"Looking back, I can’t think of a time when a professional speaker has had the challenge of presenting eight continuous hours of four separate seminar presentations. You not only accomplished that challenge, you clearly exceeded everyone’s expectations and delivered four of the most informative and actionable sales/marketing skill seminars that I have ever seen."

"I have spoken too many of the managers who attended the seminar. Comments ranged from “terrific, I really learned something” to “I was having such a good time I didn’t realize I was learning a lot.” The general consensus was that they appreciated the real-world angle to your talk; that you used anecdotes and stories to which they could truly relate."

"As we discussed on the telephone the other day, August was a very strong sales month for Creative Optics. The company had more salesmen hit one hundred percent of objective then ever before. In speaking with some of our sales personnel, it has become clear to us that your presentation had a positive impact on their selling techniques. Your presentation showed them how to get around many of the obstacles that they encountered."

"The response has been “fantastic”. We are spending the same amount of money, but we are receiving a much higher concentration level and lower cost per new customer. Image mail was costing approximately $24.00 to get a new guest in our salon. “Streetfighting” cost is approximately $3.00. "

Our Regional Managers couldn’t wait to get back to their regions to start implementing many of the ideas created from your speech."
