Brad Burton knows what it takes to turn life around. Raised on a council estate and left without qualifications, he spent years grappling with unemployment, debt, and a series of dead-end jobs. By the age of 31, he was a father, deeply in debt, and delivering pizzas to make ends meet. It was during this low point that Brad realised a shift in mindset could be his way out. This moment marked the start of a journey that would eventually see him build a multi-million-pound business and become one of the UK’s most sought-after motivational speakers.

Known as the UK’s No.1 motivational business speaker, Brad speaks from experience, not just theory. He is the founder of the UK’s largest business networking organisation, which he led for 16 years before selling it in 2022. Through his four best-selling books and over 2,500 public speaking engagements, Brad has established himself as a genuine voice in the business and motivational world. His relatable, no-nonsense approach has resonated with audiences across the UK, from young entrepreneurs to established CEOs, helping them tackle challenges with renewed resilience and focus.

Brad’s journey is a testament to the power of grit, adaptability, and a positive outlook. His story, peppered with humour and grounded by the ups and downs of real life, brings something different to every stage he steps on. Audiences don’t just leave inspired, they leave ready to act. Brad’s authenticity and candour have earned him a loyal following and consistently high ratings, making him Amazon’s highest-rated motivational business author.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements. We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Can I request a speaker to send a personal greeting?

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

How much do speakers and comedians cost?

We work with speakers across a variety of fee ranges, giving you the flexibility to choose someone who fits your event's needs. Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000. In the US, virtual in-person fees range from $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the speaker and format, such as after-dinner talks, conference keynotes, Q&As, or podcasts. Comedians generally start at £1,500 or $2,000 for a 20-minute set.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.
