In May the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce invited Ralf Bronnenmeier as a guest breakfast speaker.
Our experience inviting speakers falls in one of three categories:
1 the invitee needs to think about it and get back to us later,
2 the invitee needs to check his calendar and get back to us later,
(Categories 1 and 2 require a second phone call to the invitee for a definite yes or no)
3 the invitee asks, “Why do you want me as your speaker?”
We invited Ralf and his response was none of the above. It was immediate.
