"Thank you so much for your amazing presentations at S.P. Richards' recent conference. While the evaluation forms described your program as 'fantastic ... excellent ... and ... better than the best,' they don't really convey the rampant enthusiasm that I experienced in the hallways after your sessions. Crowds of people stopped me to thank me for hiring you and several described your session as 'life changing'. Some people even sat through the same presentation a second time and made their entire staff drop what they were doing to participate in your sessions. You truly struck a chord with many of these stressed out, multi-tasking entrepreneurs.

- Sandra C. Williams, Director of Dealer Training and Development, S.P. Richards
