Your expertiseis a business.Run it like one.
Marquee is where organizations book speakers — and where the person on the stage finally gets the ledger behind it. Published fees, a real contract, money held in escrow, purchase orders and net-30.
Free to join. You’re only charged a commission when you actually get booked.
Organizations booking on Marquee include School districts, Health systems, Conferences, Associations, Universities, Corporate teams, Government agencies, Nonprofits, Unions, Faith organizations.
Marquee is an app
It lives on your phone.
The whole business travels with you — the opportunities, the contract, the money, the proof. These are real screens from the build, running on an iPhone.
Opportunity Radar
Board agendas, procurement portals and grant cycles, watched for you — and the proposal already drafted.
Join on the web today and your account, your address and your page are waiting the moment you install it. Signing up here also means no app-store cut is taken out of what you keep.

A following is not a business until it has a ledger.
An audience is rented.
Two hundred thousand people on a social page belong to a platform that can change the rules overnight — and did, twice, last year.
A booking is owned.
A signed engagement, a purchase order and a payment record are yours. They travel with you, they compound, and nobody can algorithm them away.
The gap is infrastructure.
Not talent. The people who get booked repeatedly are rarely the best on stage — they're the ones who are easy to buy from.
Who books on Marquee
Every sector that putssomeone in front of a room.
Education is where Marquee starts — it is not where it stops. The mechanics of booking an expert are the same whether the audience is attending a district in-service, hospital grand rounds, a sales kickoff, or a town hall.
For experts
Everything that happens around the sixty minutes on stage.
The talk was never the hard part. The hard part is being found, being priced, being contracted, being paid, and being able to prove afterwards that the day was worth what it cost.
Your fees, published
The number a buyer can't find is the number that kills the booking. Marquee puts your formats and prices on the page, so the conversation starts at scope instead of at price.
Opportunity Radar
Board agendas, procurement portals, conference calls for proposals and grant cycles — watched for you, matched to what you actually do, and delivered with the proposal already drafted.
Fee intelligence
Comparable pricing from real completed bookings. If you're saying yes to everything, that isn't popularity — it's underpricing, and Marquee tells you so and hands you the script.
The impact ledger
Your event shouldn't end with applause. Marquee captures measurable outcomes, attendee feedback, and future business metrics, then packages them into a one-page executive impact report.
The Studio
Talk architecture, ballroom-legible decks, and a rehearsal room that scores pace, filler and arc — then runs a simulated Q&A from a skeptical principal or a budget-focused board member.
AI surfaceA marketplace, not a mailing list
Sell the resources you already made, licence them to a district on a purchase order, and keep 80% when the sale happens on the web.
The AI Studio
Build the asset. Don’t rent it.
Everything in here works from your own material — your transcripts, your recordings, your profile. It makes your thing better rather than handing you a template with your name dropped into it.
The whole workshop
Talk architecture, deck work, rehearsal, media, generation and a site — in one place, with the credits shown before you spend them.
Talk Architect
Built from your own transcripts, so what comes out is your story structured better — not a template with your name on it. Every beat marked lands or sags.
Rehearsal Room
Not a mirror — a simulated audience built from the real profile of the room you're booked into. Pace, filler, the pause after the ask, all scored.
Voice cloning is opt-in, revocable within the hour, and never licensed to anyone else. Nothing generated of a real person leaves the app without a visible AI label.
What it costs
Four numbers, and none of them are a subscription.
Organizations pay nothing until they book someone, and the service fee is disclosed on the engagement before anyone signs.
Your page
Proof over personality.
A Marquee page leads with stages worked, people reached and how often you get invited back — not adjectives. Reviews come only from people who were verified to be in the room.
- Your own address — marqueespeaker.com/your-name — that fits on a business card and inside a QR code.
- A showreel and clip rail that plays inside Marquee, so the booking that follows is traceable to the clip that caused it.
- Formats and fees, stated plainly, including a Title I and small-school rate if you choose to hold one open.
Everything shown alongside is an illustration of the layout — not a real member.
The marketplace
The things you already made, earning while you sleep.
Creators keep 80%, and the catalogue belongs to the people who built it. The bigger line isn’t the single download — it’s a district buying a site licence on a purchase order, which is exactly where the incumbents are weak.
