easy to find and book a speaker that catered to the goals outlined for the presentation we required. Chris Anstey was very engaging and hit the mark in terms of pitching to the audience, meeting the goals set and having an inspiring persona that the students looked up to. Highly recommend Pickstar for future guest presenter bookings.

Liam is an inspiration. We engaged Liam for a virtual session to focus on Men’s Health and I have to say, our team members were impressed by his storytelling. From organising the event to the day itself was smooth and easy to communicate the finer details. We would love to work with Liam again for future events.

Had a great experience with the whole process from booking to presenting. Matt Pavlich was an awesome guest speaker. His talk was very relatable and was so easy to listen to. I had wonderful feedback from the 180 people that attended. Thanks so much Pickstar.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting Eric Bailey at our College's Yr 10 breakfast celebration with staff, students and parents. Eric had a tough assignment given we only gave him 10-15 for an impactful keynote for our students and families. Eric nailed the brief and was able to relate his story to our students and parents, weaving in key messages for our young people. The feedback from our students, parents and staff was incredibly positive and we hope to be able to use Eric again in the future.

Hi There, We were quite disappointed this year with what we received. In our brief for the speaker, we identified some key talking points we wanted them to bring and an allotted time frame of 15 minutes. We ended up getting around 6 minutes. What he said was ok, but it was not entirely relevant to what we had requested. The most disappointing thing was more the length he went for and the fact he seemed very nervous throughout his presentation and like he had not done much of this before. (It was more like he was talking to the boys at halftime, rearranging the furniture more times than we would care to mention). This is nothing against him personally, he just seemed really nervous. There was a significant increase in price for guest speakers (based on previous years we have used Pickstar) and I am curious as to how you screen your speakers. What is your selection process for athletes to join your platform and be selected to speak? To pay just under $1000 for 6 minutes is not justifiable to us, considering what we got. This has raised concerns for us about using Pickstar again in the future. I would like to request a refund of all or some of the funds as we did not recieve what we had booked for. *Pickstar has amended the problems we had*

I used Pickstar to book an opening speaker at a recent awards ceremony. The selection and booking were very quick and easy. I booked Eric Bailey, who was excellent. Eric fully understood the brief and the audience he was asked to speak to. The moment he stood up, he had the room, his engaging manner and audience interaction were second to none. He took the room on a journey, culminating in facing in to the challenges, we as a department, are about to face. Eric delivered exactly what we had asked of him and left the room on a high - setting the day up for success and arming our people with a mindset to deal with the unknown.

Lauren Hohepa was the Engagement Executive who supported us with our booking of Peter Bol from start to finish. She made us feel supported every step of the way with her friendly and thorough approach. We highly recommend Lauren from Pickstar for booking talent for corporate events.

I'm pleased to say I have had an extremely positive experience dealing with Loren Renton for my event. He made the journey so simple ensuring all my queries were answered in a timely manner and went over and beyond to accommodate my request. Loren stands out purely due to his passion and ensuring all client needs are actioned appropriately, from the beginning to completion which is critical.

Pickstar was initially confusing to use. I wasn’t sure how to set up my video greeting. But, perhaps I was just having a “senior moment” 🤷‍♀️. I did get it happening relatively easily. I received the video within two days which was great. I was just a tiny bit disappointed that my “greeter” did not make reference to the information I had supplied re an essay my son had written about said greeter 27 years ago! However, he did wish my son a very happy birthday and I’m sure he will like it on the day

Pickstar was efficient and provided great communication in the lead up to our event. I would highly recommend using the services of Pickstar should you require a guest speaker attend an event or function.

Amazing platform to seek a speaker. I had a positive experience throughout - from my first conversation with a lovely Pickstar team member who assisted with our add, to our wonderful speaker on the day. It made my task of pulling together a workshop so much easier. I 100% recommend this platform.
