Terry Watson is the "AHA guy", who makes people, companies and organizations large and small aware of the conscious and unconscious ways they sabotage their businesses and their lives. about-quote1Terry provides ridiculously effective and easily implementable strategies. In short, Terry gives your organization the tools your people need to get out of their own way while making them laugh till they snort in the process.

Terry is also a CSP, Certified Speaking Professional. The CSP is the speaking profession's International measure of speaking experience and skill, earned from the National Speakers Association. This is a really big deal since there are less than 600 speakers with the CSP designation in the universe. Fewer than 10 percent of the speakers who belong to the Global Speakers Federation (GSF) hold this professional designation. What this means is that your event is definitely not his first rodeo. You are working with a seasoned pro who speaks a lot.

If your attendees aren't often overheard in the halls saying, " I can't believe I didn't know that" or "I haven't laughed this hard in years" or "I am so glad I was here", Terry was not your speaker!

I was first introduced to Terry Watson's style of teaching/training/entertaining while attending a NAR Conference many years ago and I knew at that time my REALTOR Members in Southern Utah needed and deserved a presenter of his experience and expertise. And so began a professional relationship that has brought Terry to St.George on multiple occasions, the most recent being June 3, 2016. His message and his delivery is always spot on and resonates so well with our Education Retreat attendees. And if my opinion isn't sufficient, you should read the rave reviews he consistently receives on our event evaluations. We have always reserved the last day of our Retreat for Terry because we know he will end the two-day event on a high note and send our agents out with renewed energy and commitment, sometimes armed with new ideas and sometimes recommitted to proven methods and tactics. Perhaps the best testimonial I can provide is simply this - we will have Terry Watson back again!

After last month's luncheon speaker, Terry Watson, I was fired up, overwhelmed, and had 101 ideas on books to read, podcasts to listen to, apps to download and much more. I had two favorite take-a-ways. The first being "Stop being reasonable" or you will be ruled by unreasonable people. I'll leave that one alone, with 'nough said… The second take-a-way for me was monkey maintenance. If you were not there --- monkeys are the issues or problems we all carry around…aka the monkeys on our back. These curious little monkeys sneak into all aspects of our lives and mix things up. Terry also discussed how we attempt to give our monkeys to others, which led to his wonderful statement "Look at them and say…NOT MY MONKEY!!!"

Dear Terry, I hope you are well. Thank you for your presentation at the Charlotte, NC Realtor Expo. Years ago you spoke at the Expo and I have been sharing your story about "Don't let them put their monkey on your back" and the example of the Bear and cabin. Recently I was praying and asking God to tell me who this person was that came and shared...and there you were, standing before me at the Expo! Thank you very much for sharing ALL that you did with us. I knew it would be life-changing. I shared that with other agents prior to you speaking at the afternoon session.

I wanted to reach out to you for two amazing reasons today. Number one, I recieved a phone call from my mother today and I wanted to share the energy. She works for Berkshire Hathway Services, she's a REALTOR. She couldn't stop laughing explaining how much everything Terry spoke about, really clicked with her. In fact, a lot of it, she said, reminded her of me. I am also a Doctor of Chiropractic, leader, speaker, life coach, researcher and most of all MASSIVE INFLUENCER!! You have no idea how much I appreciate this. As her son, she doesn't seem to hear what I try to impart upon her, but hearing Terry has made a massive impact. I appreciate you and I look foward to having Terry speak at an event. She also mentioned Portland Oregon, which I live in Vancouver, WA. Second thing, is now you can add BHHS logo to your list of clients you spoke and work with :)

As I mentioned to you at the end of Day 2, yours is the first training class I've never had suggestions for improvement. You nailed it, sir! Your material kept me quite interested and wanting to hear more, your personal stories and examples helped to solidify the points you were making, and the sprinkling of humor throughout the two days was delightful. I love your energy and your passion for what you do. It shines through! You put everything you have into your presentation and it was noticed and very much appreciated. You are a class act! Thank you for helping me to expand my real estate knowledge. I'm looking forward to your return to Kansas City in November in which you will be teaching an ABR elective course. Safe travels and blessings to you as you continue to help others become even better!
