FAQs

About Our Services

Q: Who benefits most from working with Kreiter Creatives?
Event planners who need the right speakers + polished programs, leaders and teams who want memorable presentations, sales teams who want influence through storytelling, and professionals ready to build a speaking brand or signature keynote.

Q: What is a “Back Pocket” keynote or presentation?
Back Pocket keynote is a ready-to-deliver, strategic talk you can use for events, virtual stages, media interviews, client pitches, or brand videos — built to convert and connect, not just inform.

Q: How do your coaching and consulting engagements work?
Our process starts with clarity — discovering goals — then aligning your story and message, designing content that moves audiences, and rehearsing with performance focus so you deliver with confidence and impact.

About Preparations & Expectations

Q: How should I prepare for my first session?
Before your scheduled call or workshop, send any slides, talk outlines, brand materials, or existing content — so we can focus immediately on strategic improvements. Arrive with questions and curiosity, not perfection.

Q: What happens in the first meeting?
We’ll clarify your objectives, review your current content or story, and start building your signature message structure. You’ll get clear feedback and practical steps you can use right away.

Q: Do you work virtually or in person?
Both — coaching, reviewing, and rehearsals happen remotely or in person, depending on your needs and schedule.

Event & Speaker Strategy

Q: How far in advance should I secure speakers for an event?
Headliners and strategic talent should be reserved 6–12 months ahead, especially for high-profile or seasonal events. Great speakers book early.

Q: What makes a recommended speaker right for my event?
We vet talent for message relevance, audience fit, and stage presence — not just name recognition. That means stronger engagement and higher satisfaction from your attendees.

Q: Can you coach presenters besides the keynote speaker?
Yes — breakout presenters, internal leaders, panels, and MCs all benefit from real rehearsal and narrative alignment.