Your catalog
The things you already made, earning while you're not in the room — and district site licences on a purchase order, which is where the real money is.
Where should this sell?
Same resource, two rails. The difference is the app store's cut, and Marquee shows it to you in dollars instead of hiding it.
An $18 resource, two different rails.
Sold from your Marquee page on the web you keep $14.40. Sold inside the app you keep $10.08, because the app store takes 30% off the top before anything else is counted. Marquee shows you both numbers before you list — it is your call, not a default we made quietly.
Circles
Where the network talks.
A social page rents you an audience from a platform that can change the rules overnight. This is the same conversation on ground you own.
- Role, region and topic circles, so the room is people with your problem.
- Mentor matching by the problem you're stuck on, not by job title.
- The Green Room — fees, contracts, and who not to work with.
For organizations
Booking someone should not take six weeks and nine emails.
Describe the day in a sentence. Get a ranked shortlist with the reasoning shown — including the trade-offs. Then book on one card that carries the fee, the travel, the contract and the paperwork your finance office is going to ask for anyway.
How a booking works
Four steps, and the money is never in doubt.
They describe the day in plain language
Not a search form. A sentence — who's in the room, how long, what has to change by Monday, and the all-in ceiling including travel.
Marquee returns a ranked shortlist, with reasoning
Every match shows why it ranks where it does, including the trade-offs. Paid placement never enters the ranking — there is no paid placement.
One card carries both sides of the money
Fee, travel, the buyer's service fee and your net — on one engagement, before anyone signs. The speaker agreement, sole-source letter, W-9 and COI generate themselves.
The money is held until you've delivered
Funds are authorised up front and released after the engagement. Purchase orders and net-30 are supported, because that's how institutions actually pay.
Both sides see the same number.
A client that names its own price is not a payment system. Every fee on a Marquee engagement is recomputed on the server before the money moves — the buyer’s 6% service fee and the expert’s 12% commission are shown on the card, in dollars, before either party signs.
The part that compounds
You’re on here as a speaker. The place you work books speakers.
Almost everyone who joins Marquee as an expert also works somewhere that hires them — a district, a system, a company, an association. Bringing that organization in takes one link, and you get visible credit for every one you bring.
An invitation from someone inside the building gets opened. A vendor email does not.
In the room
The moment after the keynote, solved.
The strongest leads you will ever get are the people who walk up as you come off the stage. It is also exactly where paper fails, because nobody has a card when it matters.
One of you shows a code, the other points a camera. No app on either phone — it opens your Marquee page in the browser, and the code can be re-pointed or revoked without reprinting a thing.
The card, and the code
A business card can’t autoplay.
Paper gives someone a name, a title and a number, and then dies in a drawer. Your Marquee card carries the reel, the rating, the fees and the open dates — and it is never the out-of-date version, because there is only one of it.
The card
Your reel, rating, stats and fees on one link — assembled from the live profile, so it is never the stale version.
Show the code
Any phone camera opens it. No app on either side, and nothing to type out in a noisy hallway.
Or scan theirs
Saved as a contact, tagged with the event you met at, follow-up already drafted.
The code is dynamic — it resolves to your current card, and can be re-pointed or revoked without reprinting a thing.
Non-negotiable
Four rules that don’t move.
These are not a privacy page. They are product constraints — the kind that make a district’s legal review short, and that a competitor would have to rebuild their business model to match.
No student data. Ever.
Marquee is an adults-only professional network. Nothing about a child touches it, which keeps FERPA and COPPA out of the procurement conversation entirely and turns district legal review into a short meeting.
The list is never for sale.
Sponsors can buy delivery into a segment. They cannot buy the segment. Your name reaches a partner only when you tap a button that says so.
Sponsored means labelled — and never ranked.
Paid placement cannot touch match results. If a thing is an ad, it says so on its face.
Voices belong to their owners.
Voice cloning is opt-in, revocable within the hour, never licensable to a third party and never used in advertising. That's in the member terms, not buried in a settings screen.
Put your name on the marquee.
It takes about a minute. You’ll leave with a page you can send to anyone who has ever asked what you charge.
