Frequently Asked Questions on Working With Melissa
What should I know about working with you?
Working with me is a collaborative, high-energy experience. I blend movement, music, and meaningful stories to create unforgettable moments. I show up prepared, flexible, and focused on your audience’s transformation from cautious to courageous. I strive to be SO easy to work with. No divas here.
What's included in your fee?
My fee includes a personalized keynote, thoughtful pre-event planning, and post-event connection. Every detail is crafted to reflect your audience and goals so they feel seen, inspired, and ready to move from cautious to courageous. It’s more than a talk; it’s a shared experience.
Can you customize your presentation for our specific audience and event theme?
Absolutely! Every audience is unique, and I treat them that way. I customize each experience to reflect your theme, your goals, and your people, weaving in stories, movement, and message that make your event unforgettable, empowering, and truly one-of-a-kind.
What kind of promotional support do you offer to help market the event?
I love helping you build excitement! I offer custom promo videos, social media shoutouts, podcast mentions (if timing aligns), and event-specific posts to highlight your theme. I’m your enthusiastic partner in getting people curious, inspired, and ready to show up.
How do you engage audiences post-event?
I love keeping the momentum going after the event! I engage audiences post-event through personalized follow-up resources, reflection prompts, curated content, and social media connection. I also welcome continued conversation, collaboration, and community building beyond the stage.
Do you offer extras (book signings, meet-and-greets)?
Yes! I’m always excited to connect beyond the keynote. I offer extras like meet & greets, VIP Q&As, photo ops, and even post-talk conversations in the hallway or green room. Sometimes it makes sense to do an additional deep dive breakout, and I'm definitely open to that!
My organization has a limited budget. Do you have any flexibility in your pricing?
Absolutely. I believe value goes beyond just a dollar amount. If there’s alignment in mission, audience, or opportunity, I’m always open to a conversation. Let’s explore how we can co-create something powerful, memorable, and mutually meaningful.
