There are a number of agencies that can book celebrities either to make a speech, perform, or just appear at corporate conventions, publicity events, or charity benefits. These booking services cater to companies that believe that contact with major television, movie, music, and sports personalities will enhance their company's image. They rely on the fact that many celebrities are interested in getting alternative exposure and income. These companies will contact a personality, present him or her with a company's proposal, and negotiate a deal, generally within a day or two. Some of these agencies are:
