Eight years ago I wrote, "I knew you would be the home run I had been searching for. I was impressed with your pre-conference preparation and the time you obviously invested in understanding our organization and the unique characteristics of our needs." Still, eight years after his powerful keynote, his winning tools stick with our franchisees today.

Here are the scores on your session from our post meeting survey: 94% rated your session as excellent/good. Snippets from the open comments section: "Vince was a huge inspiration." - "Keynote speaker was excellent, great message." - "Motivation speaker was best yet." Several people just gave your name in response to the question about what they liked most about the meeting. In terms of long-term value, I've heard your name mentioned a few times this year among our sales teams during discussions about overcoming barriers they were facing. People have referenced your story as an example of doing whatever it takes and eliminating excuses from their mindset. Hearing a speaker's name and story 8 months after the speech is a great sign that you made an impact!

Vince is one of a select few speakers that I have asked to do a return presentation for my group. He is an entertaining, high-energy speaker who delivers great content in an easy-to-understand message. He prepares in advance by learning about my needs and the audience, and crafts his presentation to deliver key corporate messages in a way that they will be received well by the audience. His follow-up is great as well. He's definitely one of the best speakers out there.

Any speaker that starts his presentation standing on a chair, re-living his Olympic Speed Skiing past, has me from the word "Go!" Vince is engaging, energetic, and entertaining. The perfect combo for delivering a profound message with impact and clarity. I will never forget this presentation (in 2005 to the Cable Advertising Bureau), and especially how he brought it all home and made it relevant to our lives and our businesses. Well done sir.
