"Quite frankly David, I’m taken a back by how you were able to figure out in 45 minutes on the phone exactly what we had paid Ogilvy a lot of money to figure out, and with so little information. It’s incredible how quickly you did it."

"I got a LinkedIn message last night. At first I thought the subject line 'Tell me your secret of success!' was a scam, but the message was from a past co-worker asking how I
promoted my position to Director in only 3 years.
You and your lessons are a large part of the success she's referring to and looking to emulate.
You personify the famous saying about 'teaching a man to fish' . Then it's up to clients like me to take those tools and make use of them. All the best!"
-Letter from past coaching client
