When I first began working with Rick to learn the process of becoming a Cruise Speaker my perception was quite different from the reality. I had never even been on a cruise and had my own ideas about topics I thought would be of interest to cruise lines. Rick helped me understand the concept of how passengers wanted to be “info-tained” and not “brain-drained”. He detailed the process of creating my Bio, Topics and Talks to appeal to the cruise lines and the various agencies that place speakers on these wonderful cruises. His insight and industry knowledge proved to be invaluable to me on my very first cruise which, based upon passenger feedback, I consider an overwhelming success.Bob Ray
Rick and Bill know the business of speaking on cruise ships and will help you get aboard, too. Period.
I am a graduate of their Speaking on Cruise Ships training, ran with their advice and it has been a grand adventure! I’m off for Mexico this JAN with international destinations on my horizon later next year.Audry Lynch

I received individual instruction from Mr. Rick Deutsch on how to become a qualified lecturer on cruises.
He guided me step by step on the following: the nature of the audience, how to prepare interesting talks, the expectations of the entertainment directors, and how to query the entertainment agencies.
His instructions were clear and practical.
They came from a person who has been successful in the field lecturing on such topics as California history, the wonders of Yosemite, and the saga of the building of the Panama Canal.
If you want to join the interesting profession, Rick Deutsch is your perfect guide!

Rick met Ian on a cruise. Ian was also a speaker. They got to be friends and Rick shared the SpeakOnCruises program with him.
This testimonial reflects his love of cruising and getting free cruises for him and Mrs Black.
