Motivational speaker and preacher Robert Burale has been named the Most Professional Corporate MC in Africa.
The preacher was honoured at the annual Consumer Choice Award in Tanzania.
In an update on social media, Burale thanked the organizers of the event, his fans who voted in huge numbers and his fellow nominees.
“Thank you Consumer Choice Awards Africa Awards (Held In Tanzania) for the award of Most Professional Corporate Emcee in Africa 2022. To all who voted for me. Thank you. To my fellow nominees, God bless you,” he wrote.
In 2021, WoK published a feature on how much Burale charges to offer motivational talks.
Having faced a difficult childhood, divorcing his ex-wife and surviving COVID-19, his story is interesting and has inspired many.
Burale charges are not more than Ksh 100,000 per hour.
The preacher is also an image consultant, developing an image for a client in terms of appearance, behavior, and communication among other important factors.
Burale beleives that image consultancy is not really improving the outward appearance of a person but how they carry and present themselves out there.
As simple as it may seem, as of 2018, he was charging between KSh 12,000 and KSh 120,000 for individuals and corporates consultancy respectively.
“On the lower scale, cost for individual consultancy starts from $100 per hour while corporate starts at $1000 an hour,” Burale said.
