Inspiring Bold Thinking, Igniting Business Growth
I am on a relentless mission to eradicate mediocrity and fear from small businesses. As a Certified Speaking Professional (CSP)—a designation earned by less than 7% of speakers worldwide—I bring real-world experience, infectious energy, and an unshakable commitment to helping businesses marketers, and sales professionals break free from self-imposed limitations.
For over 35 years, I have worked as a writer, consultant, and international speaker, delivering actionable strategies that drive real results. My approach is not based on theory but on hard-earned lessons—from nearly going bankrupt five times to building multimillion-dollar equity positions and earning over 50 industry awards for creative marketing campaigns. I’ve lived the struggles and the victories, and I help others do the same.
As a consultant, I provide motivation, marketing, and sales strategies to 850+ affiliate businesses and countless sales and marketing professionals. If you’re a business owner looking to exponentially grow your brand, drive sales, improve your marketing position, and stand out in your market, I can help.
As a speaker, my dynamic and engaging style challenges audiences to rethink the status quo, inspiring small businesses, franchise organizations, and industry leaders to push beyond limits and unlock their true potential.
