Got Questions?

I’ve got some answers.

What topics do you specialise in?

I speak on all things marketing – including social media, digital marketing, content creation, AI, branding, visibility, building community, and human-to-human marketing. I also cover practical, free marketing strategies that help small businesses grow without the overwhelm. You can view my current keynote topics here.

How can I book you for my event?

Just head over to my speaker enquiry page or email me at jenn@jenndonovan.com.au. We’ll book a quick call to chat through your needs and tailor the perfect presentation.

Can you customise your keynote/presentation for my audience?

Absolutely! Every event is different, and I tailor all my sessions to suit your audience, industry, and event objectives. Customisation is part of the package – no generic content here.

What types of events have you spoken at before?

I’ve presented at conferences, business summits, expos, networking events, government programs, and online workshops – from small local events to international conferences.

How long are your keynotes/presentations?

Keynotes typically run for 45–60 minutes, workshops typically 60-90 minutes, but I can adapt to suit your schedule. I also offer workshops, breakout sessions, panel appearances, and full-day programs.

Do you offer virtual speaking engagements?

Yes! I deliver keynotes, webinars, and workshops virtually via Zoom or your preferred platform – perfect for remote or hybrid events.

Do you travel nationally and internationally for speaking events?

Absolutely. I travel regularly across Australia and am available for international events too. No matter your location, we can make it work.

How much does it cost to book you for an event?

Fees vary depending on your event type, location, and requirements. Get in touch and I’ll provide a custom quote that works for your event and budget.

Can we get a preview of your speaking style?

Yes – you can watch me in action here, or download my Speaker Kit for video links and testimonials.

How early should we book you for our event?

The earlier the better! Some clients book up to 6–12 months in advance. That said, always reach out – I may have availability.

Can attendees interact with you after your presentation?

Yes – I love sticking around after my sessions for Q&A, chats, or photos. I’m also available for follow-up workshops or mentoring if your audience wants more. It’s one of the perks of speaking – the staying in touch!

Do you provide marketing support to help promote our event?

Absolutely! I’ll help promote your event across my social media, podcast, and email list where relevant. I can help you with copy, tailor make a video recording about my topic or keynote for you to share. I want your event to be a huge success. Need something, just ask.

Can we book you for a workshop, panel, or as an MC too?

Yes – I regularly run masterclasses, join expert panels, and MC events. I can deliver multiple sessions or support your event in several ways.

What AV or tech setup do you require?

A lapel or handheld mic, HDMI projector, and screen is perfect. I can bring my own laptop and clicker if needed. I keep tech simple and flexible and always come with loads of leads and adaptors, just in case!

Do you include handouts or resources?

Most of my presentations include downloadable workbooks or takeaway resources, so your audience can take action straight away. Often a workbook is supplied – depending on the topic.

What industries do you work with most?

I’ve worked with small business owners across almost every industry – retail, tourism, health, agriculture, professional services, creative industries, and more.

Can we schedule a briefing call before the event?

Always. I always highly recommend it. I’ll jump on a briefing call with you to understand your audience, event goals, and what success looks like – so I can deliver just that. And then following the event, I’d love to jump on a call again, and chat about the event.

Are your presentations suitable for rural or remote audiences?

100%! I live on a farm in rural NSW and specialise in speaking to, for, and about rural and regional businesses. It’s where I do my best work. That said, around 50% of my work is done in capital cities at this stage – it’s just where the actual stages are!
