Testimonials
President at QuadTech
International Sales Conference
This past week we had Wayne spend a few hours with our Sales Team from around the world. Until then, I would describe our group as casual users of LinkedIn that weren't even scratching the surface of what was possible. The meeting was a huge hit! I now have an energized group that flew back to all corners of the world over the weekend and I'm seeing updates on profiles, new connections, groups being added, etc by the team because now they understand the power of the tool! Thanks Wayne!
Senior Manager of Chapter Relations at NAIOP
NAIOP
Wayne, volunteered to host a 90 minute Webinar about LinkedIn for the chapters of our association. He also spent a great deal of time with us in preparation for this Webinar, to be certain he addressed any and all of the specific issues we, as an association, might encounter. He was terrific to work with, received stellar feedback from attendees at the Webinar and inspired many of our chapters to begin or enhance their LinkedIn journey. An A+ performance and results! Thank you Wayne!
President at Investment Property Exchange Services, Inc.
National Sales Conference
My company, Fidelity National Title Group, conducted a Sales Rally for 150 of our Sales Executives and Managers for our Midwest operations. Wayne made us realize the power of LinkedIn and what it could do for our company not only in sales but recruiting. Wayne has an engaging and lively style that keeps your attention while he provides you with great information. Thanks Wayne!
Brand Manager at QuadTech
International Sales Conference
My company, QuadTech, invited Wayne to speak to our international sales team. In just a couple of hours, he opened our eyes to LinkedIn's unbelievable potential as a sales and marketing tool. Wayne is very entertaining and engaging, and you will be amazed at what you've been missing...especially if you're skeptical about social media. Wayne's presentation and book will change the way you do business. His book is the #1 bestselling book about LinkedIn in the world. There's good reason for that!
