Create a Modern Interactive Website for Core Speakers Agency

Core Speakers Agency

We book keynote speakers for conferences and events. Our target audience is B to B: event planners and others looking to find and book speakers for their events.

This is our current website: Speaking.com. We are creating the Core Speakers Agency as a separate website, but with the same / similar content.

Currently, we have a generic WordPress theme loaded at coreagency.com. We like the large format graphics, animations, etc. We want the look to be modern, clean and easy to navigate.

We want the same content elements as found on the sister site pages below. But, feel free to add new design elements and anything else you feel would enhance the pages.

1) Home page (current sister site: http://speaking.com/):
Want similar content as on our sister site home page above: main speakers highlighted, exclusive interviews list (maybe with some type of icon), browse by topic & names lists (drop down or some other way?), search box, testimonials, etc.

2) Speaker Profile Page (current sister site: http://speaking.com/speakers/kevin-harrington/). Elements:
Speaker photo
Topics
Speaking fee
Travels from
Bio
Programs
Testimonials
Books
Videos (some type of cool video viewer / thumbnails and then click to load video?)
Articles

3) Blog Page (current sister site: http://speaking.com/blog-post/how-m…en-hines/)
Photo
Speaker Name
Date
Title
More blogs in the topic area
Blog copy with quotes (this is a CSS style that can be changed in your version)
Add blog topics with links?

4) Speaker Category Page (current sister site: http://speaking.com/category/leader…speakers/)
Category description
Photo for category
Refine results
Topic list (you can see currently on left hand side)
List of speakers: photo, name, fee, travels from, summary.).

I don't want an old web design look... want modern and hip, current design themes. Our current sister site at Speaking.com, for instance, is looking a bit dated.

We will be adapting the web design to our existing WordPress them at Speaking.com. But, just to underscore, we are NOT replacing the design at Speaking.com. We are creating an entirely new brand Core Speakers Agency - logo attached. We will be using similar content, but the brands will be separate.
