The final Tommie Smith booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Tommie Smith charge for an event. An example fee to book Tommie Smith is in the starting range of $15,000-$24,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.

There is low probability to book Tommie Smith for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Tommie Smith agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Tommie Smith, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Tommie Smith booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired.
