Lisa Cortes Booking Agency Profile

Book Lisa Cortes for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
An accomplished film and music producer, Lisa Cortes has a special talent for giving light to expressive voices not often heard and stories not often told. After reading Sapphires novel Push in 1996, Cortes was tremendously moved by the powerful message and knew it had to be translated to the big screen. The result was 2009's captivating hit film Precious, which received six Academy Award nominations and two wins. Aligned with Cortess mission of instigating and propagating cutting-edge African American culture and issues through the arts to promote change, she sold her vision of Sapphires book to director Lee Daniels. She then worked for four years to convince Sapphire to transform the novel Push into the film Precious. Not only known as a main catalyst behind the film, Cortes was also a driving force in the music industry as one of the handful of people who launched Def Jam Records during the golden age of hip-hop..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Lisa Cortes to speak.

Will Lisa Cortes do a virtual event?
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Lisa Cortes in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Lisa Cortes or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Is Lisa Cortes available to work my event?
Lisa Cortes's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Lisa Cortes for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Lisa Cortes, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Lisa Cortes. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
How much is Lisa Cortes charging for events?
CTI can give you the accurate Lisa Cortes booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Lisa Cortes for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Lisa Cortes 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 Lisa Cortes charge for an event. An example fee to book Lisa Cortes is in the starting range of $7,500-$14,999. 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.
How do I contact the Lisa Cortes agent or manager?
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Lisa Cortes agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Lisa Cortes manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
Can I book Lisa Cortes for an event at a price less than shown?
There is low probability to book Lisa Cortes for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Lisa Cortes agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Lisa Cortes, 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 Lisa Cortes 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. We do not personally speak for Lisa Cortes, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
