How does Premiere Speakers Bureau's 'Zero Cost Service' model work?

The speaker covers our commission from their standard honorarium as payment for our role in marketing and managing their engagements.

A speaker's fee typically covers the keynote presentation, a pre-event planning call, and standard customization. Travel expenses are usually billed separately.

What are the standard policies for speaker travel and expenses?
