"GBS was the first company to deliver without a return phone call." "I called several companies and got promises for information on speakers. GBS was the first company who delivered without a return phone call. I was impressed by the level of professionalism and the willingness they offered to help us in selecting a speaker who could fit our corporate needs. Turnaround time for answers and documents was never more than 24 hours." - Vanessa Warren, Union Pacific Railroad Company. |

"I felt like I was able to make a professional as well as a personal connection."
"Working with Great Black Speakers has been a real
pleasure.
Working out
all of the details was easy because I
was able to talk to you in a more laid-back, personal way
than I would have expected; I felt that I was able
to make a professional as well as personal connection, which
made the process actually enjoyable.
Also, when there were times of confusion on
my part, dealing with the contracts and payment, it was nice
to have someone who was willing to explain the details
numerous times and help me to understand.
It was also great to work with a company
that was understanding of our needs and our experience.
Our overall experience with this organization was one of
the most positive ones that we could ever ask for, and it
really made this complicated process of organizing an event
of this magnitude less stressful.
RCMBA will definitely keep Great Black
Speakers in mind when planning future events." |

"We think this may have been the most exciting and best lecture ever!" "Definitely would use Great Black Speakers again. Lawrence was very attentive, helpful at the beginning when we identified possible speakers and actively involved in the booking, scheduling and coordination aspects of obtaining Leonard Pitts, Jr. for our engagement. We think this may have been the most exciting and best lecture ever! Since it is an election year, that added to the drama: Title: Race, Politics and the Drama of Obama. THANK YOU!" - Jill Demichle, Arizona State University |
