How to Create a Great Spotcast Profile

Your Spotcast profile is your storefront. Organizers discover you through search, topic pages, and recommendations — then decide in seconds whether to inquire. A complete, specific profile ranks better and converts more booking requests.

This guide aligns with Spotcast’s profile completeness criteria: the fields that matter most for visibility and trust.

Write a profession line that clarifies your role

Your profession appears in search results and profile headers. Use a clear title longer than a few characters — for example “Keynote Speaker on Leadership” rather than “Speaker.” Specificity helps bookers understand your niche immediately.

Craft a long, specific bio

Aim for at least 150 characters; stronger profiles often exceed 400. Cover:

What you speak or perform about
Typical event formats (keynotes, panels, workshops)
Notable audiences or industries
What makes your perspective distinctive

Avoid copying your LinkedIn headline verbatim. Search engines and bookers both reward unique, readable text.

Upload at least three professional photos

Use high-quality images that show you on stage, facilitating, or in professional context. Add captions or photo credits to at least half your images — this improves accessibility and signals polish.

Profiles with three or more images perform better in discovery and look credible on embed widgets you share on your own site.

Select topics, tags, and languages

Topics (categories) connect you to topic browse pages — choose every area that genuinely matches your work, up to the platform limit.

Tags add granular discoverability. Aim for at least three relevant tags (e.g. “female leadership,” “AI ethics,” “moderation”).

Languages list every language you can present in confidently. Multilingual profiles appear in more organizer searches across DACH and Europe.

Set your location and travel countries

Add your base city so regional bookers find you. If you travel for events, specify countries you are available to work in — this filters mismatched inquiries.

Add offerings bookers can actually purchase

Create at least one offering with a clear name, teaser, duration, and price or “price on request.” Offerings turn profile views into actionable inquiries.

Describe what is included so bookers do not have to guess.

Build trust with references and media

Optional but valuable:

Video embeds — show your stage presence
Podcast embeds — demonstrate conversational expertise
References — client quotes, company references, awards, or notable appearances
Social links — website, LinkedIn, or other professional profiles

These fields carry less weight than bio and photos for search, but they often tip bookers from “maybe” to “inquire.”

Profession title is specific (> 5 characters)
Bio is 150+ characters, ideally 400+
3+ photos with captions or credits where possible
At least one topic and three tags
Languages and location filled in
At least one offering published
Contact email or phone available
