So you're in the market for a new portable speaking accessory, something to add a stylish yet extremely useful flair to your next speech, presentation, or lesson. Of course you want something that looks good, travels well, and offers all the amenities.
The Must-have Accessory for a Traveling Speaker:
As a business professional, author, minister, or public speaker who travels to speaking engagements around the country, you surely know the frustration of inadequate facilities. Have you ever arrived at your destination, whether it’s a hotel, conference center, church, or school, and discovered they didn’t have a podium available? Instead of focusing on your presentation, you end up distracted juggling papers, drinks, pens, remotes, and other presentation aids. Or maybe your speech was cut short because you had to wait for someone to drag a heavy podium from a room across the building or campus where it was last used. With a traveling ProLectern™ from ProProducts™, you can be prepared for any speaking situation, anywhere you go.
If you’ve ever hauled luggage, laptop bag, carry-on, and briefcase through an airport, you know the value of packing light - and so does ProProducts™. The ProLectern™ folds silently and effortlessly to a slim 1.68” wide, and weighs about 22 pounds. Americans often equate weight with quality, but with this thin portable multimedia podiums durable weatherized aluminum construction, lightweight simply equals ease of use and portability.
Almost as important as being thin and lightweight, however, is being easy to carry. ProProducts™ ProLectern™ features built-in handles on either side, so whether you’re right or left-handed you can carry it comfortably. For extra protection and even easier transportation while traveling, tuck the multimedia lectern into a sleek carry bag perfect for air travel.

The portable ProLectern™ is designed with a speaker’s needs in mind - it’s not just a place to set notes. With these multimedia podiums, instead of tripping over wires, thread them neatly through media ports on the top and inside shelf. Set your drink in perfectly-sized cup holders, and hide your object lessons inside the cabinet until needed. No other portable multimedia lectern gives you so much value in such a light, travel-worthy package. With one of our ProLectern™ traveling multimedia podium, you’ll never be caught unprepared again!
As you shop, keep in mind these five key features to look for in a mobile podium:
Compare Weights. How many pounds of portable podium do you want to lug across an airport or campus, or up a flight of stairs? Some multimedia podiums can weigh over 120 pounds! The material it’s made of will make a big difference. A wood or pressboard podium, for example, will weigh much more than a similar aluminum podium.
Storage Space. Once you arrive at your destination, you’ll need a place for books, notes, coffee cup, water bottle, laptop, and other odds and ends. The best portable multimedia podiums come complete with plenty of storage space, such as shelves and cabinets, to keep your belongings and speech aids neatly organized and out of sight.
Durability. If you plan to haul your portable multimedia lectern across the country, move it from room to room, or frequently set it up and tear it down, you’ll need something durable. Wood and pressboard tends to warp, fade, bubble, and stain. Consider a premium aluminum finish that’s easy to clean and virtually weather-proof, rain or shine.
Tech Friendly. Today’s presentations are often media-rich, so keep in mind that you’ll need a technology-friendly multimedia lectern. Media ports for laptop, projector, speaker, and microphone wires make it easy to tuck wires and cords out of the way, while keeping them organized and accessible. Multimedia podiums can add a professional tech touch to any presentation.
Presentation. And of course you need to look good! A professional, stylish, sleek podium can greatly impact a speaker’s credibility, and by extension, how the speech or lecture is received.
