If You Don't Know Dan Sims of The AGENCY Speakers Bureau... You Should!

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 30, 2008 – Local entrepreneur Dan Sims is one of the most connected people in the country…and yet most people have no idea who he is. The son of two Army officers and a recent MBA graduate of George Mason University, Sims opened THE AGENCY Speakers, LLC in 2005. Now, just three years later, THE AGENCY is one of the premiere talent management & representation agencies in the world working with talent ranging from NFL Hall of Famers like Steve Young and Troy Aikman, Hollywood legends like Whoopi Goldberg and Alec Baldwin, business gurus such as Marcus Buckingham and Pat Lencioni and political heavyweights including Bob Dole and George Mitchell among others. Subtly hidden out in The Plains, VA, Sims and his team operate an extremely efficient and highly visible business matching the country’s best associations, universities and corporations with talent ranging from very topic-specific content experts to world-renowned athletes and entertainers.

Some might mistake this meteoric rise for good luck or privileged timing, however Sims is not your ordinary ‘Jerry Maguire’. Unlike many agents, Dan is one of the most ethical and hard-working individuals you will ever find and has taken relationship-building to a whole new level. “Unfortunately many agents around the country have forgotten how important it is to know the talent they represent on a profoundly intimate level. Our meeting planning clients are extremely smart and often do enormous research on their own. They don’t need me to tell them where someone lives or where they went to school, they can read that in a bio. What they need is firsthand, personal experience and expertise, and that’s what we provide,” says Sims.

The way Sims builds client relationships you might be inclined to be jealous. Skiing in the Canadian Rockies with a travel guru, scuba diving off the Yucatan peninsula with a multicultural expert, drinking cocktails in Maui with the creator of a syndicated comic strip, hiking the Great Wall of China with a PhD, trekking Mt. Kilimanjaro with a world-class adventurer, eating crabs in Annapolis with a banking executive or dozens of other adventures, the way Dan Sims and his colleagues at THE AGENCY know to provide service is shaking up the more traditional talent agencies around the country.

That intimate knowledge of both their meeting planning clients and the talent has created a world-class speakers bureau. THE AGENCY’s clients come back time after time to work with one of the most provocative and creative agencies in the country.
